5408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter
SKU: 5408
Workhorse 26 GHz FMCW non-contacting radar level transmitter for critical liquid and solid level measurement. Continuous-sweep frequency-modulated radar delivers 3 mm accuracy across a wide measuring range. Multiple antenna options (cone, parabolic, process seal, lens) cover virtually every tank geometry and process compatibility — chemical-resistant PTFE-coated parabolic for aggressive media, cone antenna for short standpipes, planar antenna for hygienic. SIL 2/3 functional safety certified. HART or FOUNDATION Fieldbus output. The most-quoted Rosemount radar for refining, chemical, oil & gas storage, and bulk-solids level.

1208 Level + Flow Transmitter (80 GHz Basic)
Entry-level 80 GHz non-contacting radar for basic level and open-channel flow measurement. Compact NPT-mount transmitter, 4-20 mA HART output. Ideal for water/wastewater utility tanks, sump-pump level, basic process tanks where the 1408A would be over-spec. The lowest-cost Rosemount radar in the line.
1408A Level + Flow Transmitter (80 GHz)
Cost-effective 80 GHz non-contacting radar for basic level + flow applications in utilities, water-treatment, and general process. Compact form factor, 4-20 mA HART output, fixed-mount lens antenna. The entry-level 80 GHz Rosemount radar — when you need 80 GHz beam-angle advantage but don't need the 3408/5408 option flexibility.
1408H Hygienic Non-Contacting Radar Level (80 GHz)
Hygienic-process 80 GHz non-contacting radar level transmitter for Food, Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Biotech, and Cosmetics. Tri-Clamp, DIN-A, and DIN-B sanitary process connections with polished SST wetted parts (3-A and EHEDG compliant). Compact form factor (drop-in retrofit for legacy hygienic level instruments). Same 80 GHz beam-angle advantage as the 3408 / 1408A for tanks with internals.
3408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter (80 GHz)
High-frequency 80 GHz FMCW non-contacting radar level transmitter — narrow beam angle (typically 4°) eliminates interference from tank internals (agitators, ladders, heating coils) that confuses lower-frequency radars. Same antenna / process-connection / material variety as the 5408 but with the 80 GHz beam-shape advantage for challenging tank geometries. Both liquid and solids applications, including granular materials and aggregates where lower-frequency 26 GHz struggles.
