2.1 Theory of operation
The Rosemount 5400 Level Transmitter is a smart, two-wire continuous level transmitter. A Rosemount
5400 is installed at the top of the tank and emits short microwave pulses towards the product surface in
the tank. When a pulse reaches the surface, part of the energy is reflected back to the antenna for
subsequent processing by the transmitter electronics. The time difference between the transmitted and
reflected pulse is detected by a micro-processor and is converted into a distance, which calculates the
level.
Transmitter Overview
June 2016
The product level is related to the tank height and the measured distance by the following expression:
Level = Tank Height - Distance

Reactor vessels
The innovative design of the Rosemount 5400 makes it an excellent choice for the
most difficult applications, such as reactor vessels:
Unique circular polarization provides greater mounting flexibility – no tank
wall clearance distance is needed
Direct measurement – independent of most variations in process conditions,
such as density, dielectric, vapor, temperature, and pressure
Can handle turbulent conditions created by agitation, top-filling, or process
reaction
Mounting flexibility
The versatile Rosemount 5400 can be used in mounting configurations other than
standard nozzles:
Fits most existing pipes: 2- to 8-in. (50-200 mm)
Easy to isolate from the process – use a ball-valve
Still-pipes reduce the influence of foam, turbulence, and tank obstructions.
Ball-valves can be used on both still-pipes and nozzles.

Underground tanks
The mounting flexibility of the Rosemount 5400 makes it an excellent choice for
many underground tanks:
Easy top-mounting
Can handle long narrow nozzles up to 6 ft (2 m) as long as they are clean and
smooth, and pipes
Unaffected by dirty products with solids content

The Rosemount 5400 is loop-powered, and uses the same two wires for power supply and output signal.
®
The output is a 4-20 mA analog signal superimposed with a digital HART
Modbus
®
signal.
, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus or
By using the optional HART Tri-Loop™, the HART signal can be converted 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 Field Communicator or a PC with the Rosemount Radar
Master (RRM) software. Rosemount 5400 can also be configured with the AMS™ Suite and DeltaV™
software, and other tools that support Electronic Device Description Language (EDDL) functionality.

2.4 Process characteristics
Dielectric constant
A key parameter for measurement performance is reflectivity. A high dielectric constant of the media
provides better reflection and enables a longer measuring range.
Foam
Rosemount 5400 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.
Turb ul enc e
A calm surface gives better reflection than a turbulent surface. For turbulent applications, the maximum
range of the radar transmitters is reduced. The range depends on the frequency, the antenna size, the
dielectric of the material, and the degree of turbulence. Consult Table 2-2 on page 11 and Table 2-3 on
page 12 for the expected maximum range with the variables listed.
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4026, Rev KB
Temperature/pressure/density and vapor
Temperature, pressure, product density, and vapor generally have no impact on measurements.
Condensation
For applications where heavy condensation and vapors may occur, the low frequency version Rosemount
5401 is recommended.
Tank characteristics
The conditions inside the tank have a significant impact on measurement performance. For more
information see “Vessel characteristics” on page 34.

Reference Manual
00809-0100-4026, Rev KB
Solid surface
The surface of solid materials is rarely flat or horizontal. The surface inclination will change as the vessel
fills and empties. There is often a lot of dust during the fill cycle. The dielectric value of many solids is
fairly low. See Table 2-1 on page 9 for common solids characteristics.
For solids applications, the high frequency version Rosemount 5402 with 4 inch cone or parabolic
antenna is available.

2.6 Antenna selection guide/measuring range
The measuring range depends on the microwave frequency, antenna size, the dielectric constant (r) of
the liquid, and process conditions. A higher dielectric constant value produces a stronger reflection. The

1. The obstruction should not be within the radar beam. Preferred choices due to more narrow radar beam: Rosemount 5402, and cone antenna.
2. If tall nozzle, use extended antenna.
3. The active part must protrude beneath the nozzle.
4. An extended cone antenna must be used.
5. Air purging might be needed.
6. Build-up can often be avoided or reduced by using heat-tracing or cleaning arrangements.
7. Use a 6 or 8 in. (150-200 mm) cone antenna.
8. Foam can either reflect, be invisible, or absorb the radar signal. Pipe mounting is advantageous since it reduces the foaming tendency.
9. Other wetted material options include Alloy C-276 and Alloy 400. See the Rosemount 5400 Series Product Data Sheet for details.

Failure to follow safe installation and service guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
Use the equipment only as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may impair the protection
provided by the equipment.
Do not perform any services other than those contained in this manual unless you are qualified.
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure the transmitter is handled carefully. If the process seal is damaged, gas might escape from
the tank if the transmitter head is removed from the antenna.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations specifications.
In an Explosion-proof/Flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter cover when power is
applied to the unit.
Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in
the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
Do not remove the gauge cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.
To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing.
To avoid process leaks, only use O-rings designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause
electrical shock.
Make sure the main power to the Rosemount
external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.
Antennas with non-conducting surfaces.
Antennas with non-conducting surfaces (e.g. rod antenna and process seal antenna) may generate
an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under extreme conditions. Therefore, when the
antenna is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, appropriate measures must be taken to
prevent electrostatic discharge.
