| Part # | Description | Notes |
| 5M | Miniature Submersible Pump - Centrifugal impeller, DC brush motor, 10,500 m titanium housing. Includes complete documentation. Specify: application dependent configuration selection. |
SBE
5M is standard pump supplied with SBE
19plus CTD or
optionally with 16plus or
16plus-IM to provide pumped
conductivity. If system includes dissolved oxygen &/or other pumped
sensors, order SBE 5T instead. |
|
SBE 5M Application Dependent Configuration Selections -- MUST SELECT ONE |
||
| 5M-1 | For use with SBE 19plus (continuous duty) | For 19plus in Profiling mode, pump runs continuously while sampling. For 19plus in Moored mode, pump runs for 0.5 seconds or more (depending on user setup) for each sample, & turns off between samples. Because 19plus is generally intended for use as profiling instrument, standard 19plus is supplied with 5M-1. |
| 5M-2 | For use with SBE 16plus (powered off between samples) | For 16plus/16plus-IM, pump runs for 0.5 seconds or more (depending on user setup) for each sample, & turns off between samples. Standard 16plus/16plus-IM is supplied with 5M-2. |
| SBE 5M Wet-Pluggable Connector Option | ||
| 5M-3 | Substitute Wet-pluggable (MCBH) connector for Standard (XSG) connector |
![]() (SBE 5T shown; SBE 5M does not have plastic end cap) Wet-pluggable connectors may be mated in wet conditions. Their pins do not need to be dried before mating. By design, water on the connector pins is forced out as the 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. |
| Pump Spares & Accessories (For cables to connect SBE 5M to Sea-Bird CTD, see CTD listing -- SBE 16plus, 16plus-IM, 19plus.) | ||
| 50062 | Pump housing O-ring kit (document 67029) |
![]() See
Application Note 75: Maintenance of
SBE 5T and 5M Pumps for additional details & parts that may be needed for pump
maintenance.
|
| 23594 | Pump end cap retainer | |
| 50391 | Pump impeller replacement kit (includes impeller, o-rings, thrust washer) | |
| 23593 | Pump impeller housing | |
| 23337 | Air bleed valve, pump plumbing |
Air
bleed valve (inside Y-fitting) allows air in plumbing to escape, for
profiling CTD (SBE 9plus,
19plus, or
25) deployed in vertical orientation. If pump motor turns on when
there is air in impeller housing, priming is uncertain & proper flow rate
cannot be ensured. |
| 30387 | 1/2" nylon hose barb Y-fitting | |
| 23557 | Snap-on connector, Male, for 1/2" diameter tubing |
23557
mounts to tube fitting & connects to end of SBE 4C conductivity cell. When
used with 23555 (below), provides quick disconnect for removing
plumbing from conductivity cell (used on SBE
9plus or
25 CTD). |
| 23555 | Snap-on connector, Female, for 1/2" diameter tubing |
23555
snaps onto 23557 & attaches to Tygon tube plumbing,
providing quick disconnect for removing plumbing from
SBE 4C conductivity cell (used on SBE
9plus or
25 CTD). |
| 30385 | Tygon tubing, 1/4" ID X 3/8" OD, 2 m | 30385 is part of conductivity cell filling & storage device (50087), connects syringe to plastic reducing union. See Application Note 34: Instructions for Use of Conductivity Cell Filling and Storage Device PN 50087 and 50087.1 and Application Note 2D: Instructions for Care and Cleaning of Conductivity Cells. |
| 30382 | Tygon tubing, 1/4" ID X 5/16" OD, 2 m |
30382
connects T duct to C duct for SBE 3 & 4C on SBE
9plus or
25 CTD. |
| 30388 | Tygon tubing, 1/2" ID X 3/4" OD, 2 m |
30388 is main
plumbing, attaches to pump, conductivity sensor, 1/2" nylon hose barb
Y-fitting, etc. |
| 31450 | Tygon tubing, 1/2" ID X 3/4" OD, 2 m, Black | 31450 can be used in place of 30388 plumbing tubing to minimize exposure to light, improving resistance to bio-fouling for moored applications. Beginning in January 2007, Sea-Bird is using this black tubing on all new moored instruments (SBE 16plus CTDs) that are integrated with an SBE 43 Dissolved Oxygen Sensor. If desired, customers may field retrofit plumbing on existing systems; contact Sea-Bird for pricing. |
| 30384 | Tygon tubing, 7/16" ID X 9/16" OD, 2 m |
|
| 30579 | Tygon tubing, 3/8" ID X 1/2" OD, 2 m | Small piece of 30579 Tygon tubing fits over ends of SBE 43 Dissolved Oxygen Sensor. Main plumbing tubing (30388) fits over 30579. |
