About Us


For over 60 years, Conax Technologies has been a leading supplier of custom designed temperature sensors and compression seal fittings for a wide variety of applications in virtually every industry.  Our products are certified to some of the most rigorous quality standards in the world.  Conax Technologies is a fully integrated manufacturer with extensive in-house design and manufacturing capabilities, enabling us to provide superior products and services to our customers.

We make what we sell.

We design.  We produce.  We are a product engineering and manufacturing company.  And our products are made in the same building in which we design them.  That means that we have the benefit of addressing design and manufacturing issues with all of our resources combined – and that we are able to communicate with each other face-to-face.  That helps to ensure that our products are of the highest quality and workmanship.

Unique application?  Bring it on!

imageWe are known for our capabilities in solving performance problems by designing customized products that work in challenging environments.  Our senior salespeople are all engineers and our engineering staff outnumbers any other discipline in our company.  During our product development process, we test our concepts thoroughly to ensure that our solutions work.  We know what we are doing.

We are a contemporary, integrated manufacturer.

Our strength as a manufacturer is based on five key factors:
  • We have assembly operations, machine shop operations and testing operations all under one roof.
  • Our products are produced to ISO 9001:2008 standards.
  • Proprietary, state-of-the-art software drives our processes.
  • Continuous investments are made in new equipment and machinery
  • Our manufacturing personnel are experienced and conscientious.

One-stop shopping for temperature sensor assemblies.

imageConax Technologies is the only company that designs and manufactures the complete range of temperature sensor products and related sealing feedthrough solutions that you require.  So if you need a single source of supply, we are ready, willing and able.

We’ve produced over 1,000,000 part numbers over the last ten years.

imageOver the last ten years, Conax has manufactured over 450,000 temperature sensor part numbers and over 700,000 compression seal fitting part numbers, many of which could be ordered directly from our catalogs.  Imagine how many we have made over our entire 60 year history!  We are quite certain that puts us in a class of our own relative to the diversity of experience that we can bring to your company.

Our return department is a part timer who worked 31 hours last year.

image Only 0.2% of our products were returned in 2010 for a handful of reasons.  One of our largest customers has ordered over 30,000 sensors over the years – only 5 have been returned (the screws were loose and we tightened and sent back).  We know how to make high quality products.

We sell our products everywhere.

imageWe sell directly to our US customers from our Buffalo, NY headquarters, Our new California office services the US West and Pan Pacific and our Texas office services the Gulf Coast.   We have sales and service representation in over 40 countries.  No matter where you are, we will get in touch with you.

We produce order sizes from 1 to 100,000 units.

imageWe understand the demands of customers who require only one item as well as those customers who require thousands of items.  And our state-of-the-art 45,000 square foot lean assembly line and machine shop has been designed to do this without special scheduling.  No matter what size of the order, we can make it.  Because the world works that way, so do we.

240 wires? 30,000 psi (2067 bars)? We have sealing solutions.

imageOur compression seal fittings use our exclusive ‘soft sealant’ technologies that can be designed to seal pressures ranging from vacuum up to 30,000 psi (2067 bars) involving temperatures ranging from -400°F to 3000°F ( -240°C to +1650°C). Replaceable sealants permit repeated use of stainless steel fittings for easy installation and service in the field. When high density feedthroughs are required, our MHM feedthroughs fit the bill in sealing up to 240 conductors or 120 thermocouple pairs.

4200°F? 2300°C? No sweat.

imageOur high temperature thermocouples are specifically designed for durability and reliability in high temperature applications to 4200°F (2315°C). Such applications generally involve oxidizing, reducing or inert gas environments that challenge the life of the thermocouple. We bring more than 60 years of experience in temperature sensor design to maximize the life and reliability of thermocouples in these environments.

Our vertical industry teams give you the expertise you require.

imageOur sales and engineering teams are organized by vertical industries.  We do this in order to thoroughly understand the applications and environments in which our products function.  Leading each of these industry teams is an experienced sales engineer.  If you are a Power Generation, Semiconductor, Oil &Gas, Furnace/Autoclave or General Industrial customer, we have the expertise you require.

We never give up.

imageWe never give up when addressing design challenges.  We never give up until you’re satisfied with the outcome.  Most importantly, we never give up trying to improve ourselves and the products we make.
