This guide provides basic guidelines for installing the Rosemount 405. It does not provide instructions
for configuration, diagnostics, maintenance, service, troubleshooting, explosion-proof, flameproof, or
intrinsically safe (I.S.) installations. Refer to the Rosemount 405 Reference Manual for more
information.
If the Rosemount 405 was ordered assembled to a Rosemount 3051S Transmitter, the new assembly is
the Rosemount 3051SFC Compact Flow Meter. See Rosemount 3051S Quick Start Guide for
information on configuration and hazardous locations certifications.
If the Rosemount 405 was ordered assembled to a Rosemount 3051S MultiVariable Transmitter, the
new assembly is the Rosemount 3051SFC Compact Flow Meter. See Rosemount 3051SMV Quick Start
Guide for information on configuration and hazardous locations certifications.

WARNING
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
To avoid process leaks, only use the gasket and O-ring designed to seal with the corresponding flange
adapter.
WARNING
Physical access
Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or misconfiguration of end
users’ equipment. This could be intentional or unintentional and needs to be protected against.
Physical security is an important part of any security program and fundamental to protecting your
system. Restrict physical access by unauthorized personnel to protect end users’ assets. This is true for
all systems used within the facility.

Note
Recommended lengths are represented in pipe diameters. If longer lengths
of straight run are available, position the Rosemount 405 so 80 percent of
the pipe run is upstream and 20 percent is downstream. Flow conditioners
may be used to reduce the required straight run length, improving
performance.

2Primary element orientation
The primary element can be installed in any position around the
circumference of the pipe, provided the vents are positioned properly for
bleeding or venting. Optimal results for liquid or steam in a vertical line are
obtained when flow is up.

Note
For the Rosemount 405A model in steam applications, with DP readings in a
low flow condition as low as 0.75 inH2O in horizontal pipes consider
installing the primary element/flow meter in the top mounting for steam
configuration.
2.1Top mounting for steam
Top mounting in steam is an alternative mounting method for steam
installations that can be used if there are space restrictions or other
concerns.
This installation method is intended for applications that run with limited
interruptions or shutdowns. Also, for outdoor applications, top mounting
can eliminate the need for heat tracing if steam is flowing.

A. Recommended zone 60°
Note
For the Rosemount 405A in wet steam applications, do not mount the flow
meter at the direct vertical position. Mounting at an angle will avoid
measurement inaccuracy due to water running along the bottom of the
pipe.

405C, 405P, and 405A
Note
When top mounting with a remote mount transmitter, use enough impulse
piping to dissipate the process heat to avoid damaging the transmitter.
Suggested top mounting orientations:
Quick Start Guide11
Quick Start GuideFebruary 2022
• For steam up to 400 °F (204 °C), use direct mount orientation, and for
steam up to 850 °F (454 °C), use remote mount orientation.
• For direct mounting, ambient temperature should be less than 100 °F
(38 °C).
• For remote mount installations, the impulse piping should slope up
slightly from the instrument connections on the Rosemount 405A to the
cross fittings, allowing condensate to drain back into the pipe.
From the cross fittings, the impulse piping should be routed downward to
the transmitter and the drain legs. The transmitter should be located below
the instrument connections of the Rosemount 405A.
For technologies C, P, and A, depending on the environmental conditions, it
may be necessary to insulate the mounting hardware.

3Primary element installation
Procedure
1. Orient the assembly according to the guidelines provided in Primary
element orientation.
Ensure that the flow arrow stamped on the Rosemount 405 is
pointing in the same direction as the process flow.
Note
ANSI 150 - 600# alignment ring is included as standard when
ordering for up to 8-in line sizes.
• For the 10-in and 12-in line size, you must order the alignment
ring.
• If a DIN or JIS alignment ring is required, order it with the primary
element.
Contact an Emerson sales representative for additional information.
Note
For ease of installation, you can secure the gasket to the flange face
with small pieces of tape. Be sure the gasket or tape does not
protrude into the pipe.
2. If using an alignment ring with through holes, proceed to Step 7.
3. Insert two studs through the flange holes located opposite the head
of the Rosemount 405.
4. Place the alignment ring on the Rosemount 405 body.
See Figure 3-1.
5. Insert gaskets.
6. Insert the Rosemount 405 between the flanges so the indentations
on the alignment ring contact the installed studs.
The studs must contact the alignment ring in the indentation marked
with the appropriate flange rating to ensure proper alignment.
7. Place the alignment ring on the Rosemount 405 body.
See Figure 3-1.
8. Insert the Rosemount 405 between the flanges.
a) Starting on the side opposite the Rosemount 405 head,
rotate the alignment ring such that the radius corresponding
to the alignment ring marking matches that of the
application flange rating.
Quick Start Guide13
Quick Start GuideFebruary 2022
b) Insert one stud through both the upstream and downstream
flanges and allow the ring to rest on the bolt. This will ensure
proper alignment.
9. Repeat Step 8 for the installation of the remaining bolts that will
contact the alignment ring.
10. Insert gaskets.
11. Install remaining studs and nuts (hand tight). Ensure three of the
studs are in contact with the alignment ring.
12. Lubricate studs and tighten nuts in a cross pattern to the appropriate
torque per local standards.
Note
We recommend using standard 1/16-in gaskets with the Rosemount
405. Using other gaskets could potentially cause a bias shift in the
measurement.
3.1Recommended insulation guidelines
For flow meters with integral temperature assembly, it is recommended that
the meter be insulated when the difference between process and ambient
temperature is greater than 30 °F (16.6 °C).
• For line sizes ½-in (15 mm) to 4-in (100 mm), we recommend having 4-in
(100 m) of insulation of at least a 4.35 R-factor.
• For line sizes 6-in (150 mm) to 12-in (300 mm), we recommend having
5-in (125 mm) of insulation of at least a 4.35 R-factor.
The full thickness stated above may not be necessary for the entire flow
meter, but is required for the temperature sensor area at a minimum.
Insulation is needed to ensure meeting our specified temperature
measurement accuracy. Only place insulation up to the neck; do not cover
the transmitter.
