ELECTRIC FEEDTHROUGHS
Used as terminals and overloads in…
- Semi-Hermetic Air Conditioning Compressors
- Semi-Hermetic Refrigeration Compressors
- Explosion Proof Electric Motors
- Electromagnets
- Vacuum Furnaces
- Electric Steam Generators
- Autoclaves
- Oil & Gas Filled Transformers and Switching Equipment
- Centrifugal and Submersible Pumps
Characteristics:
- Provide a leakproof electrical connection through the walls of a variety of pressure vessels.
- Are compatible with currently used refrigerants and phenolic oils.
- Have a superior leakage resistance, tested with a helium leak tester, and a standard acceptance leak rate of <1×10-6 cc/sec (He).
- Typical operating pressures are from 0 PSIA to 500 PSIG.
- Have a greater temperature capability than similar products… up to 250 deg. F.
- Are built with copper conductors (brass for BG220-1H and BG350B) and brass nuts for maximum electrical current carrying ability and lowest connection losses.
