Air Compressors
Explosive Decompression Resistant Materials for Oil & Gas Industry
When gas or gas mixtures contact elastomer surfaces (such as those found in seals) they can be absorbed under pressure. At high pressure, absorbed gas is in a compressed state. When external pressure is reduced, either rapidly or over a relatively short period of time, the compressed gas rapidly expands within the elastomer, which can […]

Sensor Ensures Proper Package Sealing
When sealing packages, the standard practice is to measure temperature, time output, and air pressure input. But not force (lb-F) output. This practice can be a cause for concern because under or over-pressure during the sealing process can affect the look and function of the packaging. Atlas Vac addressed this issue with its patented Force […]
DECo Unveils New Technology for Hermetically Sealing Circuit Boards
RANDOLPH, N.J. – Douglas Electrical Components (DECo) launches a new solution for hermetically sealing a variety of circuit board styles, including flex, rigid and hybrid circuits. Ideal for high-volume applications with certain space constraints or weight requirements, hermetically sealed circuit boards allow for increased conductor density, while providing a smaller, lighter and less expensive solution. […]
