Abstract: A hermetic pressure connector which provides a pressure-tight, electrically conductive connection through a hole in a bulkhead. The connector includes a transverse support member having a high pressure side and an opposite low pressure side. A passage extends through the transverse support member between the opposite sides. A conductor pin having an axial portion extends through the passage. An insulating sleeve surrounds at least the axial portion of the conductor pin, thereby electrically insulating the transverse support member from the conductor pin. A molded connected body surrounds at least a central portion of the conductor pin at least at one of the high and low pressure sides to thereby mechanically support the conductor pin in the passage. The molded connector body is directly sealingly engaged with the conductor pin, the insulating sleeve and the transverse support member.

Abstract: A hermetic pressure connector for providing a pressure-tight, electrically-conductive connection through a hole in a bulkhead. The connector includes a transverse support member having a passage therethrough. A conductor pin extends through the passage. A molded body surrounds at least a central portion of the pin and electrically insulates the transverse support member from the pin and the pin from the bulkhead. The molded body is directly sealingly engaged to the conductor pin. A method of making a hermetic pressure connector for providing a pressure-tight, electrically-conductive connection through a hole in a bulkhead. The method includes placing a conductor pin into a passage in a transverse support member and positioning the conductor pin and transverse support member within an injection mold having the desired finished shape of the molded body. The positioning is such that the conductor pin is spaced from the transverse support member.
