Single Sensor Feedthroughs / Connectors
The Technical Ceramics business of MACOR® Machining China manufacture ceramic to metal single pin feedthroughs and connectors designed for high performance and reliability operating in harsh and ever increasingly demanding environments.
Our design and applications engineers will work with you to design an optimised solution to meet your requirements.
Typical product applications:
- Laser technology – discharge, ionisation and water cooled feedthroughs for gas lasers
- Medical – anode & cathode connectors for X-ray, sensors and diagnostic equipment
- Aerospace – igniters, pressure, speed, temperature sensors
- Scientific & analytical equipment – ion gun connectors, seal assemblies, filament supports, pin base assemblies
- Sub-sea & oil exploration – connectors & perforators
- Semi-conductor – ion implantation, UHV connectors
- Industrial igniters
