Manufacturer: Rockwill
Rockwill Air Insulated RMU is an SF6-free, air-insulated medium-voltage ring main unit designed for 12 kV to 40.5 kV distribution networks. It uses ambient air as the insulating medium and vacuum interrupters for switching, integrating load break switches, vacuum circuit breakers, earthing switches, current/voltage transformers, digital protection relays, motorized operating mechanisms, fault indicators, and RTU/FTU/DTU units in a modular metal-enclosed assembly.
It supports remote monitoring, fault detection, isolation, and service restoration, making it suitable for smart grid and distribution automation applications. Rockwill also provides OEM/ODM/private label and contract manufacturing services, with customized branding and production according to customer requirements.

It is an SF6-free medium-voltage ring main unit that uses air as the insulating medium and vacuum interrupters for switching. It combines switching, protection, metering, and automation functions in one modular unit.
An air insulated RMU typically uses ambient air at atmospheric pressure as insulation, while a dry air RMU uses a sealed tank filled with dry air, often with a more compact design. Both are SF6-free alternatives.
Rockwill offers 2-way, 3-way, 4-way, and 5-way modular configurations, with load break switches, vacuum circuit breakers, earthing switches, and extensible busbar options.
