Enabling simpler, more economical high-temperature sensors

HEATAN® sensor feedthroughs are single-component solutions that simplify the process of assembling sensor sealing systems for applications above 1000°C by using fewer components and a more cost-effective assembly. In contrast, conventional multi-component sensor sealing assemblies require several manufacturing steps to achieve the required high-temperature properties.

Product properties

HEATAN® feedthroughs utilize unique glass-ceramic technology and were developed based on decades of expertise as a leading supplier to the automotive and sensor industries. By integrating feedthroughs from SCHOTT into high-temperature sensor designs, customers benefit from excellent temperature and corrosion resistance.
