[PSUBS-MAILIST] hydrophone



Ken,
 
   I will forward to you the needed "o" rings and the back aluminum plate should you not attend this years convention. I will give the instructions to help you on your way...This whole thing takes about two hours to complete.
 
  Parts list:
 
  1 - 1 1/2" PVC coupler that is 1 1/2" deep (I have seen others that are deeper)
 
  2 - "o" rings (I will mail these to you if you will not make the convention)
 
  1 - small "o" ring for pressure fitting to aluminum wafer to seal this connection
 
  1 - 1 1/2" PVC pipe segment (you need a very short segment)
 
  1 - standard water seal cable connector (see "special projects" under PVC hydrophone and view picture showing this connector)
 
  1 - plastic compression disk (Again, see picture showing this fitting)
 
  1 - Interface cable of desired length (You will want power cord coated with as soft a rubber coating as possible...It can be found at Lowes or Home depot. This is the trick to forming a good seal)
 
  1 - 1/4" jack plug from Radio Shack for this interface cable end
 
  1 tube of Velex or Silicone sealant to apply to the outside of the interface cable at the hydrophone seal to give added leak proof insurance.
 
  1 - 1 small tube of super glue
 
  8 - 1/4" 3" long bolts and washers and nuts
 
  16 - compression washers (these have a layer of rubber on them on one side) or rubber washers sandwiched under standard 1/4 steel washers
 
 1 - piece od Plexiglass or perspek that is 4" square (You will hole saw a thre inch circle from this)
 
-END OF LISTING-
