ROSEMOUNT Radar Level Transmitter for Chemical Storage Tank Level Monitoring
Product Spotlights
As a reputable supplier with over a decade of experience in industrial instrumentation, Rossonix Co., Limited proudly offers the ROSEMOUNT Radar Level Transmitter, a precision-engineered solution designed specifically for the demanding environment of chemical storage tank level monitoring. Established in 2011 and serving global markets from North America to Oceania, we understand the critical need for reliable, safe, and accurate level data in chemical processing and storage. Our partnership with leading manufacturers allows us to provide this advanced transmitter, which delivers continuous, non-contact measurement, ensuring operational safety and inventory management efficiency for your facility.
The core value of this radar level transmitter lies in its ability to provide stable and precise measurements without direct contact with the often corrosive, volatile, or high-temperature media inside chemical tanks. This eliminates risks associated with probe wear, contamination, or process interference.
- Advanced Radar Technology: Utilizes high-frequency radar waves to measure the distance to the liquid surface. The signal is immune to most process conditions like vapor, dust, foam, or changing densities.
- Robust Construction: Housing materials such as stainless steel or coated aluminum ensure longevity against chemical exposure and harsh outdoor environments.
- Flexible Configuration: Available with various process connections (e.g., NPT threads, ANSI flanges), output signals (4-20mA HART, Foundation Fieldbus, Profibus), and antenna types to suit different tank geometries and communication systems.
- Intuitive Interface & Diagnostics: Many models feature local display and programming buttons, alongside advanced diagnostic functions that alert users to potential issues like signal strength or antenna condition.
- Safety & Compliance Focus: Designed for use in potentially hazardous areas, with options available for intrinsically safe or explosion-proof certifications upon request.
Below is a summary table of typical technical specifications for a standard model range. Specific values may vary depending on the selected model and customization.
| Parameter | Specification / Range |
|---|---|
| Measuring Range | Up to 70 meters (model dependent) |
| Accuracy | ±2 mm to ±5 mm (depending on range and conditions) |
| Frequency Band | K-band (e.g., 26 GHz) or higher for focused beam |
| Process Pressure | Up to 40 bar (optional higher ratings) |
| Process Temperature | -40°C to +200°C (for transmitter, antenna temp may vary) |
| Power Supply | 24 V DC (typical), 85-265 V AC optional |
| Output | Two-wire 4-20mA with HART, or digital bus protocols |
The benefits for your operation are clear:
- Enhanced Safety: Non-contact measurement reduces exposure risks during maintenance and eliminates points of potential leakage.
- Reduced Maintenance: No moving parts or components in contact with the media significantly lowers lifetime maintenance costs and downtime.
- Improved Accuracy & Consistency: Provides reliable data for precise inventory control, batch processing, and compliance reporting.
- Operational Flexibility: Suitable for a wide array of chemicals, including aggressive acids, solvents, and viscous products, without requiring recalibration.
- Integration Ready: Standard industrial outputs allow easy connection to existing PLCs, DCSs, or inventory management software.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: How does a radar level transmitter work for chemical tanks?
A: It emits high-frequency radar waves towards the liquid surface. The waves reflect back to the antenna, and the transmitter calculates the distance (level) based on the time delay. This method is non-contact, making it ideal for corrosive or hazardous chemicals.
-
Q: Can it measure the level of viscous chemicals or those with heavy foam?
A: Yes, radar technology, especially higher frequency models with focused beams, is generally effective in penetrating light foam and is not significantly affected by viscosity. Performance in heavy foam may vary; specific antenna selection and configuration can be discussed.
-
Q: What is the typical installation process for this transmitter?
A: Installation involves mounting the antenna assembly on a tank opening (via flange or thread), connecting the power and signal cables to the control system, and configuring the device using its local interface or software. It is relatively straightforward but should follow the provided guidelines.
-
Q: Does the transmitter require calibration after installation?
A: Initial configuration is required to set parameters like tank height and empty distance. Due to its stable radar principle, it typically does not need frequent recalibration like some contact methods, unless the tank geometry or reference conditions change.
-
Q: Is it suitable for use in explosive atmospheres or high-pressure tanks?
A: Many models are available with options for intrinsically safe or explosion-proof certifications for hazardous areas. Similarly, models with higher pressure ratings can be supplied. Please specify your area classification and process pressure during inquiry.
-
Q: What communication protocols are supported?
A: The standard output is a 4-20mA analog signal with HART digital communication. Options for pure digital protocols like Foundation Fieldbus or Profibus PA are also available. Compatibility with your control system should be confirmed.
-
Q: How do I choose the right model for my tank size and chemical type?
A: Key selection factors include tank height (measuring range), chemical properties (aggressiveness, temperature), process pressure, required accuracy, and communication needs. Providing these details allows us to recommend the most suitable model.
-
Q: What kind of warranty and after-sales support do you provide?
A: The product comes with a standard manufacturer's warranty. As a trading company with extensive export experience and overseas support, Rossonix provides technical documentation, installation guidance, and facilitates connection with technical support for troubleshooting.
