PRELIMINARY Transmitter Overview Reference Manual 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 2.2 Process characteristics 2.2.1 Dielectric constant A key parameter for measurement performance is reflectivity. 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.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA 2.3.2 Transmitter Overview November 2016 Tank shape The shape of the tank bottom affects the measurement signal when the product surface is close to the tank bottom. The transmitter has built-in functions which optimize measurement performance for various bottom shapes. 2.4 Application examples The Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS are ideal for level measurements on a broad range of liquids and slurries.
PRELIMINARY Transmitter Overview Reference Manual 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 Reactors and mixing tanks Rosemount 5408 can help you withstand the rigors of reactor and mixing tanks.

PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 3.2 Review mounting considerations Before installing the transmitter, consider recommendations for mounting position, sufficient free space, nozzle requirements, etc. 3.2.1 Mounting position When finding an appropriate location on the tank for the transmitter, the conditions of the tank must be carefully considered.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA 3.2.2 November 2016 Antenna size Choose 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.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 3.2.5 Beam width and beam angle The transmitter should be mounted with as few internal structures as possible within the signal beam. Refer to Table 3-1 for beam angle and Table 3-2 for beam width at different distances. Figure 3-3. Beam Angle and Beam Width D D W Table 3-1. Beam Angle Antenna size Beam angle (Į) 2-in. cone 18° 3-in. cone 14° 4-in. cone 10° Parabolic 4.5° Table 3-2.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA 3.2.6 November 2016 Nozzle requirements In order to allow the microwaves to propagate undisturbed, the nozzle dimensions should be kept within the specified limits as given in Table 3-3 and Table 3-4. Cone antenna For best performance, the cone antenna should extend at least 0.4 in. (10 mm) below the nozzle. If required, use the extended cone antenna versions (option code S1 or S2).

PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA 3.2.7 November 2016 Free space requirements If the transmitter is mounted close to a wall or other tank obstructions such as heating coils and ladders, noise might appear in the measurement signal. Therefore the following minimum clearance, according to Table 3-5, must be maintained. For easy access to the transmitter, mount it with sufficient service space (see Table 3-5). Figure 3-6.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 3.2.8 Installation in still pipe/chamber Installation in still pipe/chamber is recommended for tanks where surface conditions may be extremely turbulent. By using a pipe, foam or turbulence is reduced. All cone antenna sizes can be used for still pipe/chamber installations. Consider the following still pipe requirements: Pipe Pipes should be an all-metal material.
PRELIMINARY Reference Manual Mechanical Installation 00809-0100-4408, Rev AA November 2016 Consider the following chamber requirements: Pipes should be an all-metal material. Pipe should have a constant inside diameter. Inlet pipes should not protrude into the inside of the stand pipe. The inner surface must be smooth and clear of any rough edges. (Smooth pipe joints are acceptable, but may reduce accuracy.) The gap between cone antenna and stand pipe is limited to 0.2 in. (5 mm).
