Special Report: Hermetic Connectors
Hermetic connectors are designed for use in
harsh application environments. The BAE
Systems cover photo of the SKYEYE
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is just such an application.
Sensitive photographic, sensor
and surveillance equipment mounted
in the SKYEYE must be able to operate
in severe weather conditions,
at high altitudes, under extremes of
atmospheric pressure and in rapidly
changing temperature gradients.
Hermetic connector devices
interconnecting the SKYEYE's
black box equipment are selected for their ability to protect the controlled
equipment environment by maintaining an air-tight
seal between severe flight conditions and the UAVs
sensitive payload.
