PCB Potting
We specialise in potting PCB assemblies, providing durable and effective protection for electronic components.
Potting offers several advantages over conformal coatings, especially in applications where maximum durability and environmental protection are essential.
Potted assemblies are fully waterproof and capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions, ensuring longevity and reliability in the field. Our expertise spans multiple industries, having designed and potted bespoke assemblies tailored to meet individual client needs.
Successful Potting Applications
We have successfully applied potting solutions in a variety of challenging environments, including:
Swimming pools
Golf course irrigation systems
Outdoor environments exposed to extreme weather conditions and moisture
In these high-risk environments, potting plays a critical role in safeguarding electronic systems from damage.
The Benefits of PCB Potting
Potting offers several advantages over traditional protective methods, such as conformal coating, including:
Enhanced Durability and Safety: potting improves the mechanical strength of the assembly by securing the components within a solid protective barrier, making them more robust and less vulnerable to damage.
Improved Heat Dissipation: some potting compounds are designed to dissipate heat, contributing to better thermal management and ensuring that your components perform optimally under varying temperatures.
Shock and Vibration Resistance: potting compounds provide additional protection against shocks and vibrations, making them ideal for applications in high-impact or mobile environments where the components are subjected to constant movement.
Waterproofing: by completely encasing the assembly, potting ensures that the components remain protected from moisture, making it the perfect solution for outdoor or underwater applications.
