These three are all part of the Rosemount 3051CF series differential pressure flowmeters, and the core differences lie in the measuring elements and applicable pipe diameters.

1. 3051CFA - Annubar Flowmeter

 

* Measuring Element: Insert-type T-type Pitot Tube

3051CFA - Annubar Flowmeter

 

* Pipe Diameter: DN50 - DN900 (Large Pipe Diameter)

* Features:

Insert installation, minimal pressure loss

Can be installed and disassembled online

Suitable for large pipeline gases, steam, and liquids

* Application Scenarios: Large pipe diameter, energy saving, renovation projects

 

2. 3051CFC - Compact Adjustable Orifice Plate

* Measuring Element: Conditioning Orifice

3051CFC - Compact Adjustable Orifice Plate

* Pipe Diameter: DN15 - DN50 (Medium and Small Pipe Diameters)

* Features:

Extremely short straight pipe sections (2D before and 1D after)

Anti-interference, stable accuracy

Integrated compact type

* Application Scenarios: Space is limited, insufficient straight pipe sections, complex working conditions

3. 3051CFP - Integrated Orifice Plate Flowmeter

* Measuring Element: Self-centering Standard Orifice Plate

3051CFP - Integrated Orifice Plate Flowmeter

 

* Pipe Diameter: DN15 - DN40 (Special for Small Pipe Diameters)

* Features:

Factory-installed entire pipe, high accuracy (1.75%)

Optimal for small diameters, no leakage

Ready for installation

* Application Scenarios: Small diameters, high accuracy, chemical / water treatment

 

Quick selection mnemonic:

* For large pipe diameters and energy conservation needs → Choose CFA

* With limited space and short straight pipe sections → Choose CFC

* For small diameters and high precision requirements → Choose CFP
