Connectors and cables
Subminiature-D coaxial / subminiature-C connectors
MDC Vacuum offers a wide range of coaxial cables, wires,
rods and insulators to provide the necessary connections
into the vacuum environment.
Coaxial cables
All coaxial cables are constructed with vacuum
grade materials and components, including
stainless steel braided shielding, high purity
alumina ceramic insulation, beryllium copper
contacts and aluminium terminations. Cable
assemblies are suitable for high temperatures and
rated for high and ultra-high vacuum service. Please
note that when connecting cables to feedthroughs, the
effective voltage, current and temperature ratings for the set
are reduced to that of its lower rated component.
Termination-A 200°C
Type-A terminations were designed as a convenient means of
connecting to the vacuum-side of MDC Vacuum coaxial flangemounted
BNC and MHV coaxial products which have a
2.39mm conductor pin diameter. Termination-A vacuum ready
cables are specifically designed to be used with MDC Vacuum
between series feedthroughs as detailed in this catalogue.
Termination-B 200°C
Type-B terminations are basic cable terminations fitted with
push-on contacts for 2.39mm conductor pin diameters, ideal for
quick connect applications where non-continuous coaxial
shielding is acceptable. Because of spring retention design, these
units are only rated to 200°C.
Termination-C 400°C
Type-C terminations are also for non-continuous coaxially
shielded applications, but have a temperature rating of 400°C,
made possible by its mechanical, set screw clamping design.
Termination-D 200°C
Type-D termination is identical to Type-A termination, with the
exception of a male thread adaptor. This thread adaptor enables
a continuous coaxial shielded connection to floating shield
BNC, MHV and SHV-5 feedthroughs. The threaded adaptor is
attached to the feedthrough by means of a set screw in
the adaptor base.
Termination BNC and MHV 400°C
Type BNC and MHV terminations were
designed as high temperature versions of the traditional
bayonet naval connection. They provide a means of connecting
to MDC Vacuum double ended BNC and MHV coaxial
feedthroughs or, for that matter, any in-vacuum component
fitted with a female BNC and MHV mating connection. Please
note that BNC and MHV should not be cross-mated.
We offer many different solutions, from vacuum-ready
coaxial cables to specialized wires, such as Kapton ® wire,
for customized in-vacuum applications.
Microdot ® 400°C
Microdot ® coaxial terminations are designed
for use with MDC Vacuum between series
BNC-Microdot ® crystal sensor feedthroughs
as detailed in this catalogue. These cables must
be shielded when used in vacuum coating
applications. Failure to do so will lead to
electrical degradation and eventual failure.
Wire and rod
Caburn offers a wide variety of bare wire and rod materials, all
of which are suitable for high and ultra-high vacuum
applications.
Special purpose materials such as stainless steel braided
shielding and Glidcop ® copper alloy wire, insulated with fish
spine ceramic beads are ideal for the fabrication of vacuum
ready coaxial cables and are particularly recommended for use
in flexible coaxial cables.
Insulator materials
MDC Vacuum Limited's standard
ceramic Insulator components
are fabricated using high purity
alumina, 95%Al203, which is ideal
for high and ultra-high vacuum service.
Alumina is a multi-crystalline form of sapphire and its
properties include high compressive and mechanical strength,
high wear and heat resistance, good radiation resistance and
high electrical resistivity. It also has zero porosity and is hence
impervious to all gases. All of these properties make alumina an
excellent engineering material suitable for
some of the most extreme and
demanding applications.
Tools
Caburn offers a variety of tools suitable for use with
some of the products in this section.
All dimensions are nominal in millimetres unless specified
