PAVE-Seal® feedthroughs have fixed wire leads sealed permanently through the bulkhead with no disconnect. PAVE-Mate® connectors add a mating plug on one or both sides so you can disconnect without disturbing the seal. Use PAVE-Seal® for a permanent passthrough; use PAVE-Mate® when you need repeated connect/disconnect access.
The standard factory test is 80 psi nitrogen with no visible bubble. High-vacuum helium testing to 10⁻⁸ cc/sec is standard on vacuum-rated designs. Helium mass spectrometer testing to 4 x 10⁻¹⁰ cc/sec is available on request.
Standard designs are factory-tested to 80 psi. Most designs can be tested to several hundred psi on request, and select configurations are rated to 10,000+ psi. Vacuum ratings reach 10⁻⁸ Torr for UHV applications.
