Quick Start Guide
1.0 About this guide
This Quick Start Guide provides mechanical installation instructions for the
Rosemount 5402 Level Transmitter with parabolic antenna.
For information about electrical installation and configuration, refer to the
Rosemount 5400 Quick Start Guide
.
Failure to follow safe installation and service guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure the transmitter is installed by qualified personnel and in accordance with applicable code of
practice.
Use the equipment only as specified in this Quick Start Guide and the Reference Manual. Failure to do so
may impair the protection provided by the equipment.
Any substitution of non-authorized parts or repair, other than exchanging the complete transmitter head or
antenna assembly, may jeopardize safety and is prohibited.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate hazardous
locations specifications.
To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing.
Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the
loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
To avoid process leaks, only use O-rings designed to seal with the corresponding flange adapter.
Do not remove the transmitter while in operation.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical
shock.
Make sure the main power to the Rosemount 5400 Level Transmitter is off and the lines to any other
external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.
Ground device on non-metallic tanks (e.g. fiberglass tanks) to prevent electrostatic charge build-up.

6.0 Adjust the inclination of the antenna
6.1 Orientation
General best practice is to initially align the parabolic antenna vertically to
the ground.
If the surface echo is weak, a small inclination of the antenna toward the
surface slope may improve the performance.
The angle of slope differs during filling and emptying, and thus the signal
strength. Therefore, monitor the entire cycle to verify optimum antenna
inclination.
