Level Measurement in Sludge Tanks
Optimize sludge supply and avoid unnecessary downtime with reliable radar level sensors
Non-Contacting Level Monitoring in Sludge Holding Tanks
After the sludge has passed through the digester, it is transferred to a storage or buffer tank, where it is stored before it is sent to the dewatering process. The Rosemount 1208 Non-Contacting Level Transmitter provides continuous and robust level measurements in the sludge storage tanks so that the sludge supply can be optimized, and plant operators can avoid unnecessary downtime while ensuring optimal feeding to the dewatering processes. With plastic intermediate tanks, the Rosemount 1208 provides continuous and accurate measurements directly through the closed plastic tank roof.

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
The Rosemount 3408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter is a versatile FMCW radar, which features Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, and is suitable for level measurement and overfill prevention in many industries, including chemical. Smart features save time and maximize efficiency for trouble-free operations, simplifying commissioning, operation and testing. Smart diagnostics help you proactively plan maintenance and optional Bluetooth® connectivity allows convenient configuration and maintenance. Manual or automatic verification at scheduled intervals can be conducted from the control room at any time without process interruptions. Perform proof-testing remotely and in-situ with onboard functionality. NAMUR type tested and third party certified to IEC61508 for use in safety critical applications.
