Our Bal Conn® electrical contact is the solution of choice for designers seeking to ensure consistent connection in implantable devices used to deliver neuromodulation and cardiac therapies. Due to its redundant contact points, the Bal Conn offers very low contact resistance. Its canted coils provide excellent resistance to fatigue and more design flexibility than any other implantable device interconnect technology.
The world’s first integrated seal and contact system for active implantable devices, SYGNUS® combines reliable Bal Conn® electrical contact technology with proven implantable-grade silicone isolation seals, resulting in a connector “stack” that can accommodate lead diameters down to 0.7 mm. The system’s contact element consists of a housing made from medical-grade MP35N® and a platinum-iridium or MP35N® Bal Spring® canted coil spring.
Our seals are precision-machined from PTFE and other premium polymers, and they’re engineered to deliver longer service life and more equipment uptime. Their spring energizers ensure even, consistent wear, and their jacket materials can be customized to meet specific requirements in rotary, reciprocating, oscillating, and static applications.
Our spring mechanically fastens, conducts electricity, and shields sensitive electronics from EMI/RFI. Its independent coils, which serve as multiple contact points for optimal current carrying capability, ensure consistent, reliable connection—even under shock and vibration.

Shaping CHM Standards As members of the CTF, we helped to develop the cardiac IS-4 standard. We also contributed to IS-4 requirements for non-set screw connection systems. | Pioneering Therapies When makers of the implantable alfapump® needed to boost battery life and guard against leakage, a Bal Seal® made it possible. Today, the device is helping ascites patients all over the world live more comfortably. | Making More Connections Neuromodulation devices have been shrinking as demand for functionality grows. Our Bal Conn®, with its reduced axial pitch and sizes down to .020 in., lets designers build smaller devices that do more. |
