Page 17: Condensation
Reference Manual Transmitter Overview November 2017 00809-0100-4408, Rev BA 2.2.3 Condensation Generally, the radar signal is unaffected by condensation and low pressure steam. However, heavy condensation can affect the measurement. In such applications, air purging may be required to prevent clogging of the antenna.
Page 18: 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 19 Still pipe and chamber installations The 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 “Still...
Page 20 00809-0100-4408, Rev BA November 2017 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.

Reference Manual Configuration Parameters November 2017 00809-0100-4408, Rev BA Device setup ® C.2.1 HART protocol HART/polling address The address range is 0 to 63. The transmitter operates in either standard mode with a 4–20 mA output signal or in multidrop. When the transmitter is in multi-drop mode, the current output is fixed to 4 mA. Burst mode When set to burst mode, the transmitter regularly sends out messages instead of waiting for the host to request it.

Configuration Parameters Reference Manual 00809-0100-4408, Rev BA November 2017 Primary variable Select the desired transmitter variable to use for the analog output. Upper/lower range value Enter the range values that correspond to the analog output values 4 and 20 mA. The transmitter will drive the output to saturation mode if a measured value goes outside the 4-20 mA range values.
Page 201: Security
The transmitter can be write protected (with or without a password) to prevent unauthorized changes. Operational mode There are two Operational Modes to choose from for the Rosemount 5408:SIS: Control/Monitoring and Safety (SIS). If the transmitter is used as safety device in a Safety Instrumented System, the Operational Mode must be set to Safety (SIS).

The solids measurement mode should never be used for measuring liquid products due to the solids specific signal processing method, and vice versa. Note Solid is not supported for a Rosemount 5408:SIS operating in Safety (SIS) mode. Process conditions Turbulent surface Set this parameter to improve the performance of the transmitter when there are small and local rapid level changes caused by surface turbulence.
