Ceramaseal® Multipin Connectors

CeramTec's multipin connector category of products describes hermetic feedthroughs of two or more conducting pins that accept plugs on the air side. Some connectors allow for plugs on the vacuum side as well. Product variations include instrumentation Micro D (MIL-DTL-83513) type, Sub D (MIL-C-24308) type and circular connector types MIL-C-26482 and MIL-C-5015.

The products in this section are used primarily to provide instrumentation signals, voltage and/or current into an ultra-high vacuum environment, high pressure, or many other extreme environments, with an inline connection to outside instrumentation. Designs adapt a Ceramaseal® feedthrough (receptacle) with an industry-standard plug.

The connector assembly is characterized by the Mil Spec designation, installation method and number of pins. In situations where voltage and current requirements are moderate, CeramTec is able to achieve a very high pin density using glass-ceramic technology. CeramTec's designs include both single-ended and double-ended connector assemblies.
