3.2.2 Application considerations
The Rosemount 2160 is a wireless HART point level devices for use on open or closed
vessels (tanks) and in pipework containing liquid mediums.
For most liquids, including coating, aerated liquids and slurries, the function is virtually
unaffected by flow, turbulence, bubbles, foam, vibration, solid particles, build-up, or

build-up or implement preventative maintenance programs to ensure the build-up is not
enough to impair performance (see
