Quick Start Guide
1.0 About this guide
This start guide provides basic guidelines for the Rosemount 3300 Level
Transmitter. Refer to Rosemount 3300 Level Transmitter Reference Manual for
more instructions. The manual and this Quick Start Guide (QSG) are also
available electronically on Emerson.com/Rosemount.
Any substitution of non-authorized parts or repair, other than exchanging the complete transmitter
head or probe assembly, may jeopardize safety and is prohibited.
Unauthorized changes to the product are strictly prohibited as they may unintentionally and unpredictably
alter performance and jeopardize safety. Unauthorized changes that interfere with the integrity of the welds or
flanges, such as making additional perforations, compromise product integrity and safety. Equipment ratings
and certifications are no longer valid on any products that have been damaged or modified without the prior
written permission of Emerson™Automation Solutions. Any continued use of product that has been damaged
or modified without prior written authorization is at the customer's sole risk and expense.
Failure to follow safe installation and service guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure only qualified personnel perform installation or service.
Use the equipment only as specified in this QSG and the Reference Manual. Failure to do so may impair the
protection provided by the equipment.
Do not perform any services other than those contained in this manual unless you are qualified.
Flamepath joints are not for repair. Contact the manufacturer.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate hazardous
locations specifications. See Product Certifications on page 20 in this Quick Start Guide.
In an Explosion-proof/Flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter covers when power is applied
to the unit.
Before connecting a HART®-based Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in
the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
To avoid process leaks, only use o-rings designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical
shock.
Make sure the main power to the Rosemount 3300 Level Transmitter is off and the lines to any other external
power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.
Temperature restrictions apply for Explosion-proof versions. For limits, see certificate-specific information in the
Product Certification chapter in this document.

The electronics enclosures are category 2G or 2D equipment. The probes not covered with plastic and not
made of titanium, are category 1G or 1D. The plastic covered probes or probes made of titanium, are only
category 1G equipment.
Probes with non-conducting surfaces and light metals.
Probes covered with plastic and/or with plastic discs may generate an ignition- capable level of electrostatic
charge under certain extreme conditions. Therefore, when the probe is used in a potentially explosive
atmosphere, appropriate measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharge. These probes are not
allowed in dust classified areas.
The following probes do not contain plastic or PTFE material, and are allowed to be placed in a Dust
classified area:
The Material of Construction Code in the above table can be found in the following position in the Rosemount
3300 Level Transmitter model code: 330xxxxxN...
Probes and flanges containing >7.5% Magnesium or Zirconium are not allowed in explosive dust
atmosphere. Please contact Rosemount Tank Radar for additional information.
Probes and flanges containing light metals.
When used in category 1/2G installations, probes and flanges containing Titanium or Zirconium must be
mounted in such a way that sparks from impact or friction between these parts and steel cannot occur.

3.0 Set jumpers and switches
If alarm and security jumpers are not set, the transmitter operates with the
default alarm condition HIGH and Security OFF.
Write Protection must be set after configuration (“Configure” on page 15).
To set Alarm and Write Protection on the circuit board:
1. Remove the cover on the circuit side (see label marked circuit side).
2. To set the 4-20 mA alarm output to LOW, move the alarm switch to the LOW
position.
3. To enable the security write protection feature, move the write protect
switch to the ON position.
4. Replace the cover and tighten securely.
To set Alarm and Write Protection on the LCD display:
To have the LCD display override the circuit board settings, the write protection switch needs to be in the OFF
position and the alarm switch needs to be in the HIGH position.
1. To set the 4-20 mA alarm output to LOW, place jumper between the right
and center hole position.
2. To enable the security write protection feature, place jumper between the
left and center hole position - ON.

4.0 Connect the wiring
For HART, the input voltage is 11-42 V (11-30 V in IS applications, 16-42 V in
Explosion-proof / Flameproof applications). For Modbus®, the input voltage is
8-30 V.
The transmitter requires shielded twisted pair wiring (18-12 AWG) suitable for
the supply voltage and, if applicable, approved for use in hazardous areas.
4.1 Cable/conduit entries
The electronics housing has two entries for ½ - 14 NPT. Optional M20×1.5 and
PG 13.5 adapters are also available. The connections are made in accordance
with local or plant electrical codes.
Make sure that unused ports are properly sealed to prevent moisture or other
contamination from entering the terminal block compartment of the
electronics housing.
Note
Remove any orange caps that may be attached. Use the enclosed metal plug to seal the
unused port.

5.0 Configure
If the transmitter is pre-configured at the factory, this section is only necessary
to change or verify the settings.
Configuration of the Rosemount 3300 Level Transmitter can be done either with
a Field Communicator, the AMS Device Manager, or Radar Configuration Tools
(RCT). If using the Radar Configuration Tools, a HART modem is required, and
the procedure is described below, together with the corresponding Field
Communicator Fast Key sequence.
5.1 Installing the Radar Configuration Tools (RCT) software
To install the RCT software:
1. Insert the installation CD into your CD-ROM drive.
2. Follow the instructions. If the installation program does not automatically
start, run Setup.exe from the CD.
5.2 Starting RCT
Select Programs > Rosemount > RCT, and the following window appears(1)
The Help function of the RCT can be reached from the menu or by pressing the
F1 key.
1. For optimum performance set COM Port Buffers to 1. You might receive a pop-up reminder of this before the RCT
window appears. See Chapter 4 “Start-up” in the Rosemount 3300 Level Transmitter Reference Manual.
