NOTICE

This guide provides basic guidelines for Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp Sensor. It does not provide instructions
for configuration, diagnostics, maintenance, service, troubleshooting, explosion-proof, flameproof, or
intrinsically safe (I.S.) installations. Refer to the Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp Sensor Reference Manual
instruction. The manual and guide are also available electronically on Emerson.com/Rosemount

If the Rosemount 0085 Sensor was ordered assembled to a temperature transmitter, see the appropriate Quick
Start Guide for information on configuration and hazardous locations certifications.

1.0 Location and orientation

The pipe clamp sensor should be mounted on the outside section of the pipe
where the process medium is in contact of the inside of the pipe wall. Ensure
that the pipe surface is clean of debris. The pipe clamp sensor should be
mounted in a secure position to ensure there is no rotational movement after
installation. To ensure ingress protection, the nut of the Rosemount 0085 Pipe
Clamp sensor can be tightened to compress the O-ring to form a seal. The nut
can be accessed and tightened by removing the sensor and the nipple union of
the extension. Refer to “Location and orientation” on page 3 for the location of
each part.

1.1 Horizontal orientation

Though the Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp sensor can be mounted in any
orientation for full pipe flow applications, the best practice is to mount the pipe
clamp sensor on the upper half of the pipe. Refer to Figure 2 for more
information.

1.2 Vertical orientation

The pipe clamp sensor can be installed in any position around the circumference
of the pipe.

1.3 Special considerations

Under most circumstances, the Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp Sensor can be
mounted in a direct mount configuration. Since heat from the process is
transferred from the pipe clamp sensor to the transmitter housing, if the
expected process temperature is near or beyond specification limits, consider
using a remote mount configuration to isolate the transmitter from the process.
Refer to the appropriate transmitter reference manual for temperature effects.

Quick Start Guide

Wireless transmitters with external antennas allow for multiple antenna
configurations. All wireless transmitter should be appropriately 3 ft. (1 m) from
any large structure or building to allow clear communication to other devices.
Wireless transmitters with external antennas should be positioned vertically,
either straight up or straight down.

2.0 Install pipe clamp sensor

Select the area for pipe clamp sensor installation with the recommendations
outlined in “Horizontal orientation” on page 3. Mount the pipe clamp sensor on
the pipe and snug tighten the bolts. Ensure the sensor passes through the hole
of the pipe clamp and has direct contact between the sensor tip and pipe. Refer
to Figure 4 on page 5 for more information. Tighten the bolts to secure the pipe
clamp sensor to the pipe.
