10-09-2019 | TTI Europe | Connectors, Switches & EMECH

TE Connectivity's SEACON WET-CON connector series was created to give inexpensive yet reliable rubber moulded connectors that enable the user to create and break connections both on the surface and underwater. The connectors are available now from TTI Europe.

Manufactured utilising only high-quality materials, the bulkhead connector's metal shell is constructed using DGS 1043 (UK spec) or CA630 per QQ-C-465 as standard, although other materials are offered upon request including PEEK. Contacts are gold-plated to MIL-G-45204, giving superior corrosion resistance.

This series is offered in both round and low profile industry standard configurations.

Typical applications include ROV equipment (lights, cameras, thrusters), oceanographic instruments, diver equipment, and defence fields.
