Smart FMCW echo-tracking features and advanced signal processing techniques combine to give the Rosemount 5600 high reliability and accuracy, even in the toughest conditions.
The 5600 uses a software module that incorporates all the experience accumulated in thousands of radar installations around the world to discriminate between false echo sources and true surface echoes.
This software can also use information provided by the operator about stirrers or other obstructions as a complement to the automatically collected data.
The Rosemount 5600 integrates with Emerson PlantWeb digital plant architecture, and can provide Hart or Foundation fieldbus digital communications protocols, or a standard analogue output.
The transmitter head has two separate junction boxes, one for non-intrinsically safe power supplies, 24-240V AC/DC, and one for the analogue output circuits and digital interface, which can be intrinsically safe, active or passive.
For local monitoring, the unit has an integral display, and keypads for basic initial configuration.
Remote displays and as many as six externally mounted temperature sensors can be driven from the Rosemount 5600 transmitter.
The Rosemount 5600 brings the best in radar level gauging technology - accuracy, reliability, no liquid contact, no moving parts - with full industrial control interfacing. Request a free brochure from Emerson Process Management ...
