Vacuum Hermetically Sealed D-Sub Feedthrough
XAVAC® Vacuum D-Sub Feedthroughs
Positronic Xavac® connectors are vacuum hermetic D-sub feedthrough connectors for space and / or industrial vacuum applications.
Both sides of the d-sub feedthrough contain four threaded mounting holes, an o-ring groove and fixed female jackscrews. Consequently this allows either side of the connector to be mounted toward the vacuum, therefore giving the customer the ultimate in flexibility.
Most importantly, all Xavac® series connectors are 100% leak tested after fabrication. XAVAC® series connectors utilize precision machined contacts and are therefore strong and durable. The materials and finishes, as well as the technical characteristics of the XAVAC® series connectors conform to MIL-DTL-24308,Goddard and the SPACE-D32 specifications.
In conclusion, the Xavac® connectors are arguably the best hermetic d-sub feedthrough’s on the market.
