    摘要: A dry mate cable connection (40) comprises a data cable (4). The data cable comprises a plurality of electrical conductors (23) and at least one electrically insulating outer layer (44) surrounding each data conductor, whereby the data conductors (23) are electrically insulated from one another. The cable comprises a termination end. The outer layer (44) of each conductor is physically in contact with an outer layer (44) of an adjacent conductor, except at the termination end. The plurality of electrical conductors (23) at the termination end are physically separated from one another by a single electrically insulating overmoulded cable termination housing (43). The housing is in contact with at least part of the electrically insulating layers (44) of each of the electrical conductors.

    摘要: A subsea wet mateable connector plug part (1) comprises a plug body (9), a plurality of data conductor contacts (12) arranged in the plug body and a plurality of power conductor contacts (6) arranged in the plug body. The data conductor contacts (12) comprise an even number of pairs (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) of data conductor contacts, each pair being aligned orthogonally with respect to an adjacent pair of data conductor contacts. The pairs of data conductor contacts (12) are so arranged as to form a data cluster (50). The data cluster (50) comprises an outer earth screen (5) adapted to maintain an electrical contact with an earth screen (22) of a cable. The power conductor contacts (6) are spaced from one another in the plug body, outside of and remote from the outer earth screen (5) of the data cluster (50).

    摘要: An ROV, diver, or stab, wet mateable connector plug front end housing (70) comprises a housing front section (72); a locator mount section (74); and a seal section (89), the sections being axially in series with one another. The housing front section comprises a plug coarse alignment feature (71) on an outer surface of the housing front section (72), adjacent to a front surface (76) of the housing front section and radially outward of a central axis of the housing. There is a circumferential groove (77) on the outer surface of the housing front section, axially displaced from and rearward of the coarse alignment feature (71), the groove being adapted to receive a latch (91) of a wetmateable connector receptacle front end housing (80). The plug coarse alignment feature comprises a bullnose feature. A plug fine alignment feature (78) is formed in the outer surface of the housing front section (72), aligned with and located radially outward of the central axis of the housing.

    摘要: A subsea wet mateable connector comprises a plug (1) and a receptacle (2). The plug comprises a plug body (19) and a shuttle pin (10) moveably mounted in a socket contact (18). The receptacle (2) comprises a receptacle body and a receptacle pin (24). The connector further comprising a secondary diaphragm (16) mounted to the plug body and a primary diaphragm (13) mounted to the plug body outside the secondary diaphragm. The primary diaphragm and secondary diaphragm are spaced (17a) from one another in a demated state, allowing fluid flow in the space (20) formed therebetween. The primary diaphragm and secondary diaphragm are sealingly engaged (17b) in a mated state, forming a continuous protective layer (26) over the receptacle pin (24) in a mated state.

    摘要: A plug part (70) for a subsea connector, the connector comprising a plug (1) and a receptacle (2). The plug part comprises one or more female conducting contact assemblies (18) each female conducting contact assembly comprising a female contact (51) comprising inner and outer conducting surfaces (55, 56), the inner conducting surface defining a cavity of the one or more female conducting contact assemblies and each female contact unit further comprising a shuttle pin (10) adapted to receive a male contact pin (52) of a receptacle (2). The female contact assembly (18) further comprises a solid insulator (50) mounted radially outward of the external surface and forming an annulus (40) between the outer surface (56) of the female contact and an inner surface (57) of the solid insulator and an orifice (42) between the cavity and the annulus.
