Why Potting or Encapsulating
Why do you want to pot or encapsulate your product? This is a valid question, however; the answer is not as easy.
From protection against airborne contaminants to moisture chemical corrosion, potting or encapsulating protects your electronic assembly while ruggedizing it against harsh environments. Potting/Encapsulating adds strength and integrity to your product.
Potting/Encapsulating with a filler can modify dialectric strength, dissipate heat, allow the product to float in conjunction with waterproofing, and adding flexibility or rigidity to the product. The reasons for potting/encapsulating are endless.
Potting/encapsulation is also frequently used to protect a proprietary technology by completely covering an assembly in black epoxy resin – making it impossible to reverse engineer without damaging the proprietary component.
