The Rotonivo® RN 3001 Rotary Paddle Level Switch stands as a robust, cost-effective, and time-tested solution for point-level detection in the storage and handling of bulk solids. Its fundamental rotary paddle concept—where a slowly turning paddle responds to material contact—has proven exceptionally reliable in a myriad of industrial settings: agriculture, plastics, chemicals, cement, and more.

Engineered with a low-profile housing, a dependable motor-gear assembly, and a variety of paddle designs, the RN 3001 adapts to a wide range of materials and application requirements. Its user-friendly nature—both in terms of mechanical installation and electrical integration—translates into minimal operational disruptions and lower lifecycle costs.

Key Takeaways

Wide Applicability
Works effectively across light powders, granules, feedstock, and even heavier aggregates with minimal reconfiguration.

Easy to Deploy
Threaded or flanged connections, straightforward wiring, and plug-and-play operation.

Reliable in Harsh Environments
Dust-tight enclosures, robust bearings, and specialized paddles handle challenging conditions like high dust loads or abrasive materials.

Low Maintenance
Few moving parts, simple mechanical principle, and stable torque design result in minimally required servicing.

Support for Safety
Available in explosion-proof configurations for dust hazard zones, with options for fail-safe logic to meet critical process demands.

For plant engineers and operators striving to enhance automation, prevent overfill or empty conditions, and maintain stable production lines, the Rotonivo RN 3001 offers a dependable approach to point-level measurement. Its time-tested design, combined with UWT’s commitment to quality, ensures that it remains a top contender for bulk solid applications that demand both consistency and longevity.

Features
  • Simple, reliable and maintenance-free all-rounder in bulk materials
  • Can be configured for almost any application
  • Plug and play level limit switch without calibration
