  • Page 16: Vessel Characteristics

    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.
  • Page 17 Transmitter Overview 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.

  • Page 18: Components Of The Transmitter

    Transmitter Overview 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. Safety applications The Rosemount 5408:SIS is the ideal choice for safety functions such as overfill prevention, level deviation monitoring or dry-run prevention.
