Q1. What is the Rosemount 3051CFA Gas Flow Indicator?
A: It is a differential pressure-based Annubar™ flow meter designed for accurate measurement of gas, steam, and liquid flow. It combines a Rosemount 3051S/3051C transmitter with an Annubar primary element for reliable, high-performance flow monitoring.
Q2. What measurement principle does it use?
A: It uses the differential pressure principle across a patented T-shaped Annubar sensor, which creates a pressure drop proportional to flow rate.
Q3. What is the accuracy of the 3051CFA?
A: Typical accuracy is ±0.55% of the rate for flow measurement, depending on installation and calibration.
Q4. What is the turndown ratio (rangeability)?
A: Up to 150:1 range down (with 8:1 flow turndown), allowing it to handle a wide range of flow conditions.
Q5. What communication protocols are supported?
A: Standard options include 4–20 mA HART®, WirelessHART®, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus, PROFIBUS® PA, and Low Power HART®.
Q6. What line sizes can it be installed on?
A: Suitable for pipe sizes from 2 to 96 inches (50 to 2440 mm).
Q7. What are the wetted materials available?
A: Common options include 316L Stainless Steel, Alloy C-276, Monel, and Titanium, depending on process compatibility.
Q8. What industries typically use the 3051CFA?
A: Oil & gas, chemical, power generation, refining, and general industrial applications where accurate flow measurement of gas, steam, or liquids is required.
Q9. What are the key advantages compared to traditional flow meters?
A:
Q10. What warranty is offered?
A: Emerson provides up to a 5-year limited warranty on the 3051CFA.
