Viton® vs Silicone Seal Tight Boots Explained
In the field, vibration analysts frequently encounter many varied chemicals and chemical combinations. With all of the various chemicals to be dealt with, it turns out that no one material is compatible with every environment. In order to provide solutions for the most difficult of these environments, CTC has chosen to offer specialty materials for protecting the connections to sensors, including Viton® and silicone. Viton® Seal-Tight Boot Offerings from CTC feature enhanced chemical resistance and an IP69 rating.

While both Viton® and silicone have excellent resistance to many chemicals, certain chemicals, like chlorine, can cause the silicone to deteriorate rapidly, yet have little or no effect on Viton®. Pictured on the right are silicone boots that have split after prolonged exposure to chlorine.
CTC’s Viton® boots provide superior protection and can even be submerged for extended lengths of time in depths of up to 5 meters without allowing water to penetrate to the sensor connections. The V2N and V3N Connectors have been tested to the IP69 standards and passed with no water ingress observed at all.
