Hello and thanks for checking this forum ...We are designing a swivel for use in helicopter longline work, and are wanting to transfer an electrical signal through the rotary joint. Yes, there are a lot of slip rings out there on the market, but we have space constraints (OD 2", ID 1", Stack height >.5" - transferring a signal of 24-26 volts @ 7amps max. - noncontinuous signal). We are looking to isolate two electrical paths through the swivel and are looking for alternatives to what seem to be an endless supply of costly products. Just curious if anyone out there has worked on something like this before and has any suggestions/leads?
