This level transmitter can reduce installation costs
The Rosemount™ 3408 Wireless level transmitter with non-contacting radar (photo) reduces the complexity, time and costs associated with installing cabling in automated measurement points. By eliminating measurement blind spots and the need for manual readings, the transmitter enhances plant safety, boosts operational efficiency and enables more reliable, continuous level monitoring in industrial environments. Based on 80-gigahertz frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology, the Rosemount 3408 Wireless reliably measures the level of liquids and solids, even in remote locations where access is challenging. This makes it suitable for use in a broad range of industries. This unit has WirelessHART connectivity, making it ideal for monitoring of remote assets, the company says. The 3408 can also be easily integrated into any host monitoring and control system compliant with the HART® protocol and the Field Device Integration® (FDI) standard. The transmitter features a diagnostics suite that provides actionable insights into device and process health. It also has a modular electronics cassette that can be quickly removed or replaced without disturbing the field wiring or process seal. — Emerson, St. Louis, Mo.
