Teledyne Impulse-PDM’s 5135/5175 optical connectors utilize proven standard ferrule technology and are available for multi-mode or single-mode operation.
The connectors are manufactured in Titanium Ti 6Al-4V, which is electro-polished to remove surface contamination, thus improving resistance to corrosion. The engaging nuts are also manufactured in the same grade of Titanium and the threads are coated with a Nickel/PTFE composite coating to prevent galling. The connectors have been qualifi ed to 12,000 meter operating depth.
CCP connectors are supplied as standard on a double-ended assembly, or with robust molded ST connectors on the second end. Teledyne Impulse-PDM off ers a standard cable PDM 140 from stock, which can be used for either single mode or multi-mode applications. This cable has been qualifi ed to the same operating depth as the connector.
The o-ring sealing face for the BCR connector must be 25mm diameter minimum, with a surface fi nish of 0.8 micrometer and lightly smeared with silicone grease. The connector uses a single face seal. The mounting thread required is 5/8” - 18 UNF-2B, the axis of which must be perpendicular to the sealing face. The user must ensure suitable compatibility between materials when using connectors in seawater to avoid bimetallic corrosion. The BCR connector is supplied as standard with either a MU/ST/FC type connector. Any installation of the BCR connector must allow the jacketed fi ber on the dry-side up to 0.8mm of axial movement during mating and un-mating.
