Platinum Wire Assemblies - Brochure

Corona Point Assemblies: STS manufacture Corona Point detectors which are used in our 800 Series simulators and in other applications where the detection of electron capturing materials is required. These include halogenated and unsaturated molecules. These Corona Discharge detectors can be made with Platinium or Tungsten wire and we fabricate from 10 or 20 micron wire by spot welding to plated brass pins. These detectors have a PTFE support for the pin and a stainless steel protective tube surrounding the wire, providing both mechanical protection and an air flow path.
