Verified Product-Family Specifications
| Measurement principle | 80 GHz FMCW non-contacting radar |
|---|---|
| Functions | Continuous level and open-channel flow calculations |
| Published range | Up to 15 m, model and application dependent |
| Published accuracy | ±2 mm under stated reference conditions |
| Construction | Compact corrosion-resistant PVDF housing; fully submersible design |
| Connections | 1.5-in. G or NPT thread with compatible mounting accessories |

Published values describe the product family and are configuration dependent. Final range, accuracy, materials, pressure, temperature, approvals, communications and accessories must be checked against the selected Emerson/Rosemount model code and current documentation.
Best-Fit Application
Use the 1208 for water, wastewater, utility and basic process duties that need compact non-contact radar or open-channel flow calculation. Confirm channel geometry, flooding risk, PVDF compatibility, mounting, power and required protocol.
Quotation and Selection Data Required
| Application | Continuous level, interface, open-channel flow, alarm or overfill duty |
|---|---|
| Process | Liquid/solid properties, dielectric constant, density, viscosity, foam, dust and buildup |
| Geometry | Measuring range, tank/silo dimensions, nozzle, obstructions and mounting position |
| Design limits | Operating/design pressure and temperature; wetted-material requirements |
| Electrical | Power, wired/wireless output, update rate, enclosure and hazardous-area requirements |
| Compliance | SIL, hygienic, custody-transfer, drinking-water or other project approvals |
