Level Measurement in Thickener Tanks from the Mining Industry
Ensure reliable monitoring of thickener tanks, avoid overfills and optimize processes
Accurate and compact level sensor for thickener tanks
In thickening processes, the solid particles and liquid from the slurry are separated by gravitation. Solids in suspension settle at the bottom of the tank and form a thick pulp, and the liquid overflows a trough. The solids from the bottom are extracted as a thickened pulp from an outlet at the center of the tank.
The Rosemount 1208 Radar Level and Flow Transmitter uses non-contacting and delivers reliable level measurement of the thickener tank, thus helping to avoid overfills and making processes more efficient at plants. The Rosemount 1208 features a compact and robust PVDF housing which is resistant to outdoor conditions, and its innovative radar technology remains unaffected by process conditions.

Product Solutions
The Rosemount 1208 Series provides accurate and reliable level measurement and open channel flow calculations. The radar level transmitter has been designed to solve challenges in water and wastewater, utilities and basic chemical applications. The Rosemount 1208 uses continuous non-contacting radar technology and features Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, in a compact PVDF housing with drinking water and food grade approvals. Its encapsulated design also withstands outdoor conditions and is fully submersible over extended periods of time. The Rosemount 1208 Series communicates via Bluetooth® wireless technology, 4-20 mA HART® or IO-link and has a broad range of mounting accessories, making it easily integrate into both new and existing systems.
- With Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, Rosemount Non-Contacting Radars automatically track all echoes, including those from obstructions in the vessel, and distinguish them from the real product surface echo. This ensures the true product level is reliably and accurately reported.
- Compact and robust design to withstand harsh environments, designed for outdoor conditions, submersion and hazardous location installations
- Simple configuration over your tablet/mobile device via Bluetooth® wireless technology
