Overview
Presentation

The TP Series connectors meet the highest standards of safety for aquatic environment. It is currently used in many
applications: vessels, civil construction, diving, heavy industry…

The TP Series feature a large range of shell styles and layouts. Derived from the widely recognized marine bronze
M Series, the TP Series are the perfect trade off between high performances and cost efficiency.

TP Series | Overview

Features & Benefits

Sealed and reliable connectors

 Field proven « Harpoon » contact technology for contact to insert sealing

 O-ring for insert to shell sealing on both receptacle and plug
 Redundancy with 2 O-rings on plug taper seat
 Conical coupling interface to reduce the stress on O-rings

Panel O-ring Plug mating O-rings

Receptacle insert/shell O-ring

Plug insert/shell O-ring

High performance sealing and mechanical retention

 Perfect sealing on cable jacket is achieved with the compression of a pressure gland integrated into the plug’s backshell. Robust
cable clamp ensures the mechanical retention of the cable. A removable protective boot is added on the backshell for additional
sealing and cable support.

TP Series | Overview

Features & Benefits

High grade materials

 Shells are made of nickel plated brass specially designed for industry requirements regarding watertight products in harsh
environment. This material provides a good corrosion resistance in sea environment, a high electrical conductivity along with
good mechanical properties and resistance to biological fouling.

 O-rings are made from Nitrile for excellent fluid compatibility (sea water, mineral oil…) and long durability.

 Contacts are gold over nickel plated brass.

 RoHS compliant. COMPLIANT

Easy wiring and installation

Overview
 Scoop proof: No risk of damaging contacts during the coupling operation when using a female plug and a male receptacle.

 Removable insulators: To allow easy wiring and replacement in case of wiring mistakes or servicing.

 Easy mating: Easy coupling operation thanks to the screw coupling and locking even with a high number of contact

 Equipment protection: No coupling mistake thanks to the polarization key.

Recommendations

Watertightness of the TP Series connectors

Watertightness is achieved through the use of a packing-block and performance will depend on cable quality:
. Hardness (shore A hardness > 70 is recommended)
. Cylindricity and circularity
. Roughness
. Cable outer diameter tolerance (maximum tolerance of 1 mm on outer diameter is recommended)
