The PotCon® line of hermetic bulkhead connector feedthroughs incorporate standard connectors and wire harnesses in a single, fully sealed housing. PotCon feedthroughs feature circuits that can disconnect at the pressure bulkhead or vacuum port while maintaining a hermetic seal for both power and signal applications. This simplifies mating and un-mating of electrical connections in hermetically sealed environments such as a UHV testing system or semiconductor processing equipment.
Hermetic bulkhead connector feedthroughs also provide seals in harsh environments. We collaborate with customers to upgrade existing connectors with an epoxy seal using the connector types and brands you trust. This includes MIL-spec, D-sub, coaxial connectors, and thermocouple feedthroughs.
PotCon bulkhead connector feedthroughs can also be incorporated with other Douglas Electrical Components products and designs such as our DuctorSeal wire feedthroughs, Portplates for multiple connection points, OptiSeal for fiber optics, and custom cable harness line.
While standard configurations are available, we specialize in customizing connector feedthroughs to customer specifications with competitive lead times. Our epoxy technology and manufacturing process allow design flexibility to produce feedthroughs in a timely manner. Commonly used as a vacuum connector feedthrough, PotCon series bulkhead connector feedthroughs can be configured as a connector-to-connect
or or connector-to-wire feedthrough to simplify customer installation.
Talk to us about your application(s) and we can start the process to find suitable designs to hermetically seal your electrical connection.
