5408 — Rosemount 5408 Non-Contact Radar Level Transmitter
The Rosemount 5408 Non-Contact Radar Level Transmitter is Emerson's advanced FMCW radar instrument for accurate liquid level measurement in open tanks, storage vessels, and process applications where contact measurement is impractical or undesirable in Saudi Arabia's industrial facilities. Operating at 80 GHz, the 5408 focuses its radar beam to a narrow 3° cone angle, eliminating reflections from tank internals, agitators, and heating coils that cause errors in older 6 GHz or 26 GHz radar instruments used at Saudi Aramco crude oil storage tanks and SABIC chemical storage. The narrow beam enables installation through standard DN150 nozzles on existing ARAMCO storage tanks without expensive tank modifications.
The 5408's 80 GHz high-frequency signal provides exceptional signal strength in vapor-laden atmospheres above Saudi Aramco crude oil storage tanks and SABIC hydrocarbon storage terminals, where lower-frequency radar signals are attenuated by heavy hydrocarbon vapor curtains. Signal tracking algorithms maintain measurement during turbulent surface conditions from crude oil agitation and thermal convection in Saudi Arabia's extreme summer heat. The transmitter's short-distance measurement capability extends down to 0.1 meters from the antenna, eliminating the dead band limitation of lower-frequency radar instruments in low-level applications at Saudi Aramco produced water tanks.
The 5408's HART 7 and Foundation Fieldbus outputs connect to Emerson Tank Gauging Software for Saudi Aramco custody transfer inventory management at Ras Tanura terminal. Integrated with Emerson's Rosemount TankMaster software, the 5408 provides overfill prevention, inventory management, and high-performance measurement required by API 2350 tank farm management standards adopted at Saudi Aramco crude oil terminals. The transmitter meets IEC 62443 cybersecurity requirements for connection to Saudi Aramco's plant information management systems.
Razz Middle East provides 5408 radar transmitters for Saudi Aramco Tank Farm Management System (TFMS) projects and SABIC storage terminal upgrades. Our measurement specialists assist with beam angle calculations, nozzle positioning recommendations, and false echo mapping services to ensure optimal transmitter performance in complex Saudi Aramco storage tank environments.
