Configuration
2. Select 405C/3051SFC.
3. Enter the Measured Meter Tube Diameter (pipe ID) at a Reference Temperature. If the meter tube
diameter cannot be measured, select a Nominal Pipe Size and Pipe Schedule to input an estimated
value for the meter tube diameter (U.S. units only).
4. If necessary, edit the Meter Tube Material.
5. Enter the Line Size and select the Beta of the Conditioning Orifice Plate. The required primary element
sizing parameters will be different depending on what primary element is selected.
6. If necessary, select a Primary Element Material from the drop-down menu.
7. A calibration factor may be entered if a calibrated primary element is being used.
Note
A Joule-Thomson Coefficient can be enabled to compensate for the difference in process temperature
between the orifice plate location and the process temperature measurement point. The Joule-Thomson
Coefficient is available with ASME MFC-3M-2 (2004) or ISO 5167-2.2003 (E) orifice plates used with
Database Gases, Superheated Steam, or AGA DCM/ISO Molar Composition Natural Gas. For more
information on the Joule-Thomson Coefficient, reference the appropriate orifice plate standard.
8. Select Next > to advance to the Save/Send Configuration tab.
Note
To be in compliance with appropriate national or international standards, beta ratios and differential
producer diameters should be within the limits as listed in the applicable standards. The Engineering
Assistant software will alert the user if a primary element value exceeds these limits, but will allow the
user to proceed with the flow configuration.
2.4.8 Save/send
The Save/Send Configuration tab shown in Figure 2-11 on page 16 allows the user to view, save, and send
the configuration information to the Rosemount 3051SMV with the fully compensated mass and energy
flow feature board.
1. Review the information under the Flow Configuration heading and Device Configuration heading.
