Non-Intrusive Pipe Temperature Measurement Solution
The Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp Temperature Sensor is designed for quick and easy installation on piping systems where traditional inserted temperature sensors may not be practical.
Unlike conventional temperature sensors requiring thermowells or process penetration, the Rosemount 0085 mounts directly onto the external pipe surface, allowing temperature monitoring without modifying the process piping. This makes it especially suitable for retrofit projects and applications where minimizing installation work is required.
Reliable Platinum RTD Technology
The Rosemount 0085 uses a platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensing element to deliver stable and accurate temperature measurement.
Key advantages include:
Platinum RTD sensing technology
Single or dual element configurations
Class A accuracy option
Excellent long-term stability
Reliable performance in industrial environments
The RTD design provides a highly linear resistance-temperature relationship, making it suitable for demanding process measurement applications.
Spring-Loaded Sensor Design for Improved Contact
The Rosemount 0085 Pipe Clamp Sensor features a spring-loaded sensor mechanism that maintains consistent contact between the sensing element and the pipe surface.
Benefits include:
Improved heat transfer efficiency
Faster temperature response
Reduced measurement variation
Better performance under vibration conditions
The silver or nickel sensor tip options further enhance response performance for different application requirements.
Easy Installation Without Pipe Modification
One of the main advantages of the Rosemount 0085 Temperature Sensor is its simplified installation method.
Compared with traditional temperature measurement solutions, it does not require:
Pipe drilling
Welding operations
Thermowell installation
Process shutdown
This reduces engineering effort, installation time and potential safety risks, especially in hazardous or difficult-to-access locations.
Flexible Clamp Options and Materials
The Rosemount 0085 provides multiple clamp configurations to meet different piping requirements.
Available options include:
Various clamp sizes
Stainless steel and other material options
Different connection head configurations
Direct transmitter assembly options
The flexible design allows installation across different pipe sizes and industrial environments.
