Temperature limits
Humidity limits
0–100 percent relative humidity
Turn-on time
Performance within specifications less than five seconds for
Rosemount 3051SMV (typical) after power is applied to the
transmitter.
Volumetric displacement
Less than 0.005 in

(0,08 cm

)
Damping
Analog output response to a step change is user-selectable
from 0 to 60 seconds for one time constant. Each variable
can be individually adjusted. This software damping is in
addition to sensor module response time.
Failure mode alarm
If self-diagnostics detect a gross transmitter failure, the
analog signal will be driven offscale to alert the user.
Rosemount standard (default), NAMUR, and custom alarm
levels are available (see Tab le A -4 ).
High or low alarm signal is software-selectable or
hardware-selectable via the optional switch (option D1).

1. CD display may not be readable and LCD display updates will be slower at
temperatures below –4 °F (–20 °C).
Storage
–50 to 185 °F (–46 to 85 °C)
with LCD display: –40 to 185 °F (–40 to 85 °C)
with wireless output: –40 to 185 °F (–40 to 85 °C)
Process temperature limits
At atmospheric pressures and above:
Silicone fill sensor
(2)(3)
2. Process temperatures above 185 °F (85 °C) require derating the ambient
limits by a 1.5:1 ratio. For example, for process temperature of 195 °F
(91 °C), new ambient temperature limit is equal to 170 °F (77 °C). This can be
determined as follows:
(195 °F –185 °F) ⫻ 1.5 = 15 °F,
185 °F–15 °F = 170 °F
3. 212 °F (100 °C) is the upper process temperature limit for DP Range 0.
with coplanar flange –40 to 250 °F (–40 to 121 °C)
