5900S Custody-Transfer Radar Level Gauge
SKU: 5900S
Premium tank-gauging radar level gauge — ±0.5 mm accuracy under custody-transfer conditions. Used in oil & gas storage terminals, petroleum products, LNG, and bulk chemical tank farms. SIL 2/3 certified, PTB / NMIM / GOST custody-transfer-approved (matched with Rosemount 2240S transmitter and 2410 Tank Hub). Tankbus FOUNDATION Fieldbus output. Multiple antenna types for different tank conditions — parabolic for long-range, cone for short standpipes, still pipe for floating-roof tanks.

Premium tank-gauging radar level gauge — ±0.5 mm instrument accuracy. Custody-transfer accuracy per OIML R85:2008. SIL 2 / SIL 3 capable per IEC 61508. 2-in-1 redundancy option for two independent radar electronics per gauge. 10 GHz FMCW radar via 2-wire FOUNDATION Fieldbus Tankbus. Four antenna variants for different tank conditions: parabolic (1P, premium for fixed-roof without still-pipe, tolerant to product buildup and condensation), horn (1H, smaller fixed-roof nozzles down to 200 mm), still-pipe array (1A, for floating-roof crude/gasoline/product tanks with rust/deposit tolerance via Low Loss mode), and LPG/LNG (G1/G2/G4, for pressurized or cryogenic liquefied gas with integrated ball valve and optional built-in pressure sensor for vapor compensation). Pairs with the Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub for full custody-transfer chain and the Rosemount 2240S for temperature + density.

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.
