<p>The coupling includes a sealed chamber housing an electrical circuit. This is electrically connected to the second flange section (2) to transmit information signals through the flange components (1, 2). The circuit is an encoder for the information signals. The coding includes components identifying the coupling. The flange sections are electrically-insulated from each other by an insulating seal (3). They are bolted together, the bolts (6) being insulated from at least one flange. A circuit board (13) and cable connections are included.</p> |
