Each contact is sealed with a proprietary dispersion-strengthened, devitrifying polycrystalline ceramic compound that offers performance above and beyond conventional glass seals. Due to its non-amorphous crystalline structure this ceramic is five times more resistant to fracturing than glass. These nano-miniature connectors are capable of achieving helium leak rates of less than 1×10-9 cc/sec Helium at 1 atmosphere of differential pressure. The 9-65 position MIL-DTL-32139 compatible connectors are available with weldable or solderable bulkhead mounts.
Rated at 1 amp per contact, these 0.635mm pitch connectors have an insulation resistance of over 5,000MΩ at 100VDC, a contact resistance of 70mV (max) at 1A, and a DWV of 250VAC –initial (100VAC after humidity). The operating range for the ceramic is -269 to +450degC.
Comments Gary Evans, European Sales Manager: “More and more applications are demanding miniature connectors that are gas tight. Omnetics’ nano miniature hermetically sealed connectors are proven in ultra high performance applications.”
