Compact Slip Ring Capsules
AC7036
Integrated AC6349 and AC6355 slip ring capsules for high circuit density
A slip ring capsule can be used in any electromechanical system that requires unrestrained, intermittent, or continuous rotation while transferring power and / or data.
The AC7036 integrates two of our popular slip ring capsules, the AC6349 and AC6355, creating one compact assembly. Connecting hardware is used to combine these units by inserting the AC6355 in the bore of the AC6349. This combination provides a wide range of circuit capabilities up to 24 circuits rated at 15 amps and 36 or 56 circuits rated at 2 amps, in a compact 6.5 inch length and 3.1 inch diameter. The outer capsule features 6, 12, 18, or 24 circuits rated at 15 amps, while the inner capsule can be configured with 2 amp, 5 amp, 10 amp, or coax circuits.
