Optical and combined optoelectric cable terminations

Description

The main application of these products is use as a part of geological and geophysical sea complexes, in towing operations, work in hydro- acoustic systems, communication lines, depth antennas, including products for military use when power conductors are combined with optic fibre channels for transfer of information in a single cable.

Commutation of cable conductors with block equipment is performed inside of the body of a device. As a rule, pressure seals are used in case of commutation of optic fibre cbles and combined optoelectric cables.

Optical and combined optoelectric cable terminations and pressure seals designed for connection of cables containing optic and electric conductors to equipment operated in any liquid area under pressure up to 60 MPa. Different versions of the pressure seals provide connecting 1 up to 12 optical fibres and 1 up to 6 electrical conductors with operational voltage up to several kilovolts. 

The terminals, hermetic in radial and longitudinal direction, protect connected equipment against flooding when cable sheath is damaged or a cable breaks.

Load terminations produced with the pressure seal or separately. The methods of their manufacture and installation are almost the same because performance of the load termination depends mainly from a structure of the cable and a type of reinforcing element.  Typically, a steel wire or high-strength threads are used as reinforcing element. If the cable receives little load, the load termination can be connected directly to the sheath of cable.
