Technical details and application highlights

Review the complete description, feature set, and specification details before sending your inquiry.

The RN 6002 Tube rotary paddle switch is a high-performance solution for point level detection in bulk solids across industrial storage and processing environments. Engineered for reliability in extreme operating conditions, this device ensures consistent monitoring of material levels in silos, bins, and vessels. Its tube extension design enables flexible installation, even in deep or hard-to-access applications.

Key Features

  • Operates reliably in temperatures up to 1100°C
  • Suitable for high-pressure environments up to 10 bar
  • Tube extension design for deeper measurement reach
  • Flameproof housing options for hazardous zones
  • SIL2 certified for enhanced process safety
  • Hygienic design aligned with strict industry standards
  • Adjustable sensitivity and output delay

Application

This rotary paddle level switch is widely used in industries handling powders, granules, and bulk solids. Typical applications include cement plants, food processing facilities, chemical industries, and grain storage systems. It is ideal for full detection, preventing overfilling, and maintaining optimal material levels in storage vessels.

Design & Functionality

The device operates on a rotary paddle principle, where a motor-driven paddle rotates freely until it is obstructed by material. Once the paddle encounters resistance, the system triggers a switching signal, indicating the presence of material. The tube extension allows accurate detection even in tall silos or complex installations.

Total Crossed Beams

The design ensures consistent rotational monitoring with optimized mechanical stability, allowing reliable detection even in dense or uneven bulk materials.

Beam Pitch Options

Flexible installation configurations allow adaptation to different vessel sizes and material densities, ensuring accurate switching performance.

Intrinsic Synchronism

The internal mechanism maintains stable rotation and response timing, reducing false signals and ensuring precise level indication across varying process conditions.

Operational Advantages

The RN 6002 Tube provides dependable performance in harsh industrial environments. It minimizes downtime by preventing overflow and dry running conditions. Its robust construction, combined with advanced safety certifications, makes it a preferred choice for industries demanding durability, accuracy, and compliance. Additionally, its hygienic design makes it suitable for sensitive applications requiring strict cleanliness standards.
