Glass-to-Metal Sealed Electrical Hermetic Products Description
Key Features

The OFP Hermetic Electrical product line (hermetic feedthroughs, penetrators, and connectors) was developed to withstand prolonged exposure to aggressive media such as oil, mud, chemicals and salt water through the use of proprietary glass-to-metal hermetic seal technology (GTMS). The products are qualified to perform reliably under prolonged exposure to temperatures from -55° C to +300° C and pressures up to 40,000 psi, making them an ideal solution for space or subsea/downhole environments.

The hermetic feedthroughs are easily installed in wellheads, manifolds, pipes, pressure vessels, and in ROV/UUV.  Highly reliable penetrators, feedthroughs, and connectors are available in single and multi-pin configurations. OFP’s experienced and agile design team offers bespoke solutions to customer demands.
