High-Voltage Hermetic Seals

High-Voltage Hermetic Seals Are Bi-directional Seals for Vacuum or Pressure

Any type High voltage wire or cable up from 1-30 kV, single or multiple cables, with or without high voltage cable connectors. Depending upon the voltage, a wide variety of high voltage cables or wires up to 32 kV can be provided in a wide variety of hermetically sealed passthrough designs for low or high pressures and vacuums and temperature ranges between -200 to 200C. Cable insulations include PVC, silicone, XLPE, PTFE FEP Teflon® and Kapton®. Listed below are existing hermetic high voltage feedthru designs. Custom designs are also readily available upon request. All PAVE hermetic seals will pass either a vacuum helium leak test 10^-6 to 10^-9cc/sec leak rate or a pressurized gas bubble leak test. PAVE hermetic epoxy seals are much more robust also than fragile glass or ceramic seals.
