Emerson Automation Solutions’ Rosemount 2140 is a wired Hart vibrating fork level detector. It is designed to provide reliable level detection while helping increase safety and efficiency of both plant and workers. The Rosemount 2140 performs in applications with high temperatures and harsh conditions unsuitable for other level monitoring devices. It is easy to install and maintain as there are no moving parts. It is designed to be unaffected by flow, bubbles, turbulence, foam, vibration, sediments content, coating, liquid properties, and product variations. It can be used to monitor liquids as well as liquid-to-sand interface, which enables the build-up of sand or sludge deposits in a tank to be detected.

Compatible with Hart 5 and 7 hosts, the Rosemount 2140 enables operators to continuously monitor electronic and mechanical health. Frequency profiling functionality immediately detects any build-up, fork blockage, or excessive corrosion, indicating maintenance may be required and allowing this to be scheduled during periods of downtime. An optional integral LCD display shows switch output states and diagnostics so an operator can inspect the device locally.
