INTRODUCTION
The Series 380 BTU System from Badger Meter® provides
a low cost solution for metering cold or hot systems. The
380DS can accurately measure flow and temperature
differential to compute energy. Using BACnet™ or Modbus®
RS-485 communications protocols or a scaled pulse
output, the BTU System can interface with many existing
control systems.
The rugged design incorporates an impeller flow sensor
and two temperature probes. One temperature probe is
conveniently mounted directly in the flow sensor tee. The
second temperature probe is placed on either the supply or
the return line depending on installation requirements. These
minimal connections help simplify installation and save time.
The main advantage of the Series 380 BTU System is the cost
savings over other systems offered on the market today.
The integration of flow and temperature sensors, along with
metering components provide a single solution for metering.
With this system, it will be possible to meter energy where
metering had not cost effective.

Commissioning of this meter can be completed in the
field via a computer connection. Setup includes energy
measurement units, measurement method, communications
protocol, pulse output option, fluid density and specific
heat parameters.
Series 380
The 380 combines an electronics package with a PEEK sensor
probe inserted in a 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2" and 2" proprietary
cast bronze pipe tee with threaded NPT connections.
