The Slip Ring Assembly (SRA) for the International Space Station (ISS) Centrifuge has been successfully qualified by Mecanex SA and delivered for inclusion in the Centrifuge Accommodation Module of the International Space Station. The SRA is used to transfer electrical power between the ISS and the Centrifuge Rotor and electrical signals between the Centrifuge Stator and the Centrifuge Rotor either at rest or in rotation up to 65 RPM. This paper focuses on the development process and the qualification campaign of the SRA, with special attention given to the life test. Emphasis is given to the lessons learned and the experiences gained during the work from the point of view of its use in the habitable space environemnt of the ISS. Lessons learned from the SRA development with the technology studies and the EM tests have provided valuable experience in the field of SRAs with high demands on life time.
