Level and Temperature measurement for Inventory control in Chemical Silo and Storage Tanks
Gain efficient inventory management and optimal product temperature
Tank Monitoring of Bulk Solids and Corrosive Liquids in Chemical plant
The raw materials and finished products in a chemical plant can be very diverse, from corrosive liquids like acids and caustic to sticky media like resins to solids like pigments and polymers. Limited automation combined with manual inventory data gathering frequently causes operational delays and inventory inaccuracies. Even with varying tank geometries, accurate level and temperature control is essential to ensure reliable inventory management and consistent product quality.
When paired with the Rosemount™ 3408 level sensor and the Rosemount™ 248 Temperature Transmitter, the intuitive and versatile Rosemount™ 2405 Monitoring Hub provides real-time insights into fill level and tank temperature. This enables optimized inventory management and accurate temperature control across chemical storage operations.

Featured Products
The Rosemount 3408 Non-Contacting Radar Level Transmitter, with Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, offers enhanced reliability for level measurement and overfill prevention.
- It supports wireless and remote configuration through optional Bluetooth® for the wired model or WirelessHART® for automated measurements in hard-to-reach areas, cutting down wiring costs.
- The transmitter's smart diagnostics package provides real-time monitoring, remote testing, health checks, and historical data access, enhancing safety, efficiency, and proactive maintenance.
- Safety certifications, including SIL2 (IEC61508) and NAMUR type testing, along with remote proof-testing, ensure protection for people, assets, and the environment.
- With Smart Echo Supervision™ technology, Rosemount Non-Contacting Radars (except for wireless models) 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.
- Lens antenna available for very small process fittings (3/4") and with optional bracket mount
- All PTFE wetted parts allow for use in harsh conditions, such as corrosive medias
