 A metal still-pipe can be used to avoid disturbing objects, turbulence, and foam (G).

 The walls in non-metallic tanks are invisible to the radar signal, so nearby objects outside of the tank
may be detected.
 Choose the largest possible antenna diameter for installation. A larger antenna concentrates the radar
beam, will be less susceptible to obstruction interference, and assures maximum antenna gain.
 Multiple Rosemount 5400s can be used in the same tank without interfering with each other (H).
