    Application examples The Rosemount 5408 is 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 15 00809-0300-4408 June 2019 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.
