Introduction Technology to redefine reliability The Rosemount 5408
and 5408:SIS are optimized for reliable and accurate performance
even in challenging process conditions. FMCW technology maximizes
radar signal strength and produces a robust and reliable
measurement. The transmitters are self-powered for up to two
seconds to maintain operation despite cable glitches or lightning.
The minimum lift-off voltage is 9 Vdc for FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus and
12 Vdc for HART® . Ease-of-use at every touch point The Rosemount
5408 and 5408:SIS are designed to simplify operator tasks. They
deliver ease-of-use at every touch point, from the pictorial user
instructions and graphical intuitive wizards to the PTFE seal that
requires no O-ring material for simplifying model selection.
Dedicated to safety The Smart Diagnostics Suite provides operators
with early alerts in case of antenna build-up, weak power supply,
or abnormal surface conditions. Also, a local memory enables full
insight into the l5408 Series June 2023 2 Emerson.com/Rosemount The
Rosemount 5408:SIS is the ideal choice for functional safety such
as overfill prevention. It is safety certified (SIL 2/SIL 3),
supports long proof-test intervals guaranteed to suit your
schedule, and can be tested remotely without any process
interruption. Application examples The Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS
are ideal for level measurements over a broad range of liquid and
solids applications. The transmitters are virtually unaffected by
changing density, temperature, pressure, media dielectric, pH, and
viscosity. Non-contacting radar level is ideal for harsh conditions
such as corrosive and sticky media, or when internal tank
obstructions are a limiting factor. Storage and buffer tanks The
Rosemount 5408 provides accurate and reliable level measurement for
both metallic or non-metallic vessels containing almost any liquid
(e.g. oil, gas condensate, water, chemicals). Reactors The
Rosemount 5408 is ideal for the most challenging applications,
including reactors where there can be agitation, foaming, and
condensation, as well as high temperatures and pressures. June 2023
Rosemount 5408 Series Emerson.com/Rosemount 3 Blenders and mixers
The Rosemount 5408 can help you withstand the rigors of blenders
and mixing tanks. Easy to install and commission, it is also
unaffected by virtually any fluid property change. Open atmospheric
applications The Rosemount 5408 measures reliably in open
applications, from short range sumps or ponds to long range dams.
Still pipe and chamber installations The Rosemount 5408 is a great
choice for level measurement in tanks with small diameter still
pipes. It may also be used in chambers, but guided wave radar is
generally the best fit for these applications. Bulk solids The
Rosemount 5408 is the ideal solution for small- to medium-sized
silos with rapid level changes. The narrow beam avoids internal
obstructions while still keeping good level measurement.
