Model MXP
is the high current version of the popular MX rotary contact series. Thousands
of amperes can be handled by the unique sealed design. For applications like
rotary turntable molding machines, conventional slip ring contacts suffer from
arcing, friction, and the inevitable degradation of electrical performance. The
MXP, on the other hand, operates continuously at 95% energy efficiency with no
arcing or breaks in the efficient flow of power. This improves product quality
and eliminates costly maintenance expenses. The MXP is the ideal choice for a
high power, multiple circuit, rotary contact assembly.

| Specifications |
Mechanical
RPM: 0-1000
continuous. *
Mounting: Any end-of-shaft orientation is acceptable.
Either the shaft or the housing must have a flexible link to the supporting
structure. Housing rotation is prevented by an anti-rotation bolt (standard) or
support ring (optional).
Housing: Corrosion resistant steel.
Connections: Brass studs.
General: Permanently lubricated
bearings at both ends. |
Electrical
Voltage:
Microvolts to 460+ volts (higher voltage units available).
Current:
See table above.
Frequency: DC or AC.
Stationary Contact
Resistance: One milliohm.
Rotating Contact Resistance: Same as
stationary resistance, no change with RPM. |
Environmental
Ambient Temperature: Not
to exceed 160°F (70°C), assuming minimal heat flow through shaft and
housing mounts. If machinery surfaces are hot, use insulated mounting
systems.
Relative Humidity: No effect. |
