Provides reliable penetration of dielectric-filled and vacuum enclosures
RANDOLPH, N.J. - Specifically designed to meet the power and control requirements for high-voltage imaging technology used in medical applications, Douglas Electrical Components hermetic seals and connectors provide reliable, highly engineered solutions for passing signals into and out of sealed X-ray tube enclosures.
Powering an X-ray tube requires relatively large amounts of electricity to pass through a dielectric fluid, which prevents heat damage by providing both insulation and cooling. To deliver power to the tube without risk of fluid leakage, Douglas Electrical Components has developed a broad range of cost-effective, ultra-high integrity hermetic seals and feedthroughs custom-engineered to meet the unique requirements of medical imaging equipment, including installation geometry, high-voltage, high-power and fluid-sealing needs. These components are designed to provide optimal tube operation and longevity while minimizing installation time and complexity.
Specifying and designing these connectors requires familiarity with a range of solutions and feedthrough technology. These solutions may include the following components:
o BNC connector backpotting
o Custom wire harness solutions
o Direct hermetic sealing of ribbon cable
o Plastic connector hermetic backpotting
o Three conductor radial o-ring and snap ring feedthru
o Sealing of lead wires thru the wall of x-ray heads
