Animal behavior research is essential for understanding wildlife ecosystems, animal health, and even developing conservation strategies. To monitor and record the activities of animals, researchers increasingly rely on advanced tracking devices, such as animal activity recorders. These devices often require reliable components to transfer power and data seamlessly between stationary and moving parts, especially in dynamic environments. JINPAT’s series of slip rings, including the LPC-06A, LPC-06T, LPC-12A, and LPC-12T, are engineered to meet these demands, offering unparalleled reliability, performance, and versatility for animal tracking systems.
JINPAT Slip Rings for Animal Activity Recorders
In animal activity monitoring systems, there is a continuous need for stable signal transmission to capture real-time movement, environmental data, and biological signals. Slip rings are a critical component in ensuring that power and data can flow seamlessly through the rotating parts of tracking devices, allowing uninterrupted monitoring of animals in their natural habitats.
JINPAT’s slip rings, specifically the LPC-06A, LPC-06T, LPC-12A, and LPC-12T, are designed with precision and durability in mind to support the continuous rotation of tracking devices, enabling long-lasting and reliable animal activity recordings.
Key Technical Features
Smallest Hole Size: 5mm–6.4mm Options JINPAT’s slip rings are highly customizable to meet specific installation requirements. The hole sizes range from 5mm to 6.4mm, allowing for easy integration into compact animal tracking devices without sacrificing performance. This feature ensures that the slip rings can fit a variety of tracking devices, regardless of size, while maintaining optimal performance.
Customizable for High Protection and Harsh Environments Animal activity recorders are often used in rugged outdoor environments, subjected to dust, moisture, and even extreme weather conditions. JINPAT’s slip rings, including the LPC-06A and LPC-12A, can be customized for high protection, offering IP ratings for waterproof and dustproof operation. This ensures that the slip rings remain functional and durable even in challenging environments, allowing for accurate and uninterrupted data transmission in remote or harsh locations.
High-Speed Rotation and Long Lifespan Many animal tracking devices require continuous rotation, whether monitoring animals in motion or in situations where constant data collection is needed. JINPAT slip rings are built to handle high rotation speeds and can support up to 1000 RPM, making them ideal for dynamic applications like tracking fast-moving animals. Additionally, the slip rings offer an impressive long lifespan, with the ability to perform up to 20 million rotations, ensuring that your tracking system continues to function without frequent maintenance or failure.
Low Torque for Smooth Operation In animal activity monitoring, it is crucial that tracking devices operate smoothly to avoid interference with the animal’s natural behavior. JINPAT’s slip rings are designed with low torque characteristics, ensuring that the motion of the tracking device remains smooth and stable, without causing unnecessary drag or resistance. This results in less wear on the system, improving the overall reliability of the animal activity recorders.
Multiple Signal Integration for Enhanced Functionality JINPAT slip rings are not limited to just power transmission; they are capable of integrating multiple signal types, including data signals, power, and even analog or digital signals. This makes them suitable for comprehensive animal tracking applications that require the simultaneous transmission of various signals. Whether it’s GPS data, movement sensors, or temperature readings, JINPAT slip rings provide the flexibility to integrate a wide range of signal types into a single unit, reducing the complexity of your tracking system.
