Rotary paddle level switch
Rotonivo® - RN 6002 - strengthened rope version
Application area
The Rotonivo® RN 6002 rotating paddle detector with strengthened rope extension is used in storage and process vessels mainly as a demand and empty detector in bulk solids measurement. During application, tensile forces due to the rope overlap must be taken into consideration. These amount to a maximum of 28 kN. The Rotonivo® with strengthened rope version can be configured for process temperatures up to +600 °C and process overpressure up to 10 bar. The RN 6002 offers more space for wiring due to a larger housing, flameproof enclosures for use in the GasEx area and SIL2 certification.
