Emerson has introduced the Rosemount™ 2405 Monitoring Hub, a new device designed to provide comprehensive inventory control and monitoring for multiple storage tanks. The Rosemount 2405 streamlines tank monitoring system architecture, allowing organisations to automate applications that were previously considered too complex or expensive. The hub delivers actionable insights that support better decision-making, enhanced operational efficiency, and cost reduction.
In many sectors — including chemical, refining, oil and gas, metals and mining, and food and beverage — companies continue to rely on manual inventory checks and often lack the capability to implement automated tank monitoring systems. The challenge is frequently compounded by the complexity and expense of integrating separate system components such as displays, communication units, and data concentrators. By combining these three elements into a single device, the Rosemount 2405 simplifies system design, making the transition to automation both easier and more affordable.
Emerson’s Rosemount 2405 Monitoring Hub integrates a display, communication unit and data concentrator into a single device – delivering full inventory control and multi-tank inventory insights.
The Rosemount 2405 supports connectivity for up to eight HART®-enabled level, pressure, or temperature transmitters. It collects, processes, visualises, and transmits measurement data for centralised monitoring and inventory management. Its digital HART multidrop connectivity enables multiple field instruments to connect through a single twisted-pair cable, significantly reducing wiring complexity and associated costs by minimising the need for extra cables, junction boxes, and input channels.
Aligned with Emerson’s Boundless AutomationSM vision for enhanced data mobility, the Rosemount 2405 integrates seamlessly with Rosemount TankMaster™ and TankMaster Mobile inventory management platforms, while also offering reliable connectivity with third-party host systems. The hub provides flexible access to inventory data — viewable locally in the field or remotely via a web browser. Through digital HART connectivity, it also enables real-time transmission of device diagnostics and status data alongside process variables, supporting proactive maintenance strategies.
Featuring an intuitive display and guided configuration, the Rosemount 2405 simplifies setup for multiple connected devices. This ease of use reduces training needs, setup time, and overall system complexity. The user-friendly interface also facilitates faster troubleshooting and issue resolution, helping minimise downtime and related costs.
According to Mikael Inglund, director of product management for Emerson’s measurement business, “Reliable access to real-time operational data through intuitive, intelligent interfaces is now an expectation in the process industries. Easy-to-deploy automated tank monitoring, enabled by the Rosemount 2405, allows operators to quickly view, interpret, and act upon critical information. This supports improved decision-making and leads to more efficient inventory management and reduced costs.”
