Contactless couplers transmit power and data

23 September 2015 Interconnection

TE Connectivity’s ARISO contactless connectivity platform is a hybrid interconnection system, based on contactless power and data technology, which can connect over a short distance without a physical connection. This technology is not subject to common design constraints since it is immune to vibration, pollutants and harsh environments, and unconfined by movement restrictions.

The system is designed to replace complex and expensive harness construction and slip rings, enabling connectivity where it was not previously possible while also reducing main-tenance and installation efforts. Since the coupler ends are physically separated, an unlimited number of mating cycles is possible even in tough environmental conditions.

Using inductive coupling, ARISO can transmit through fluids, walls and thin barriers. The couplers are designed to make the addition of intelligent features easy since sensors, which capture, store and communicate data, can be embedded in the couplers themselves. Smart features can also extend the life of an existing product without the need for mechanical modification. For example, there may be two very similar products or components, each requiring different power levels. ARISO couplers can store this information, allowing a single product to automatically apply the appropriate power level.
