Rosemount 3490 Controller helps to optimize processes, enhance sustainability and ensure regulatory compliance
GOTHENBURG, Sweden (May 16, 2023) – Emerson has introduced its next-generation Rosemount™ 3490 Controller for level and flow measurement applications, which helps to reduce complexity, optimize processes and enhance sustainability. Designed to maximize ease-of-use, the Rosemount 3490 provides comprehensive control functionality for 4-20 mA or HART® compatible transmitters and is an ideal solution for water, wastewater and process industry applications.
The Rosemount 3490 is the first controller to feature simple-to-program configuration wizard guides to help users set up the controller, making this procedure significantly less complex and time-consuming. Further enhancing usability, the controller has a modern, intuitive graphical interface, an easy-to-navigate menu structure, and a backlit 4.3-inch color LCD display, which simplifies ongoing operation and device status readings.
Combining the Rosemount 3490 Controller with Emerson’s non-contacting radar Rosemount 1208C Level and Flow Transmitter enables organizations to achieve accurate and reliable measurements. This helps them to optimize operational efficiency across a broad range of water and wastewater applications, including the automatic control of up to six pumps, filtration operations, sludge handling, and flow in open channels and weirs. The robust design of the controller makes it suitable for use in the harsh environments typically encountered in these applications.
Supporting increased sustainability, the accuracy of the level and flow measurements helps to prevent overfills and water wastage. To help ensure compliance with industry directives and regulations, the Rosemount 3490 simplifies report and documentation handling. It enables a variety of flow measurements to be totalized, differentials to be calculated, and data to be easily logged and shared with regulatory authorities through a web interface via Ethernet connectivity.
“In designing the Rosemount 3490, our focus was firmly on outstanding usability and creating a controller for flow and level measurement applications that is as easy to set up and operate as possible,” said Felix Johansson, associate solutions manager for radar level at Emerson. “The Rosemount 3490 Controller and Rosemount 1208C Level and Flow Transmitter together form a cost-effective, dedicated solution for water and wastewater applications that not only helps organizations to reduce downtime and costs but also safeguards water safety and quality.”
