Rosemount 5900S Radar Level Gauge Technical Data and Engineering Selection Guide
Rosemount 5900S Radar Level Gauge is supplied by SANTAN for new projects, installed-base replacement and complete model-code review. The verified information below supports preliminary engineering selection and quotation preparation.
Verified Product-Family Specifications
| Measurement principle | High-accuracy non-contacting radar tank gauging |
|---|---|
| Instrument accuracy | Published accuracy up to ±0.5 mm for eligible configurations |
| Applications | Bulk liquid storage, refinery/terminal inventory and liquefied-gas tank gauging |
| Safety | SIL 2 and SIL 3 certified configurations according to IEC 61508 |
| 2-in-1 option | Two independent radar gauges in one housing for redundancy or separate safety measurement |
| Tank integration | Normally used with Rosemount tank hubs, temperature systems and TankMaster architecture |
| Power / data | Two-wire intrinsically safe bus with wired and wireless system options |
| Antenna selection | Choose antenna, still-pipe arrangement and seals for tank type and stored product |
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 5900S when certified tank inventory, custody-transfer accuracy or independent overfill protection is required. Treat it as part of a complete tank-gauging system and confirm antenna, tank geometry, temperature compensation, safety architecture and legal metrology requirements.
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 |
