Rosemount 3408 level transmitter is a non-contacting radar device designed to optimize ease-of-use at every touchpoint, increasing safety and plant performance. It’s a versatile level measurement solution, suitable for use in a wide range of industries and applications, such as chemical storage, mixing tanks and open-air applications.
Rosemount 3408’s user interface provides clear pictorial instructions that easily guide operators through installation, commissioning, proof-testing, operation and maintenance. It also uses frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology, which enables accurate and reliable measurements, even in challenging process environments. Rosemount 3408 is also suitable for use in critical safety applications such as overfill prevention because it’s Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 2-certified and designed according to the IEC 61508 standard relating to functional safety.
The transmitter can be proof-tested remotely and in-situ, which makes the procedure quick and easy. In the event of device failure, its exchangeable design enables the simple replacement of a cassette within the transmitter housing, rather than replacing the entire transmitter head.
In addition, Emerson’s proprietary Smart Meter Verification software provides an easy means of verifying the health of the device, without interrupting the process. Official records of device verification are generated, simplifying compliance with regulatory requirements. In addition, an advanced diagnostics suite continuously monitors key device health and process parameters. This provides actionable information and predictive alerts that support preventative maintenance strategies, streamline troubleshooting and help increase process availability. A built-in historian enables users to access stored process data and alerts to gain process insights and aid troubleshooting.
