Flex Circuit Feedthroughs

We can design and produce flex circuit feedthroughs for every industry from medical facilities and labs to airport equipment.  Some more common applications are vacuum chambers / pressure chambers, glove boxes, air conditioning and refrigeration and space simulation equipment.

Flex Circuit Feedthroughs

Epoxy hermetically sealed flex circuit feedthroughs are a sensible solution for engineers who need to pass power and signal wires through the walls of pressure and vacuum chambers.  Most importantly, where the engineers don’t have a need for quick connections or dis-connections on one or both sides of the chamber, the cable feedthroughs are an excellent concept.

A cable seal feedthrough that is hermetically sealed with epoxy offers a more flexible solution that as a result saves space.  These wire seal feedthroughs pass conductors in a cable harness through a chamber wall with no vacuum or pressure loss. Furthermore, an epoxy sealed wire feedthrough also eliminates issues with voltage drop, contact resistance, and other electrical problems.

Cable Seal Feedthrough Applications

Hermetic cable seal feedthroughs are used in many applications and industries.  An epoxy hermetically sealed cable feedthrough is a better solution if you don’t need to disconnect at the bulkhead.

We can design and produce cable seals for every industry for example:

  • Medical imaging systems eg X-ray Equipment
  • Space Simulation vacuum chambers
  • Semiconductor wafer processing equipment
  • Military ordinance-control applications
  • Air conditioning and refrigeration
  • Glove boxes
  • High voltage electrical switches
  • Medical equipement
  • Laboratory Research
  • Vacuum systems
  • Airport equipment

Continuous feedthroughs can also be used in older systems when retrofitting is necessary. Adding new instrumentation or sensors to an existing chamber can be a time-consuming and difficult task when using standard connectors or when the opening of the chamber wall does not allow additional conductors.  A cable seal feedthrough can therefore be adapted to add more conductors to work with limitations in an existing system.

Cable Seal Testing

Every hermetic cable seal is tested with pressure and / or helium leak tested.  In addition, all hermetic cable seal feedthroughs are hipot and / or continuity tested to ensure the cable seal feedthrough is correctly wired.  This ensures every cable seal feedthrough we ship is robust.

You might wish to combine cables, wires and connectors on a flange.  We can facilitate this for you and design a custom vacuum flange to your exact requirements, tested and ready for you to install.
