Shipping considerations for wireless products (Lithium Batteries: Green Power Module,
model number 701PGNKF):
The unit was shipped to you without the Power Module installed. Please remove the
Power Module from the unit prior to shipping.
Each power module contains one “D” size primary lithium/thionyl chloride battery.
Primary lithium batteries are regulated in transportation by the U.S. Department of
Transportation, and are also covered by IATA (International Air Transport Association),
ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), and ARD (European Ground
Transportation of Dangerous Goods). It is the responsibility of the shipper to ensure
compliance with these or any other local requirements. Please consult current
regulations and requirements before shipping.
The power module with the wireless unit contains one “D” size primary lithium/thionyl
chloride battery (Green Power Module, model number 701PGNKF). Each battery contains
approximately 5.0 grams of lithium. Under normal conditions, the battery materials are
self-contained and are not reactive as long as the battery and the pack integrity are
maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical or mechanical damage.
Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge.
Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.
Power modules should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximum battery life, storage
temperature should not exceed 30 °C (86 °F).
The Power Module may be replaced in a hazardous area. The Power Module has surface
resistivity greater than one gigaohm and must be properly installed in the wireless device
enclosure. Care must be taken during transportation to and from the point of installation to
prevent electrostatic charge build-up.
Using the Rosmeount 3051 Wireless Pressure Transmitter in a manner other than what is
specified by the menufacturer may impair the protection provided by the equipment.

Introduction
1.4 Transmitter overview
The Rosemount 3051C Coplanar design is offered for Differential Pressure (DP), Gage Pressure
(GP) and Absolute Pressure (AP) measurements. The Rosemount 3051C utilizes capacitance
sensor technology for DP and GP measurements. The Rosemount 3051T and 3051CA utilize
piezoresistive sensor technology for AP and GP measurements.
The major components of the Rosemount 3051 Wireless transmitter are the sensor module and
the electronics housing. The sensor module contains the oil filled sensor system (isolating
diaphragms, oil fill system, and sensor) and the sensor electronics. The sensor electronics are
installed within the sensor module and include a temperature sensor, a memory module, and
the analog to digital signal converter (A/D converter). The electrical signals from the sensor
module are transmitted to the output electronics in the electronics housing. The electronics
housing contains the output electronics board, the wireless antenna, and the battery. The basic
block diagram of the Rosemount 3051CD Wireless device is illustrated in Figure X-X on page X.
For the Rosemount 3051, pressure is applied to the isolating diaphragm(s). The oil deflects the
sensor which then changes its capacitance or voltage signal. This signal is then changed to a
digital signal by the Signal Processing. The microprocessor then takes the signals from the
Signal Processing and calculates the correct output of the transmitter. This signal is then sent via
wireless communication to the Gateway.
An optional LCD can be ordered that connects directly to the interface board which maintains
direct access to the signal terminals. The display indicates output and abbreviated diagnostic
messages. A glass display cover is provided. For WirelessHART output, the LCD Display features a
two-line display. The first line displays the actual measured value, the second line of six
characters displays the engineering units. The LCD can also display diagnostics messages.
Note
LCD Display utilizes a 5x6 character display and can display output and diagnostic messages. See
Figure 1-2.

1.5 Considerations before transmitter installation
1.5.1 Wireless considerations
Power up sequence
The Smart Wireless Gateway (Gateway) should be installed and functioning properly before any
wireless devices are powered. Install the power module, SmartPower Solutions, model number
701PGNKF green power module, into the 3051 to power the device. This results in a simpler and
faster network installation. Enabling Active Advertising on the Gateway ensures that new
devices are able to join the network faster. For more information see the Smart Wireless
Gateway Reference Manual (Document No. 00809-0200-4420).
Antenna position
The antenna is internal to the pressure transmitter. To achieve optimal range, orient the
transmitter with the sensor horizontal and the power module closest to the ground as shown in
Figure X-X. Good connectivity can also be achieved in other orientations. The antenna should

also be approximately 1 m (3 ft.) from any large structure, building, or conductive surface to
allow for clear communication to other devices. Refer to best practices for additional
information on optimal mounting locations of device.
Recommended practices
When mounting the device, recommended practices should be considered to achieve the best
wireless performance. See Appendix X for more information on recommended practices.
1.5.2 Mechanical
Location
When choosing an installation location and position, take into account access to the power
module compartment for easy power module replacement
Electronics Cover
The electronics cover is tightened so that polymer contacts polymer. When removing the
electronics cover, ensure that there is no damage done to the o-ring. If damaged replace before
reattaching cover, ensuring polymer contacts polymer.
1.5.3 Electrical
Power Module
The Rosemount 3051 Wireless Pressure Transmitter is self-powered. The power module
contains one "D" size primary lithium/thionyl chloride battery (Green Power Module, model
number 701PGNKF). Each battery contains approximately 5.0 grams of lithium. Under normal
conditions, the battery materials are self-contained and are not reactive as long as the battery
and the power module are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical, or
mechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge.
Use caution when handling the power module, it may be damaged if dropped from heights in
excess of 6.10 m (20 ft).
1.5.4 Environmental
Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations certifications.
Temperature Effects
The transmitter will operate within specifications for ambient temperatures between -40 and 85
°C (-40 and 185 °F).
Heat from the process is transferred to the transmitter housing. If the process temperature is
high, the ambient temperature will need to be lower to account for heat transferred to the
transmitter housing. See Table 1-1 on page 1-7 for process temperature derating.
