Rosemount 2051L Flange Diaphragm Level Transmitter




1. General Description
The Rosemount 2051L Flange Diaphragm Level Transmitter is part of the Rosemount 2051L family. Engineers design it for level measurement in tough industrial settings. It offers good stability for accurate readings.
We call this device the Rosemount 2051L Liquid Level Transmitter. It measures the level and specific gravity of liquids, slurries, powders, and granular materials. It does this accurately.
As a flange-mounted liquid level transmitter, it supports a wide variety of process applications while offering excellent protection. The flange diaphragm design protects the transmitter diaphragm from corrosive, erosive, or extreme temperature processes, ensuring long-term reliability.
The 2051L works well with modern systems. It supports the Tuned-System™ Level assembly for better performance in tough process conditions.
2. How accurate is the Rosemount 2051 pressure transmitter?
The Rosemount 2051 Pressure Transmitter series provides high accuracy across multiple applications:
l 2051C: ±0.10% of span (standard), ±0.065% (high performance)
l 2051T: ±0.065% of span (standard), ±0.05% (high performance)
l Rosemount 2051L: ±0.075% of span
These transmitters, including the Rosemount 2051 Pressure Transmitter family, maintain excellent measurement stability for reliable process control.
3. What is the difference between Rosemount 2051 and 3051?
The Rosemount 2051 offers reliable accuracy (±0.075% of span) for general industrial applications and level measurement tasks.
The Rosemount 3051 offers better accuracy, with a range of up to ±0.04% of span. It also has improved diagnostics for better predictive maintenance and real-time performance monitoring.
4. What is the pressure range?
l 2051C: Differential/gauge pressure 0.5 inH₂O to 2000 psi
l 2051T: Absolute/gauge pressure 0.3 psi to 10,000 psi
l Rosemount 2051L: Designed for level and specific gravity measurement with ranges up to 300 psi
l 2051HT: For hygienic applications up to 800 psig or 150 psia
Each model ensures stable and accurate readings for its intended environment.
5. What is the turndown ratio of the Rosemount 2051?
The Rosemount 2051 family offers a turndown ratio capable of measuring down to roughly 12% of the maximum range. Actual turndown varies per model (gauge, absolute, differential). Always refer to the specific datasheet for precise values.
