Combined Interface Fiber Optic Feedthroughs
Modular Pigtail & Adapter Configurations for UHV Systems
Our Combined Vacuum Fiber Feedthroughs offer unparalleled flexibility for complex optical systems. Designed with a modular approach, these feedthroughs allow you to customise the pigtail and adapter orientation on demand, ensuring a perfect fit for your specific vacuum chamber layout.
Whether you need a direct fiber connection (pigtail) or a bulkhead-style interface (adapter), our dual-interface design supports most fiber types – including Polarization-Maintaining (PM) – and can be integrated into any standard or custom flange.
Versatility Without Compromise
These feedthroughs are engineered for high-performance environments where reconfiguration and maintenance are frequent.
-
Dual-Side Customisation: Configure your choice of FC/PC, FC/APC, or SMA 905 connectors on either the vacuum or atmosphere side.
-
Easy Maintenance: The unique design allows the feedthrough to be removed from the flange, making it easy to reconfigure your setup without replacing the entire assembly.
-
UHV Compatibility: Machined from premium, low-outgassing materials and hermetically sealed to maintain integrity in High (HV) and Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV).
Key Advantages
-
Configurable Orientation: Mix and match pigtails and adapters to suit your internal and external routing.
-
Universal Fiber Support: Fully compatible with Single-Mode (SM), Multi-Mode (MM), and Polarization-Maintaining (PM) fibers.
-
Extreme Seal Integrity: UHV-rated for leak-tight performance down to <10-10 mbar.
-
Durable Tubing Options: Protect your fibers with Stainless Steel, PEEK, or PTFE jacketing for harsh environments.
Industry Applications
Our modular feedthroughs are the preferred choice for mission-critical optical paths:
-
Semiconductor Manufacturing: Reliable optical interconnects for wafer processing equipment.
-
Fusion Energy (Tokamak): Critical fiber-based plasma diagnostics through reactor vessel walls.
-
Particle Accelerators: High-precision optical diagnostics and timing synchronisation within beamlines.
-
Cryogenics: Stable fiber routing in extreme thermal environments down to –196°C.
-
Aerospace & Photonics: Ideal for satellite instrumentation and experimental vacuum-compatible optics
