InSealing offers Fe and Feedthroughs.
- Glass is heated to a molten state and then wetted to the metal, forming a tight bond.
- The thermal expansion of the glass and the metal are carefully measured and controlled to prevent breakage.
- InSealing offers not only electrical feed-throughs, the most common type we make, but also RF and microwave feedthroughs.
Materials:
- Body materials: Cold rolled steel, Stainless steel, Inconel, etc.
- Glass Materials: Soda lime, Lead silicate, etc.
- Electrodes Material: Alloy 52, Copper Cored 52 Alloy, Alloy 42, etc.
- Typically Compression Seals withstand temperatures ranging from -250°C to 400°C. Allowable operating temperatures would be from -60°C to 200°C under thermal cycling and shock.
Properties:
- Hermeticity: up to 1 x 10-9 atm cc/sec He
- Insulation resistance: typically exceeds 1 GΩ @ 100 VDC
- Mechanical strength can withstand 20,000 psi with proper design for use in high-pressure applications
- Dielectric: can withstand voltage depending on joint geometry and glass material selected. Below are some typical glass values
