Instrumentation & Electronics Awards Supplement E


merson is honoured to be nominated in two prestigious categories at the 2026 Instrumentation and Electronics Awards: Flow, Level & Control Product of the Year and Monitoring and Metering Product of the Year. These nominations reflect our ongoing commitment to delivering advanced monitoring solutions that provide secure, reliable, real-time process data and diagnostics. Across both nominated products, a common focus is clear: making automation simpler, more accessible and more practical to implement across a wider range of industrial applications.


FLOW, LEVEL & CONTROL PRODUCT OF THE YEAR


The Rosemount™ 3408 Wireless Level Transmitter – Non-Contacting Radar is the world’s first native WirelessHART® non-contacting radar level transmitter, representing a significant advancement in level measurement technology.


Since its introduction in 2007, the WirelessHART protocol has become a widely adopted industrial standard, delivering secure, reliable communication in harsh process environments. Wireless networks enable faster deployment and easier expansion of monitoring systems, and lower-cost installation in hard-to-reach or previously unmonitored locations. Guided wave radar level transmitters and vibrating fork level switches have long been available as fully wireless, self-powered instruments, but a native WirelessHART non-contacting radar level transmitter has not previously been available.


The Rosemount 3408 Wireless addresses this gap by combining high-performance 80 gigahertz FMCW radar electronics with WirelessHART communication and long-life power modules to provide a fully self- contained unit. By eliminating the need for external adapters or power wiring, it significantly simplifies installation and reduces engineering effort, particularly in challenging or remote environments. This opens up new possibilities for wireless level measurement in applications such as remote tank farms, chemical storage terminals and hazardous process areas,

where installing cabling may be impractical, disruptive or prohibitively expensive. The result is continuous, dependable measurement data that supports better- informed decisions, improved safety and more efficient operations. The transmitter also features an integrated diagnostics suite that provides actionable insights into device and process health, supporting long-term measurement reliability, reducing lifecycle costs and enhancing operational efficiency.


MONITORING AND METERING PRODUCT OF THE YEAR


While the benefits of automated tank monitoring are well established, such systems are often perceived as complex to design, install and integrate. The need to connect multiple devices and manage communication between them can create a barrier to adoption,


particularly in smaller or cost-sensitive applications. The Rosemount™ 2405 Monitoring Hub has been developed to address this challenge by simplifying tank monitoring system architecture. This makes it more plausible to implement an automated tank monitoring solution in applications where it was previously deemed impractical or prohibitively expensive. Automated tank monitoring systems typically include several elements, including level, pressure and temperature transmitters, which provide critical measurement data to help ensure safety, process control and operational efficiency. These measurements are collected by a local data concentrator, which also provides a display for field technicians to view tank status. A communication unit then transfers this data to a control system or inventory management system using the Modbus TCP or HART-IP protocols. While effective, this architecture can require significant engineering, installation and maintenance resources.


The Rosemount 2405 Monitoring Hub streamlines this approach by consolidating the functions of a data concentrator, communication unit and local display into a single device. This reduces the number of components required, simplifies system design and lowers both installation complexity and total cost of ownership. By making tank monitoring systems easier to deploy and manage, the 2405 Monitoring Hub enables more organisations to transition from manual processes to automated, real-time monitoring. The result is improved visibility of tank conditions, better decision-making and enhanced safety and operational efficiency.
