Chemically-resistant, potted PCB fabrication for process instrumentation
Signal-conditioner and sensor-interface boards for chemical and process environments need the same fabrication discipline as an automotive potted module — because it's often the same board archetype, just deployed in a different harsh environment.
Process instrumentation boards — level sensors, flow-meter interfaces, control-loop conditioners — spend years in enclosures exposed to chemical vapor, humidity and temperature swings. The fabrication choices that matter are finish, coating-readiness and connector placement.
Chemically-resistant coating readiness
Layouts reviewed with a conformal coating or full potting process in mind — the same technique we use for automotive potted modules, applied here for chemical-exposure enclosures.
ENIG finish for long-term reliability
Gold-over-nickel plating that holds up better than HASL to the humidity and thermal cycling common in process-industry enclosures over a multi-year deployment.
Signal-conditioner board fabrication
PWM-to-analog, 4-20mA and RS485-interfaced sensor conditioning boards use the same fabrication discipline we apply on automotive builds — potting-ready pad placement, ENIG finish, connector clearance.
Small-batch and fleet-scale runs
Whether you need 5 boards for a single process-line pilot or hundreds for a full plant rollout, the same DFM review and 100% electrical test applies.
Frequently asked
Can you fabricate boards intended for a fully potted or conformal-coated module?
Tell us the board is going into a potted or coated enclosure and pad placement, connector clearance and thermal relief get reviewed with that process specifically in mind during DFM.
Do you fabricate signal-conditioner boards for process sensors (level, flow, pressure)?
PWM-to-analog, 4-20mA and RS485-interfaced conditioning boards use the same fabrication discipline whether the end deployment is a chemical plant, a process line, or an automotive application.
What finish do you recommend for long-term chemical-exposure deployments?
ENIG, in most cases — it holds up better than HASL to the humidity and thermal cycling common in these environments across a multi-year service life.
Can you handle a small pilot batch before a full plant rollout?
5 boards is our minimum order, and reordering the same design at a larger quantity later reuses the same files and DFM approval rather than starting over.
