2.1 Theory of operation
The Rosemount™ 5300 Series Radar Transmitter is a smart, two-wire continuous level
transmitter based on Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) principles. Low power nano-second-pulses are guided along an immersed probe. When a pulse reaches the surface, part of
the energy is reflected back to the transmitter, and the time difference between the
generated and reflected pulse is converted into a distance, which calculates the total level
or interface level (see Figure 2-1).
The reflectivity of the product is a key parameter for measurement performance. The
reflection intensity depends on the dielectric constant of the product. Media with a high
dielectric constant gives better reflection (signal amplitude) and a longer measuring range.
Signal amplitude thresholds are used to separate the measurement signal from disturbing
echoes and noise. The dielectric constant of the product is used for setting the
automatically calculated amplitude thresholds. See “Analyzing the measurement signal” on
page 151 for more information about threshold principle.
For interface measurements the dielectric constant of the upper product is essential for
calculating the interface level.

2.2 Applications
The Rosemount 5300 Series Radar Transmitter series is suited for aggregate (total) level
measurements on most liquids, semi-liquids, solids, and liquid/liquid interfaces.
Guided microwave technology offers the highest reliability and precision to ensure
measurements are virtually unaffected by temperature, pressure, vapor gas mixtures,
density, turbulence, bubbling/boiling, low level, varying dielectric media, pH, and viscosity.
Guided wave radar technology in combination with advanced signal processing makes the
Rosemount 5300 Transmitters suitable for a wide range of applications:

2.4 System architecture
The Rosemount 5300 Series Radar Transmitter is loop-powered, and it uses the same two
wires for both power supply and output signal. The output is a 4-20 mA analog signal
superimposed with a digital HART
®
, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus, or Modbus® signal.
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4530, Rev DD
By using the optional Rosemount 333 HART Tri-Loop
™
, the HART signal can convert up to
three additional 4-20 mA analog signals.
With the HART protocol multidrop configuration is possible. In this case, communication is
restricted to digital, since current is fixed to the 4 mA minimum value.
The transmitter can be connected to a Rosemount 751 Field Signal Indicator, or it can be
equipped with an integral display.
The transmitter can easily be configured using a Rosemount Field Communicator or a PC
with the Rosemount Radar Master software. Rosemount 5300 Series Transmitters can also
be configured with the AMS
™
Suite and DeltaV™ software, and other tools supporting
Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) functionality.

probe. In the Blind Zones, the accuracy exceeds ±1.18 in. (30 mm), and measurements may
not be possible. Measurements close to the Blind Zones will have reduced accuracy.

with reduced accuracy. Values for different probe types and dielectric constants are

2.7 Process characteristics
The Rosemount 5300 Series has high sensitivity because of its advanced signal processing
and high signal to noise ratio. This makes it able to handle various disturbances, however,
the following circumstances should be considered before mounting the transmitter.
2.7.1 Contamination/product build-up
Heavy contamination or product build-up on the probe should be avoided since it may
decrease the sensitivity of the transmitter and lead to measurement errors. In viscous or
sticky applications, periodic cleaning may be required.
For viscous or sticky applications, it is important to choose a suitable probe. For detailed
information on the maximum recommended viscosity and coating, see Tabl e A-5 on
page 226.
Maximum measurement error due to contamination is 1-10% depending on probe type,
dielectric constant, contamination thickness and contamination height above product
surface.
Transmitter Overview
May 2016
Signal Quality Metrics (SQM) diagnostic option can give an indication of how good the
surface signal is compared to the noise, and when to clean the probe.
2.7.2 Bridging
Heavy product build-up results in bridging between the two probes in a twin lead version,
or between the pipe and inner rod for coaxial probes, and may cause erroneous level
readings, so it must be prevented. A single lead probe is recommended in these situations.
2.7.3 Foam
The Rosemount 5300 Series Radar Transmitter measurement in foamy applications
depends on the foam properties; light and airy or dense and heavy, high or low dielectrics,
etc. If the foam is conductive and creamy, the transmitter may measure the surface of the
foam. If the foam is less conductive the microwaves may penetrate the foam and measure
the liquid surface.
2.7.4 Vapor
In some applications, such as high pressure boiling water, there is a heavy vapor above the
product surface that could influence the level measurement. The Rosemount 5300 Series
Radar Transmitter can be configured to compensate for the influence of vapor.
2.7.5 Boiling hydrocarbons
Transmit ter O verview
For products with very low dielectric constants, such as boiling hydrocarbons and solids, the
threshold may need to be lowered, and/or the Probe End Projection (PEP) function
activated.

2.7.6 Interface
Rosemount 5302 is the ideal choice for measuring the level of oil, and the interface of oil
and water, or other liquids with significant dielectric differences. Rosemount 5301 can also
be used for interface measurement in applications where the probe is fully submerged in
the liquid.
Figure 2-9. Interface Level Measurement
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4530, Rev DD
For measuring interface level, the transmitter uses the residual wave of the first reflection.
Part of the wave, not reflected at the upper product surface, continues until it is reflected at
the lower product surface. The speed of this wave depends fully on the dielectric constant
of the upper product.
All probes can be used for measuring interfaces. Single probes are the preferred choice in
almost all applications but depending on the application and installation geometries a
coaxial probe or a twin probe may be a better fit.
The maximum allowable upper product thickness/measuring range is primarily determined
by the dielectric constants of the two liquids. Typical applications include interfaces
between oil/oil-like and water/water-like liquids. For such applications, the upper product
dielectric constant is low (<3) and the lower product dielectric constant is high (>20). Refer
to “Interface measurements” on page 224 for further interface application guidelines.
Emulsion layers
Sometimes an emulsion layer (mix of the products) forms between the two products and
can affect interface measurements. For assistance with emulsion applications, consult your
local Emerson Process Management representative.
