The 24002 PotCon hermetic bulkhead connector is one of the most trusted and utilized feedthroughs in the space simulation and vacuum market. Nearly 20 years ago, the feedthrough was designed to offer a simple, reliable hermetic connection into thermal vacuum chambers.
It features a plug-to-receptacle design, with the receptacle installed within the vacuum atmosphere. Douglas can provide mating connectors or harnesses as required and customize your feedthrough with other connector options.
