Rosemount 3051N
Mounting
The Rosemount 3051N Pressure Transmitter weighs approximately 6.0 lb 
(2,7 kg) without additional options. For complete weight information, including 
options, see “Physical Specifications” in Section 5. Optional mounting 
brackets available with the Rosemount 3051N allow mounting to a panel or 
wall. The B4 Bracket Option for use with the Coplanar flange is 316 SST and 
provided with 316 SST bolts.
Bracket option B2 is a polyurethane painted carbon steel bracket designed for 
use in panel mounting the traditional flange (H2). The B2 bracket is provided 
with carbon steel bolts.
Bracket option BS is a 316LSST bracket provided with carbon steel bolts that 
is designed for use in panel mounting the traditional flange (option code H2). 
It is the same bracket used on other Rosemount Nuclear Instruments, Inc. 
nuclear qualified transmitters, including the Rosemount 1153 Series D and 
Rosemount 1154.
Bracket option PM is a SST pipe mount bracket assembly designed for use in 
pipe mounting the traditional Flange (option code H2). It is the same bracket 
used on other Rosemount Nuclear Instruments, Inc. nuclear qualified 
transmitters, including the Rosemount 1154 Series H.
When installing the transmitter to the mounting bracket, torque the mounting 
bolts to 21 ft.-lbs.
Dimensions and typical mounting configurations are contained in this section.
NOTE
The transmitter is calibrated in an upright position at the factory. If you mount 
the transmitter in any other position, the zero point will shift by an amount 
equivalent to the liquid head caused by the varied mounting position. To reset 
the zero point, refer to “Sensor Trim” in Section 2.
Mounting Requirements
Liquid Flow Measurement
Place taps to the side of the line to prevent sediment deposits on the 
transmitter’s process isolators.
Mount the transmitter beside or below the taps so gases can vent into 
the process line.
Mount drain/vent valve upward to allow gases to vent.
Gas Flow Measurement
Place taps in the top or side of the line.
Mount the transmitter beside or above the taps so liquid will drain into 
the process line.
Steam Flow Measurement
Place taps to the side of the line.
Mount the transmitter below the taps to ensure that the impulse piping 
will stay filled with condensate.
Fill impulse lines with water to prevent the steam from contacting the 
transmitter directly and to ensure accurate measurement start-up.
