Vacuum Feedthroughs for Fiber Optics

Precision and Reliability in Challenging Environments

Vacuum Feedthroughs are essential components that enable the reliable transmission of optical fiber signals through a vacuum barrier. They are used in a variety of high-tech applications, including microelectronics, medicine, and research and development. These technologies require the highest precision and an absolutely tight connection to ensure optimal functionality.

Challenges for Vacuum Feedthroughs

One of the biggest challenges for Vacuum Feedthroughs is ensuring an extremely low leak rate to maintain the integrity of the vacuum. At the same time, the feedthroughs must be robust and modular enough to work with different fiber types and connectors. In critical environments, the combination of strength, flexibility and reliability is critical.

Diamond Vacuum Feedthroughs (V-FT): Solutions for the most demanding applications

Diamond Vacuum Feedthroughs (V-FT) are based on a robust CF-DN16 flange made of high quality stainless steel and come standard with a one meter pigtail on the vacuum side. The atmospheric side is equipped with an FC flange for easy integration into existing systems. In addition, we offer a wide range of interface options, including DIN LSA/AVIM®, Mini-AVIM® and the DIAMOND MAS universal system, which can be used for additional flanges and MAS adapters. These modular interfaces provide fast setup times and maximum flexibility to meet specific requirements. The V-FT feedthroughs are ideal for use in vacuum chambers such as those used in microelectronics, medical, and research and development applications.
