<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Reference is made to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (&#147;<B>Registration Statement</B>&#148;) filed by Roper Industries, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the &#147;<B>Company</B>&#148;), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;<B>Commission</B>&#148;) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;<B>Securities Act</B>&#148;), on or about the date
hereof. The Registration Statement relates to the registration for issuance pursuant to the Roper Industries, Inc. 2006 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the &#147;<B>Plan</B>&#148;), of 11,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per
share, of the Company (&#147;<B>Common Stock</B>&#148;). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I am Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary for the Company
and have acted in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement. I have been requested to furnish an opinion to be included as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In conjunction with the furnishing of this opinion, I have
examined such corporate documents and have made such investigation of matters of fact and law as I have deemed necessary to render this opinion. The opinions set forth herein are subject to the following qualifications, which are in addition to any
other qualifications contained herein: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A. I have assumed without verification the genuineness of all signatures on all
documents, the authority of the parties (other than the Company) executing such documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as copies.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">B. The opinions set forth herein are based on existing laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and judicial and administrative
decisions as they presently have been interpreted, and I can give no assurances that my opinions would not be different after any change in any of the foregoing occurring after the date hereof. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">C. I express no opinion as to the effect or application of any laws or regulations other than the Delaware General Corporation Law as in
effect on this date. I am not a member of the Bar of the State of Delaware and have not obtained any opinions of local counsel. As to such matters, I have relied exclusively on the latest standard compilation of such statute as reproduced in
commonly accepted unofficial publications available to me. </FONT></P>

documents I have examined and the matters investigated referred to above, I am of the opinion that the shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan and subject to the Registration Statement have been duly authorized by the Company and that, when
issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Plan and for lawful consideration as determined pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, such shares of Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This letter is given for the sole benefit and use of the Company and does not address any matters other than
