Parts and Configurations: The document lists various part numbers with configurations for power and signal channels, ranging from 2 to 96 rings. Each configuration specifies the number of power (10A) and signal (2A) channels.

Usage Recommendations: For systems with multiple channels, a conversion factor is applied to prevent overheating. For example, a 10-channel system should not exceed 50A total, and a 20-channel system should not exceed 80A total, especially in high-temperature environments without airflow.

Important Notes: All voltage and current ratings apply to individual channels/pins only. The overall ampacity is determined by the total number of channels in the system.

Catalog excerpts

MX150 series provides a long life, fiber brush contact technology for ultimate performance in many challenging applications. MX150 series are standard, with leads lengths of 72 inches. Color-coded lead wires are used on both the stator and rotor for simplified electrical connections. It can transmit signal (2A), 10A current at max 600VAC/VDC. Air unions are available in 1/2 inch 3/4 inch and 1 inch, please specify when ordering. Please verify indexer model for correct mounting bracket which is included.

Parts ListPlease note: 10A rings parallel can be used as multiple 10A current. For Example: 2 rings parallel could be used as 1 wires 20A MX150-02-0200 As a rule of thumb a 10 channel system has a conversion factor of about 0.5, meaning while each channel can handle for example 10A, the total amperage on all channel should not exceed 50A to prevent overheating. On a 20 channel system the conversion factor reduces to about 0.4, meaning the total amerage should not exceed 20 (channel) x 10A (per channel x 0.4 (conversion factor) = 80A. The mentioned convertion factor are worst case estimates when...
