Water high volume flow meter

Guys,

did anyone came across a water flow meter for +/- 240L/min? Most i find is 30L/min.

Thanks in advance

Guess it depends much on the pipe dimensions used.

The pump of my swimming pool can do 240L/min, the pipe diameter is 35mm.

this is over 14m3/h of water, this is a lot. Are you sure about that?
you can find a flow meter up to 120L/min for 1.5" pipe, but 240 is like industrial size for me.

They are available, but not cheap. Here are some examples for the North American market: http://www.jerman.com/dljcmeters.html.

Here's one on AliExpress that can do 200 l/m: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/YF-DN50-2-inch-Large-diameter-turbine-flow-meter-water-flow-sensor-industrial-flow-meter-Available/32297810863.html?spm=2114.40010208.4.71.i72mzF. Not sure if I would trust it though.
