*Please note that the operational life of the unit is dependent upon rotational speed, environment and temperature.

A slip ring can be used in any electromechanical system that requires unrestrained, continuous rotation while transferring power and / or data from a stationary to a rotating structure. A slip ring is also called a rotary electrical interface, commutator, collector, swivel or an electrical rotary joint.

This compact slip ring capsule which we call our “mini,” is our newest design and smallest physical package. It can incorporate up to 12 circuits, each rated at 2 amps. This unit is ideal for use where mounting space is limited and critical, without sacrificing current handling capability.
