Emerson Process Management Rosemount 3051 pressure instruments

Emerson Process Management has introduced a significant number of enhancements to its Rosemount 3051 pressure instruments. The first of the enhanced capabilities is a standard reference accuracy of ±0.04% of span down to a 10:1 turndown. This improvement drives the total performance in typical operating conditions to ±0.12% of span.

The Power Advisory Diagnostics feature is a predictive diagnostic tool that allows users to identify electrical loop issues, at the instrument or anywhere in the loop, before they cause a loss of measurement. With simple three-step activation and guided troubleshooting, users of all experience levels can easily implement this diagnostic to help prevent costly outages and minimise the time spent diagnosing and resolving the root cause of a measurement issue.

The company has added a local operator interface (LOI) to the product, designed with straightforward menus and both internal and external configuration buttons for on-the-spot commissioning - even in hazardous areas.

The enhanced instrument also offers selectable HART revision capability (HART5 and HART7) to deliver the latest features to those that are ready to take advantage of the latest HART revision while ensuring seamless integration with any installed host, asset management system or configuration tool.

The product now also offers SIL2 certification, allowing users to avoid extra shutdowns for safety testing. Emerson also provides full documentation for efficient SIS compliance. Users can add Power Advisory Diagnostics to SIL2-certified transmitters to improve safety throughout their entire electrical loop.
