SBE 17plus Housing (depth) & Connector Selections -- MUST SELECT ONE |
||||
| 17p-1a | Aluminum housing, 6800 m depth rating |
Match connector type to those on 9plus CTD & SBE 32 or 32C Carousel Water Sampler you will be using with 17plus. Wet-pluggable connector options include wet-pluggable connectors on 17plus bulkhead connectors & on data I/O & CTD/SEARAM cables. Wet-pluggable connectors may be mated in wet conditions. Their pins do not need to be dried before mating. By design, water on connector pins is forced out as connector is mated. However, they must not be mated or un-mated while submerged. Wet-pluggable connectors have a non-conducting guide pin to assist pin alignment & require less force to mate, making them easier to mate reliably under dark or cold conditions, compared to our standard (Impulse XSG/RMG) connectors. Like standard connectors, wet-pluggables need proper lubrication & require care during use to avoid trapping water in sockets. |
