Glass to Metal Seals, Glass to Sapphire

TMS has spent considerable time and effort in developing it’s range of proprietary brazing techniques.

Our experience in brazing dissimilar materials has enabled us to offer a wide range of Cells for infra red or ultra violet environmental analysis.

Cells are usually made with a stainless steel or Kovar body with a copper filler tube brazed onto the side. Window materials used are from Calcium Floride, Sapphire, Quartz or Magnesium Flouride depending on wavelength.

Gas Cells can be manufactured completely in Quartz or Sapphire with the option of a graded seal filler tube to aid the sealing of the Cell.

All Gas Cells are manufactured in our Clean Room and are Helium leak checked to 2 x 10-8 mbar prior to dispatch.

The filling of Gas Cells can be carried out to our Customer’s requirement.
