Materials: Non-wetted (clamp-on) — no material compatibility question at all · PFA Teflon (UltraFlo 1000 in-line) · Excluded by physics: magmeters require minimum conductivity 20 µS/cm (GF Signet 2551 and 2552), which hydrocarbons do not meet · GF Signet 2000 in-line micro flow rotor explicitly 'not recommended for strong oxidizers'
GF Signet 220/330 portable clamp-on ultrasonic (0.1-20 m/s, 135°C/275°F; works on PVDF-SYGEF, PP-PROGEF, PE-ELGEF, PB-INSTAFLEX, ABS, PVC-U/PVC-C, mild steel, ductile iron, SS316 and copper pipe) · GF Signet U1000 fixed clamp-on (0.1-20 m/s, 85°C/185°F) · GF Signet U3000-U4000 fixed clamp-on (0.1-20 m/s, 135°C/275°F, flagged suitable for high purity) · Icon UltraFlo 500 clamp-on (Teflon epoxy-coated aluminum, ±2%, 1/2"-10", 14-122°F) · Icon UltraFlo 1000 in-line (PFA Teflon, ±1%, 3/8"-1", 100 psi, -40 to 248°F, no dead volume flared tube connections)

This cell matters as an exclusion, not an inclusion: the corpus's own specs rule out most of the flow-instrumentation catalog for this family. Signet's 2551 and 2552 both state a 20 µS/cm minimum conductivity, so they physically cannot meter a hydrocarbon. What is left is clamp-on ultrasonic (zero wetted parts, so compatibility is moot) or a fluoropolymer in-line ultrasonic. Signet's recurring guidance also applies: for multi-material systems the maximum temperature/pressure spec must always be referenced to the component with the lowest rating.
