Radar level transmitters approved in accordance with NAMUR recommendations
The Rosemount transmitters successfully passed a range of third-party tests to determine whether their design and features complied with manufacturer’s specifications, that they meet the requirements of any relevant standards and regulations, and that the equipment is suited for its intended use. NAMUR NE95 also includes testing for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) in accordance with NAMUR NE21 Version 22.09.2007 - Electromagnetic Compatibility of Industrial Process and Laboratory Equipment, and IEC/EN 61326.
NAMUR NE 95 approval has been granted on the Hart and Foundation fieldbus versions of the Rosemount 5300 and 5400 transmitters. All NAMUR qualified products, including those qualified to NE 95, are listed in the NAMUR database, providing member companies with access to an independent validation of specification and performance. This removes the need to undertake any additional testing on qualified measurement devices.
