What is Radar?

• RADAR = RAdio Detection And Ranging

• A radar system transmits electromagnetic energy and analyzes the energy reflected back to it
(by an object)
• Determines: the location (distance), the velocity, the direction, and the elevation (altitude) of
both stationary and non-stationary objects

Probe Length

• Probe length is GWR max measuring range

• Probe must hang freely
• Probe can be cut in field
– Transmitter configuration must always be updated with new probe length
– For flexible probes, slide weight upwards the wires before cutting
– For coax probes, use centering piece to support pipe and inner rod while cutting
– Refer to Reference Manual for further instructions

HTHP, HP, Cryogenic and PTFE probes CANNOT be cut in field

Installation Considerations - Nozzles and Clearance

• Probe must not be in contact with tank wall or nozzle wall

 Minimum clearance – always check values in PDS!
• Avoid tall & narrow or reduced nozzles due to echo noise - unless unsing coaxial probe
• Long Stud - recommended to prevent the probe from contacting the nozzle
 Single flexible probes in tall and narrow nozzles

Emerson Confidential 37

Mount the Transmitter – Flanged

1. Place a gasket on top of the tank flange

2. Lower the transmitter and probe with flange into the tank
3. Tighten the screws
4. Loosen the nut that connects the transmitter housing to the probe slightly
5. Rotate the transmitter housing to desired position
6. Tighten the nut again

Dynamic Vapor Compensation (DVC)

• Density-based level (SG) can cause up to 30% error

• GWR is independent of density but saturated steam DK can cause up to 20% error
• DVC automatically compensates for varying steam DK
– Using a reference reflector on HTHP single rigid probe
– Reduces error rate to <2%
• Improves accuracy and safety and minimizes maintenance
• Applications include boiler drums, high pressure feed water heaters and steam separators

Probe End Projection (PEP)

• Microwaves propagate slower

– Probe end echo will appear below the pulse
probe end when material is in the tank
– By using the material DC it is possible

Unique Sand Switch Setting Detects

Build up in your Vessel
• Rosemount 2140 can detect if there is sediment building up in your vessel
• This special setting detects state change between liquid and sediment, as opposed
to air and liquid

Now you can:

• Proactively schedule vessel clean-outs during

periods of downtime
• Reduce risk of equipment damage from sediment
being drawn into lines
• Optimize separator capacity and process efficiency

 Why Choose a Vibrating Fork Switch Over a Mechanical?
• Reliable and easy to use technology
• Limited on-Site Maintenance; Fit and Forget
• No moving parts; nothing to freeze or jam
• Fast drip fork; quick response even in sticky
applications
Vs. • Virtually unaffected by process conditions
– Density or temperature changes
– Turbulence / splashing
– Coating
– Vapors

Moving parts No Yes, can freeze/get stuck

Maintenance Very limited Yes
Calibration No- install “out of box” Yes

chamber

– Properties of the liquid
• Viscosity
– Nature of the vapour
• Waxing
– Process connection size
• Allow free flow of liquid
– Process temperature conditions
• May require lagging or heat trace

Best Practice Rosemount GWR in 9901 Chamber

• Probe style
– Rigid Single probe
• Consider flexible with weight for taller chambers and Side &
when head space is limited Bottom
– Exception liquefied gas > 40 bar -> 5300 transmitter with coax
probe
• Calculate the GWR probe length from the 9901 CC 275 mm
– Probe length (in cm) = CC + 48 cm (19”) (10.8”)
– This allows for transition zones and gap in bottom
– CF for Dynamic Vapor Compensation probe and chamber lengths CC
– For side and bottom CC + 10cm (4”) 175 mm
• Use a centering disc for single probes if probes > 1m (3,3
(6.8”)
ft)
– Order correct size for chamber CC
• Consolidate to chamber by GWR model code option and
SAME tag #
• C1 option (pre-configuration) is recommended

• Reasons for unclean orders:

 Rosemount 9901 does not fit with radar:
• Wrong probe length
• Wrong centering disc dimension
• Mismatched Instrument/ Process connection type
 Tagging info unclear - 9901/ GWR tag numbers do not match

To reliably and accurately…

• …monitor that supplies are sufficient to keep processes running
• …control processes to maximize output
• …ensure safety functions, such as overfill prevention

But is that so difficult?

• Media property changes during process and between batches
• Contamination/condensation/crystallization
• Turbulence
• Aggressive media
• Disturbing obstacles within the vessel
• Poor power supply

 FMCW Radar Technology Provides Superior Level
Measurement Reliability
How does it work?
1. Constant stream of emitted microwaves
2. Microwave frequencies vary over a span
3. Difference betweeen received and emitted
microwave frequency is proportional to
the time-of-flight

Operating principle
• Distance = (Speed x Time) / 2
• Level = Tank Height - Distance

FMCW = Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave

FMCW Radar Technology Put 30 Times More Energy On The

Surface To Give Superior Level Measurement Reliability

The constant stream of radar waves makes the transmitter

30x more sensitive than traditional pulsed radars
Higher sensitivity – better margin to manage process
conditions that affects the measurement signals
• Foam, turbulence, condensation…

FMCW enhances resolution 3 times

Eliptical Footprint of the 5600

• As most free radiating radars, the 5600 microwave footprint is eliptical
• The transmitter should therefore be rotated to avoid echo noise in the tank
atmosphere as much as possible
– Internal obstructions
– Rust, build-up or weldings on tank wall or nozzle
– The less echo disturbances, the more microwave to amplify the surface echo

Solids Continuous Level and Volume Measurement

• For high accuracy level and volume

measurement of dry bulk solid materials and
solids inventory management

• Three main technologies: guided wave radar,

non-contacting radar and acoustics for a tiered

 More Capabilities, Better Results
Visualization to control
content
With 3D Vision software, the
Rosemount 5708 can generate a
visualization of the measured
content. This helps to detect side-
wall build-up and rat holes to
enable predictive maintenance.

Solids Continuous Level Applications
Inventory control
Multiple point measurement – Cost
effective and accurate volume with
Rosemount 5708.
Multi-scanner system allows
coverage of large inventory
vessels and silos.
Emerson Confidential
How to manage dust
Rosemount 5402 manages dusty
environments by using air purging,
and the Rosemount 5708 uses low
frequency acoustic waves to
penetrate common dusty
environments with minimal signal
loss.
Level control
Measure solids in silos up to 160
ft/50 m with Rosemount non-
contacting and guided wave radar.
Suitable for powders, granules,
silicon, plastic pellets, cement, fly
ash, corn and more.
Low dielectrics and long
measuring ranges
Probe End Projection is a function in
the Rosemount 5303 that allows
measurements to be made when
the surface pulse is too weak to be
detected.

Solids measurement
Rosemount 5708 offers continuous
level and volume measurement with
visualization to help detect build up
and optimize the emptying cycle.

Top-down, direct volume measurement

• Low frequency acoustic waves are emitted

from the antennas

• The device collect echoes from multiple points

to measure the exact volume

• Based on the returning echoes, a 3D mapping

visualization is created

• In the case of big silos, several scanners can be

connected together

• Solids applications are often extremely

dusty and put high demands on
maintenance

• This is how the antenna can look after a

few months in a corn silo

• 3D Solids Scanner is Self cleaning for

minimum to no maintenance

• Increasing scanner reliability and

durability

Parameters Impacting GWR Measurement

• Foam applications
– Foam properties are very unpredictable
– GWR is more likely cut thru foam to
measure level/foam interface

• Interface applications
– Emulsion layers are very unpredictable
– A changing dielectric on top layer will
impact accuracy
