High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical shock.Make sure the main power to the transmitter is off and the lines to any other external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.Make sure that the transmitter is handled carefully. If the process seal is damaged, gas might escape from the tank.Any substitution of non-authorized parts or repair, other than exchanging the complete transmitter head or antenna assembly, may jeopardize safety and is prohibited.Unauthorized changes to the product are strictly prohibited as they may unintentionally and unpredictably alter performance and jeopardize safety. Unauthorized changes that interfere with the integrity of the welds or flanges, such as making additional perforations, compromise product integrity and safety. Equipment ratings and certifications are no longer valid on any products that have been damaged or modified without the prior written permission of Emerson Process Management. Any continued use of product that has been damaged or modified without the written authorization is at the customer’s sole risk and expense.WARNING – Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety.WARNING – To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing.WARNING – Potential electrostatic charging hazard – Wipe with a damp cloth.WARNING – Open circuit before removing cover.WARNING – Seal to be installed within 50 mm of the enclosure.

It uses two-wire fast-sweep Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology.The transmitter continuously emits signal sweeps with a constantly varying frequency towards the product surface. Since the transmitter continuously changes the frequency of the transmitted signal, there will be a difference in frequency between the transmitted and the reflected signals.The frequency of the reflected signal is subtracted from the frequency of the signal transmitted at that moment, resulting in a low frequency signal which is proportional to the distance to the product surface. This signal is further processed to obtain fast, reliable, and highly accurate level measurements. Figure 2-1.

A high dielectric constant of the media provides better reflection and enables a longer measuring range. In addition to the dielectric constant, the measuring range depends on the microwave frequency, antenna size, and the process conditions (see “Measuring range” on page 121).2.2.2 Foam and turbulenceFoaming liquids or turbulence may cause weak and varying surface echo amplitudes. The effects of turbulence are usually minor, but in the most challenging conditions, the transmitter may be mounted in a still pipe. In addition, measurement performance can be optimized by enabling the appropriate process conditions parameters, see “Process conditions” on page 171.Measurement in foamy applications depends largely on the foam properties. When the foam is light and airy, the actual product level is measured. For heavy and dense foam, the transmitter may measure the level of the foam’s upper surface. The Double Surface Handling function allows the user to select if the foam layer or product surface should be used as output.2.2.3 CondensationGenerally, the radar signal is unaffected by condensation and low pressure steam. However, heavy condensation can effect the measurement. In such applications, air purging may be required to prevent clogging of the antenna.In high temperature applications, it is recommended to insulate the tank nozzle. Insulation prevents the nozzle from becoming a cold spot, and thus reduces the amount of water build up and condensation on the antenna.If the temperature in the tank is much higher than the ambient temperature (i.e. tank is heated and located in a cold area), it might be necessary to heat trace the nozzle in addition to the insulation.2.3 Vessel characteristics2.3.1 In-tank obstructionsThe transmitter should be mounted so that objects such as heating coils, ladders, agitators and so on are not in the radar signal path. These objects may cause false echoes resulting in reduced measurement performance. However, the transmitter has built-in functions designed to reduce the influence from disturbing objects where such objects cannot be totally avoided.Vertical and inclined structures cause minimal effect since the radar signal is scattered rather than directed back to the antenna.

The transmitter has built-in functions which optimize measurement performance for various bottom shapes.2.4 Application examplesThe Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS are ideal for level measurements on a broad range of liquids and slurries. The transmitter is 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 tanksThe Rosemount 5408 provides accurate and reliable level measurement for storage or buffer tanks for almost any liquid, e.g. oil, gas condensate, water, chemicals, etc.Demanding environmentsThe Rosemount 5408 is a very suitable choice for the most challenging applications, such as reactors with varying process conditions and product turbulence created by agitators.
6Transmitter OverviewNovember 2016Transmitter OverviewReference Manual00809-0100-4408, Rev AAPRELIMINARYReactors and mixing tanksRosemount 5408 can help you withstand the rigors of reactor and mixing tanks. Easy to install and commission, it is also unaffected by virtually any fluid property change.Still pipe and chamber installationsThe Rosemount 5408 is an excellent choice for level measurement in tanks with still pipes. It may also be used in chambers, but guided wave radar is generally the best fit for these applications. See “Installation in still pipe/chamber” on page 16 for installation guidelines.

8Transmitter OverviewNovember 2016Transmitter OverviewReference Manual00809-0100-4408, Rev AAPRELIMINARY2.6 System integrationThe transmitter is loop-powered, and uses the same two wires for power supply and output signal. The output is a 4-20 mA analog signal superimposed with a digital HART® signal. The transmitter can be configured for either HART Revision 6 (default) or 7 (option code HR7). The HART Revision can be switched in field.By using the optional Rosemount 333 HART Tri-Loop™, the HART signal can be converted up to three additional 4-20 mA analog signals. With the HART protocol, multidrop configuration is possible. In this case, communication is restricted to digital, since current is fixed to the 4 mA minimum value.The transmitter can be combined with the Emerson™ Wireless 775 THUM™ Adapter to wirelessly communicate HART data with IEC 62591 (WirelessHART®) technology. In addition, the transmitter can be connected to a Rosemount 751 Field Signal Indicator, or it can be equipped with an LCD display. The transmitter can easily be configured by using a PC with the Rosemount Radar Master software (running in Instrument Inspector™), a Field Communicator, the AMS™ Suite: Intelligent Device Manager, or any other Device Descriptor (DD) or Field Device Integration (FDI) compatible host system.The Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS are compliant to the NAMUR NE 107 Field Diagnostics for standardized device diagnostic information.Figure 2-3.

(200 mm) distance to the tank wall.The optimal location is usually 1/4 of the tank diameter.Do not install the transmitter in the center of the tank.Do not mount close to or above the inlet stream.Multiple Rosemount™ 5408 and 5408:SIS Level Transmitters can be used in the same tank without interfering with each other.Figure 3-1.

11Reference Manual 00809-0100-4408, Rev AAMechanical InstallationNovember 2016Mechanical InstallationPRELIMINARY3.2.2 Antenna sizeChoose as large antenna diameter as possible. A larger receiving area concentrates the radar beam and ensures maximum antenna gain. Increased antenna gain permits greater margin for weak surface echoes.In addition, a larger antenna results in a smaller beam angle and thereby, less interference from any internal structures in the tank. 3.2.3 Inclination of antennaEnsure the antenna is aligned vertically to the product surface for best measuring performance. The parabolic antenna comes with swivel connection that adjusts for angled tank roofs.Figure 3-2. Inclination3.2.4 Non-metallic tanksThe walls in non-metallic tanks can be invisible to the radar signal, so nearby objects outside the tank may cause disturbing radar echoes. Wherever possible, the transmitter should be positioned so that objects close to the tank are kept outside the signal beam.Max. 3° Max. 1.5°Cone antenna Parabolic antenna
