The Rosemount 3051SFC Wireless Compact Conditioning Orifice Plate Flow Meter delivers a best-in-class, cost-effective solution for precision multivariable measurements via a secure WirelessHART® network. This advanced flow meter features a patented 4-hole conditioning orifice plate designed to maintain high accuracy even in turbulent flow conditions. By significantly reducing pipe straight-run requirements—needing only two pipe diameters (2D) upstream and downstream—it offers unmatched installation flexibility and reduces total piping costs.
Engineered with the Ultra for Flow performance class, the 3051SFC achieves an optimized ±0.04% of reading accuracy. The device is built upon the all-welded, resilient SuperModule™ sensor platform, which provides industry-leading accuracy and stability in the harshest process environments. To ensure long-term peace of mind, this transmitter is backed by an up to 15-year limited warranty and offers a 200:1 rangedown to handle wide variations in flow rates.
The WirelessHART® technology ensures secure data transmission with greater than 99% reliability without the infrastructure costs of traditional wiring. Powering the device is the SmartPower™ module, providing up to 10 years of maintenance-free operation with the convenience of field replacement without removing the transmitter. This easy installation allows for the quick instrumentation of measurement points across any facility.
To streamline commissioning, every flow meter arrives fully configured, leak-tested, and ready to install right out of the box. The integrated technology eliminates unnecessary pipe penetrations, resulting in a trouble-free solution with fewer potential leak points. Additionally, the orifice plate includes self-centering mechanisms that simplify the installation process and ensure optimal measurement alignment.
