Commercial - Industrial Slip Rings

AC6305

Compact in various circuit configurations AC6305 Slip Ring Capsule

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 provides three, 5 amp circuits combined with 6, 9, or 12 signal (2 amp max) circuits. The AC6310 provides three, 10 amp circuits and 3 or 6 signal circuits. This compact power and signal handling design provides unique capability for many challenging applications.
