Table 3-15: Centering Disc Size Recommendations for Rosemount 9901 Chambers
Chamber size Chamber rating Centering disc
3-in. Up to Class 600/PN 100 3-in.
Class 900, 1500/PN160, 250 2-in.
3-in. T-piece Up to Class 600/PN 100 2-in.
4-in. Up to Class 600/PN 100 4-in.
Class 900, 1500/PN160, 250 3-in.
To avoid bending the probe (rigid probes), or twisting and coming into contact with the
chamber wall (flexible probes), a small clearance distance between centering disc and
chamber bottom is recommended. The clearance distance of 1 in. (25 mm) is selected
with a dome shaped chamber bottom in mind, which may prevent the centering disc from
reaching the bottom.
