TER Slip Ring Collectors: Electrical Transmission Across Rotating Joints for US Crane and Industrial Applications
TER manufactures four series of slip ring collectors where rings coupled with brushes are used to transfer current from a stationary unit to a rotating one — suitable for transferring current at 50/60 Hz frequency, with ATEX versions available for potentially explosive environments. Slip ring collectors are the correct electrical transmission solution for US jib crane, overhead crane, and industrial machinery applications where power and control signals must be delivered continuously across a rotating joint — eliminating the cable twist and cable fatigue that fixed cable connections produce on rotating crane and machinery applications. Crane-Controls.com stocks TER slip ring collectors for US crane builders, electrical contractors, and maintenance teams requiring reliable rotating electrical transmission from a single specialist US source.
The TER 10A slip ring collector is a compact device equipped with 4 rings, designed for small jib cranes — suitable for transmitting current with 50/60 Hz supply frequency and capable of transmitting audio, RS485, or CAN signals, with extreme temperature resistance from -25°C to +70°C. The TER 10A/30A slip ring collector is an electric rotary collector consisting of rings coupled with brushes, designed to allow current to pass from a fixed to a rotating part and used to supply crane motors and cable winders — available with 30A line rings only or with 30A line rings and 10A auxiliary rings, fitted with phosphor bronze or graphite brushes, IP22 rated, with up to 40 rings coupled with brushes. The TER 50A slip ring collector supports up to 16 line rings at 50A with phosphor bronze brushes, available with or without protection in IP22 or IP00 configurations. The TER Pegasus slip ring collector features an enclosure made of steel, stainless steel AISI 304 or 316L, aluminum, galvanized or epoxy powder varnished steel resistant to marine and aggressive environments.
