Rotary Feed-Through

July 27, 2006

The EDF-SRU electric rotary feedthrough unit prevents cables connecting end effectors from being twisted or broken.

The unit handles signal lines for sensors and power connections for digitally operated actuators. With a jumper, the EDF-SRU can be reconfigured to Bus operation by routing the power supply and Bus signal (CAN, ProfiBus, or DeviceNet) via the feed-through. Input ends of the unit are equipped with housing connectors or sockets.
