Parabolic antenna
The Rosemount 5900C with Parabolic Antenna measures level of all types of liquids, from
light products to bitumen/asphalt. The gauge is designed for mounting on tanks with fixed
roofs and has custody transfer accuracy.
The design of the parabolic antenna provides extreme tolerance against sticky and
condensing products. The narrow beam of this antenna makes it very suitable in narrow
tanks with internal structures.
