Wet-Con
SEA CON® 's WET-CON connector series was developed to provide inexpensive yet reliable rubber molded connectors that allow the user to make and break connections both on the surface and underwater.
Manufactured using only high quality materials, the WET-CON bulkhead connector's metal shell is produced using DGS 1043 (UK spec) or CA630 per QQ-C 465 as standard, although other materials are available upon request including PEEK (Polyethereketone) which offers superior chemical resistance, excellent electrical properties, wear and abrasion resistance and is light weight. Contacts are gold plated to MIL-G-45204 providing superior corrosion resistance and stainless steel guide pins ensure "no miss" mating.
This connector range is available in a number of configurations ranging from 1 to 16 contacts rated upto 19 amps maximum current (dependent on cable) and a mated pressure rating of upto 20,000 psi.
The WET-CON series is also available with a metal shell body, individual single tail, extended metal shoulder and a water-blocked version which is suitable where there will be reverse pressure applied to the connector i.e. subsea electronics pods or ROV systems. For further information please contact SEA CON® .
The WET-CON series is suitable for a variety of applications including underwater television and lights, diver communications, ROV systems, recreational submersibles, towed-array cable systems, current meters, animal migration and research and food processing equipment.
SEA CON® maintains all facilities necessary to furnish complete underwater and environmental electrical connector/cable systems, including Research and Development, Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality Control and Pressure Testing.
As well as supplying our standard ‘off-the-shelf’ items, we have the capability to design and manufacture SPECIAL CUSTOMIZED CONNECTORS AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES to suit you individual needs.
SEA CON® also prides itself with the ability to perform stringent quality conformance testing procedures which are in accordance with the Mil-spec programs.
WET-CON connectors are intended to mate with WET-CON connectors only. Although the WET-CON and ALL-WET connectors look similar, the numbering pattern and color codes are not the same.
We recommend, as general practice, to verify color code and pin location before installation.
Micro Wet-Con
The Micro WET-CON connector series was developed to provide all the features of SEA CON®’s ALL-WET connector series, but in a miniature, industry standard configuration. The small size offers the same flexibility and reliability as our rubber molded connectors, in a light-weight and user friendly model.
The Micro WET-CON series allows for smaller through ports in a pressure vessel and a greater density of conductors in a compact area. The smaller cables decrease the overall weight and drag of an ROV or other vessel. This connector range is wet-mateable and therefore enables connections to be made underwater, on-deck or in any weather condition.
The Micro WET-CON series is a stocked item, which ensures quick delivery (in reasonable quantities) of standard configurations. Custom cable lengths are available upon request. Shorting plugs are available should you require the ability of looping together 'like' circuits for testing purposes within the dummy. Pin to pin shorting details need to be supplied at time of order placement.
The Micro WET-CON is made from a proprietary grade Neoprene. The standard locking sleeves are Delrin® (DuPont Trademark for Acetal Resin), which is lightweight, durable and user-friendly in the working environment (Brass and Stainless Steel are also available upon request).
Possible applications include: underwater television and lights, diver communications, ROV systems, submersibles, towed-array cable systems, current meters, animal migration research and food processing equipment.
The Micro WET-CON range has undergone complete Qualification testing including low pressure soak tests, full mate/de-mate and high pressure cycling to 10,000 psi.
