Fuel Flow Meter
The meter shall be of the volumetric measurement type incorporating a
rotary, positive displacement piston body with gear train driven generator
and totalizing register, a panel-mounting meter to indicate fuel oil rate
of flow in gallons per minute, and a transmitter output signal of 4 to 20
mA dc to be used for combustion control. The meter body shall be bronze
with hard-cast bronze measuring piston. The generator shall be totally

Water Flow Meter
Water flow recorder with totalizer shall be provided for each generator.
Recorder shall otherwise conform to the requirements specified for the HTW
temperature recorder except that flow rates will be recorded in L/sec gpm.
2.5.13
Btu Recorder
Each HTW generator shall be provided with a recording totalizer which shall
integrate temperature difference and water flow to provide the net J Btu
output of the generator.
2.5.14
Makeup Water Meter
A makeup water meter shall be provided in the treated water line. The
meter shall be of the positive displacement type and shall be suitable for
operation with water at 21 degrees C 70 degrees F and 450 kPa 65 psig. The
complete meter assembly shall include meter isolation valves and a valved
bypass and strainer on the inlet side of the meter. The dial shall be
