Quick Start Guide
1.0 About this guide
This Quick Start Guide provides basic guidelines for the Rosemount 5408 and
5408:SIS Level Transmitters.
Refer to the Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS Reference Manual for more
instructions. The manual and this guide are also available electronically on
Emerson.com/Rosemount.
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 guide and the Rosemount 5408 and 5408:SIS Reference Manual.
For installations in hazardous locations, the transmitter must be installed according to the Rosemount 5408
and 5408:SIS Product Certifications document and System Control Drawing (D7000002-885).
Repair, e.g. substitution of components etc. may jeopardize safety and is under no circumstances allowed.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate hazardous
locations certifications.
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.
Do not remove the transmitter covers in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is alive.
Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and the terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause
electrical shock.
Make sure the main power to the transmitter is off and the lines to any other external power source are
disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure that the transmitter is handled carefully. If the process seal is damaged, gas might escape from
the tank.
Hot surfaces
The flange and process seal may be hot at high process temperatures.
Allow to cool before servicing.

5.0 Adjust display orientation (optional)
To improve field access to wiring or to better view the optional LCD display:
1. Loosen the set screw until the transmitter housing can rotate smoothly.
2. First, rotate the housing clockwise to the desired location. If the desired
location cannot be achieved due to thread limit, rotate the housing
counterclockwise to the desired location (up to 360° from thread limit).
3. Re-tighten the set screw.

6.0 Prepare the electrical connections
Cable selection
Use 24-14 AWG wire. Twisted pairs and shielded wiring are recommended for
environments with high EMI (electromagnetic interference).
Two wires can be safely connected to each terminal screw.
Cable gland/conduit
For explosion-proof/flameproof installations, only use cable glands or conduit
entry devices certified explosion-proof or flameproof.
Power supply
The transmitter operates on 12-42.4 Vdc (12-30 Vdc in Intrinsically Safe
installations) at the transmitter terminals.
Power consumption
Max. 1 W, current max. 23 mA
Load limitations
For HART®communication, a minimum loop resistance of 250 is required.
Maximum loop resistance is determined by the voltage level of the external
power supply, as described by Figure 2.

Step 6: Ensure proper grounding
Make sure grounding is done according to national and local electrical codes.
Failure to do so may impair the protection provided by the equipment.
Transmitter case grounding
The most effective grounding method is direct connection to earth ground with
minimal impedance. There are two grounding screw connections provided.
Figure 4. Ground Screws
A. Internal ground screw
B. External ground screw
Signal cable shield grounding
Make sure the instrument cable shield is:
Trimmed close and insulated from touching the transmitter housing.
Connected to the next shield if cable is routed through a junction box.
Connected to a good earth ground at the power supply end.

Step 9: Attach and tighten the covers
1. Verify the cover jam screws are completely threaded into the housing.
2. Attach and tighten the covers. Make sure the covers are fully engaged.
3. Turn the jam screw counterclockwise until it contacts the cover.
Required for explosion-proof/flameproof installations only.
4. Turn the jam screw an additional ½ turn counterclockwise to secure the
cover.
Step 10: Connect the power supply
