ABSTRACT:
A housing for a hermetically sealed bulkhead connector is machined of an integral metal member to have a precisely planar bulkhead-engaging surface of a mounting section extending peripherally around a contact support section disposed within a hood section extending through a cutout of the bulkhead. The housing also is machined to have precisely planar surfaces of a contact support section to facilitate assembly of contacts precisely concentrically disposed in passageways through the support section and securing therein by glass seals to comprise a parallel contact array. The housing is free of joints between the several sections which could provide sites for breaching the hermetic nature of the housing. No steps are performed which involve impacting or striking the housing which could disturb the precise planarity of the several precisely machined surfaces. The contact positions may be identified by laser etched indicia.
