Quick Start Guide
NOTICE
This guide provides basic guidelines for Rosemount 3051SMV FOUNDATION Fieldbus Transmitters. It does not
provide instructions for configuration, diagnostics, maintenance, service, troubleshooting, Explosion-Proof,
Flame-Proof, or intrinsically safe (I.S.) installations. Refer to the Rosemount 3051SMV F
OUNDATION Fieldbus
Reference Manual
for more instruction. This manual is also available electronically on
EmersonProcess.com/Rosemount
.
Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety of the
personnel performing the operation. Information that raises potential safety issues is indicated with a
warning symbol ( ). Refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation preceded by
this symbol.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Installation of this transmitter in an explosive environment must be in accordance with the appropriate local,
national, and international standards, codes, and practices. Review the approvals section of the Rosemount
3051SMV F
OUNDATION Fieldbus Reference Manual for any restrictions associated with a safe installation.
Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure the instruments in the
segment are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
In an Explosion-proof/Flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter covers when power is
applied to the unit.
Process leaks may cause harm or result in death.
Install and tighten process connectors before applying pressure.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical
shock.
Conduit/cable entries
Unless marked, the conduit/cable entries in the transmitter housing use a
1
/2–14 NPT thread form. Entries
marked “M20” are M20 ⫻ 1.5 thread form. On devices with multiple conduit entries, all entries will have
the same thread form. Only use plugs, adapters, glands, or conduit with a compatible thread form when
closing these entries.
When installing in a hazardous location, use only appropriately listed or Ex certified plugs, adapters, or
glands in cable/conduit entries.
