Sabritec Offers Watertight Connectors


Sabritec, a custom connecting devices manufacturer and Smiths Interconnect company, offers water resistant connectors for high pressure/low leakage applications.

Electronic equipment that is used in harsh environments requires connectors that can withstand exposure to moisture, dust and other elements. Also many applications require components to meet the Ingress Protection (IP) rating of IP67. Sabritec has developed water resistant connectors that can be successfully used in systems where moisture, humidity, water and dust are present. The Sabritec design method is capable of sealing up to 35 psi in the unmated, open faced condition. These connectors are ideal for high-pressure/low leakage applications in land, air, sea, and space environments. The water resistant connector features can be added to both filtered and non-filtered multipin connectors, coaxial, triaxial and high speed connector types.

Circular, Rack and Panel and D-subminiature Types

Sabritec has incorporated this watertight technology in connector types that meet the requirements of many connector standards including MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-26482, MIL-DTL-24308, MIL-DTL-83527, MIL-DTL-81659, and ARINC 600. The connectors can be designed to fit the envelope of the specification standard or can incorporate any special features desired, including different mounting types, unique shell or flange configurations, or EMI/EMP filtering.

Customer Defined Connector Types

Sabritec also provides water resistant capabilities to connectors that do not conform to any connector standard but are application specific designs as defined by unique interface requirements. Along with being sealed in the unmated condition, these connectors incorporate many features including threaded inserts, hybrid contact configurations (power, signal, coaxial, triaxial, and high speed), custom housing configurations, EMI/EMP filtering, and value added cable assemblies.
