What does a rotary union do?
A rotary union allows for the movement of a fluid media (oil, coolant, water, etc) from a stationary device (a sink, an oil tank, a vat, etc) to a moving device (an engine, propeller, turbine, etc).
Where are rotary unions used?
Soft seal multi-passage rotary unions are used in a variety of industries and applications including oil and gas, food and beverage, aerospace, robotics, and medical devices. In some applications, the rotary union is fitted with slip rings for transmitting electrical signals as well as hydraulic power.
What is Rotary RF?
The term rotary joint describes a device used to transmit energy from a stationary RF line to a rotating RF line. Rotary joints are the best. We offer designs with SMA, N, TNC and 2.92 connectors to cover a broad range of applications including: Air traffic control. Ground-based, ship based and airborne radar.
How does a rotary RF joint work?
Rotary joints allow the easy transmission of signals to and fro the ground components and the antenna with minimal distortions. Rotary joints are designed to function as a passive and rotating transmission line that is capable of transmitting direct current and radiofrequency signals with low degradation.
