Model MY is
the mid-sized, end-of-shaft ROTOCON design. By increasing the shaft diameter up
to ¾ inch ( allowing more lead wires to be installed) the MY can contain
over twice as many contacts as the model MX. Like the other ROTOCON models, the
MY is highly resistant to environmental conditions due to its corrosion proof,
sealed design. Low resistance, capacitance, and zero induced noise make the MY
ideal for transmitting large numbers of low level signals. Low voltage control
signals and high power supply lines can be combined on different contacts in
the same unit. Machine vibration and mounting orientation have no effect on the
MY's electrical performance. As with all standard ROTOCON models, the MY can be
customized to suit your specific electrical and mechanical
requirements. |

Note 1: Dimensions subject to change without notice. If
precise dimensions are required, contact Meridian Laboratory.
Note 2: Add 0.33 inches to length "A" and 4 ounces to
the weight for each additional contact. Note
3: Odd numbers of contacts are available. Note 4: The maximum allowable number of contacts is dependent
on the size and type of wire needed to meet your requirements (Teflon
insulated, thermocouple leads, coaxial cable, twisted shielded pairs, or any
combination of these). The maximum teflon insulated wire gauge is #14. Wires
can be connected in parallel for increased current capacity.

| Specifications |
Mechanical
RPM: 0
- 2000 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.
General: Permanently lubricated bearings at both ends. |
Electrical
Voltage:
Microvolts to 460 volts.
Current: Nanoamperes to 30A.
Max.
Wire Gauge: #14 (MIL-W-16878 nickel plated, stranded copper wire with
Teflon insulation). See Note 4 above. Frequency: DC-100MHz.
Stationary Contract Resistance: One milliohm (excluding lead wires).
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. |
