Marine D Series
Marine D Series Electrical Connectors are a new product development. Designed to address the limitations of typical industry familiar low cost rubber moulded and compression seal connectors, the Marine D Series Electrical Connectors utilize incremental improvements in design, materials and modularity and provide superior performance at a comparable price point.
About the Marine D Series
Marine D Series Connectors utilise unique technology to align the electrical contacts and manage the crimped wire terminations.
The inclusion of injection moulded thermoplastic inserts in the optional PBOF terminated connectors provide a robust and reliable barrier to hose fluid at both low and high differential pressures.
Several features that define improvements within the range are subject to filed and pending UK and International patent applications
The connectors are ‘wet-pluggable’ and can be mated either on the surface or submerged underwater. Please refer to the product datasheet for additional information.
