Flex and Rigid-Flex Circuit Assemblies

ADVANTAGES OF FLEX CIRCUITRY FOR DOWNHOLE APPLICATIONS:

Optimal Harsh Environment Performance „ Withstands high levels of drilling shock and vibration „ Broad temperature tolerance „ Available non-magnetic materials „ Available 260°C low-profile PCB connectors „ Optimized reliability: high-speed, high-temp, high shock „ Ideally suited for double-sided component mounting „ Integration of active componentry

PROVEN PERFORMANCE DOWNHOLE

Connectorized PCB Flex Assembly Designs

Major Tool Types: „ MWD (Measurement While Drilling) „ LWD (Logging While Drilling) „ Wireline Logging „ Slickline Tools – Production „ Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) „ Pressure Temperature Sensing (PTS) „ Gamma Sensor
