FEATURES
BRUSHLESS HIGH CURRENT ROTATING ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS DELIVER UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY
- Supports up to 35 amps per channel/contact.
- Ensures consistent current and signal transmission without interruptions.
- Designed for long-lasting operation with no maintenance required.
- Sealed construction protects against environmental conditions, machine vibrations, and external disturbances.
ROTOCON high current rotating electrical connectors are designed for end-of-workpiece mounting. The ROTOCON MY/MZ series offers a high ampacity rating and multiple channels, making it ideal for applications requiring high current or a large number of contacts. For applications with fewer than 30 channels/contacts or less than 20 amps per contact, we recommend our ROTOCON MX Series.
ROTOCON high current rotating electrical connectors are widely used in industries such as wastewater treatment, centrifuges, thermoforming, packaging, and other demanding industrial and scientific applications. They provide a stable, maintenance-free electrical connection for high channel count and high current needs, ensuring uninterrupted power and signal transmission without measurable electrical noise. They remain unaffected by machine vibration, rotational speed, environmental factors, or the total number of revolutions.
ROTOCON high current rotating electrical connectors are sealed from environmental exposure and constructed with durable materials, making them a trusted choice for manufacturing, R&D, and other high-performance applications. Their rugged, industry-focused design ensures long-lasting, reliable performance while eliminating the frequent maintenance and downtime associated with traditional brushed slip rings.
ROTOCON high current rotating electrical connectors are highly customizable to fit your application’s exact requirements. Customizable options include mechanical mounting, electrical terminations, and additional value-added features. Additionally, Meridian Laboratory offers cost-effective solutions for Custom ROTOCON Rotating Electrical Connectors, supporting both low and high-volume needs.

Why Choose ROTOCON High Current Rotating Electrical Connectors?
General Specifications
MOUNTING
End-of-Shaft
End-of-Shaft: This series of rotating electrical connectors is intended to be mounted at the end of a workpiece and is typically secured via set screws to the shaft, or has a variety of other options available.
RPM
2,000
The maximum rotational speed of a ROTOCON rotating electrical connector is directly limited to the temperature the slip ring reaches under maximum current load and rotational speed within a given environment. The speeds shown are up to and not guaranteed in absolute maximums.
TEMPERATURE
-35˚F to 160˚F
(-20°C - 70°C)
Temperature rating is measured at the body of the ROTOCON slip ring under maximum current load and rotational speed; it should not exceed 160˚F for continuous periods of time. For application specific scenarios, please contact Meridian Laboratory.
CONTACT RESISTANCE
0.2mΩ
Contact resistance refers to the electrical resistance between the stationary and rotating portions, internal to the ROTOCON rotating electrical connector. This is measured without additional cabling or connectors, and is internal to the units themselves. This is measured stationary or rotating, regardless of rotational direction, speed, or orientation.
