Rosemount 5408 Level Transmitter

Rosemount 5408 Level Transmitter

Rosemount 5408 Level Transmitter wide range of devices for liquids and solids measurement covers the whole spectrum from basic point level detection to challenging continuous level, interface and volume measurement, even in extreme conditions. Use Emerson’s Rosemount level measurement technologies to optimize your processes, plan for maintenance, and anticipate and correct issues before they become problems.

Rosemount 5408 Level Transmitter – Non-Contacting Radar

The Rosemount 5408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter uses enhanced technology and Human-Centered Design to deliver accurate, reliable measurements on both liquid and solid materials. Using two-wire FMCW technology the Rosemount 5408 deploys a continuous echo to maximize radar signal strength and produce a more robust and reliable measurement. Delivering ease-of-use at every touchpoint, the Rosemount 5408 uses an intuitive software interface to guide the operator through installation, commissioning, proof-testing and maintenance. Safety certified to IEC 61508 for SIL 2 applications, the Rosemount 5408:SIS reduces the cost of risk, increases efficiency and protects people and the environment.
