Positronic Hermetically Sealed D-Sub Connectors

Positronic have 3 types of hermetically sealed d-subs. They are XAVAC, SAVAC and HIVAC d-sub feedthroughs. All are suitable for vacuum applications. Positronic hermetic feedthrough connectors are formed of a solid aluminium body and one-piece machined contacts. The aluminium body is filled with layers of resin. Each type of contact (power, high voltage, shielded, or signal) has a specific design of grooves to ensure no hermeticism issues. To establish a hermetic connection that won’t leak, there are also small grooves on the aluminium body. Fixed jackscrews on either side of the connector provide flexibility, allowing the customer to mount either side toward the vacuum.

XAVAC D-Sub Feedthroughs

Positronic Xavac connectors are 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.

Xavac D-sub feedthroughs are filled with an epoxy resin making them far more resilient to vibration, shock and damage compared to glass ceramic alternatives.

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.

The D-Sub feedthroughs are available in 9, 15, 25, 37 and 50 way and also high density d-sub feedthroughs in 15, 26, 44, 62 and 78 way.

SAVAC D-Sub Feedthroughs

SAVAC® Series Connectors are D-Subminiature feedthroughs for SPACE or INDUSTRIAL vacuum applications. SAVAC is a smaller connector than XAVAC.  Both sides contain two threaded mounting holes (female jackscrews) and a o-ring groove. These features allow either side of the connector to be mounted toward the vacuum, giving the customer the ultimate in flexibility. The type of contacts is according to the customer request: with normal density insulators 9, 15, 25, 37, and 50 contacts (AWG20): Male/Female, Male/Male, or Female/Female. With high density insulators: 15, 26, 44, 62, 78 and 104 contacts (AWG22): Male/Female. With mixed contact combinations (Power, Coaxial, and Signal contacts): Male/Female.

HIVAC D-Sub Feedthroughs

HIVAC® Series Connectors are feedthroughs equipped with D Subminiature Adapter Connectors for SPACE or INDUSTRIAL vacuum applications. The HIVAC® Connector configuration requires three separate units to function properly. The center unit is the feedthrough. This feedthrough requires two adapter units, one for the atmospheric side and one for the vacuum side. Both sides of the feedthrough contain four threaded mounting holes and an o-ring groove. These features allow either side of the connector to be mounted toward the vacuum, giving the customer the ultimate in flexibility.
