Non-Magnetic Contacts
FCT Plastic Hoods


    For those customised and universal applications only non-magnetic material and alloying are chosen, applied, inspected and measured. The final product is tested by a precision meter in order to guarantee for a permeability μr ≤ 1,0025.

    Advantages of the FCT contacts:

    Preventing any perturbation triggered off by electro-magnetic impulses.

    Versions:

    The non-magnetic contacts are labelled in the ordering code by the surface specifications. (e. g. series FMX, FMS, FME, FBM, FMP: "111", "128", "133"etc.)

    Ordering examples:

    FMS001S111B
    FME005S128
    FMP004P133
    FMP006P133

    Further contact versions on request.
