*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.

The AC6305 compact slip ring capsule provides three, 5 amp circuits combined with 6, 9, or 12 signal (2 amp max) circuits. This compact power and signal handling design provides unique capability for many challenging applications.
