The short answer is that your 2022 Ram 2500 diesel with the B and W Companion hitch # BWRVK3600 has the towing and pin weight capacity for your trailer. Your truck is rated for 20,000 lb total trailer weight and the standard amount of pin weight is 20 percent of the trailer total weight so you are easily fine.
Worth mentioning is that the truck's payload isn't the same as the pin weight since the payload is for the capacity of the truck bed and the pin weight is just for the frame.
