RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] RFC - Standard Thru-Hull Electrical Connector



I’m just referring to the OEM connectors they use.  They probably make up their own cable assemblies in house and do the potting themselves with RTV or epoxy.

Again, I’m only going by the cables I saw to Dan Lance’s units which are as I described and used by police, military, etc.  I’m sure they all buy their cables pre-made from OTS.

Regarding the bell unit, if it’s not a catalog item, I’m not sure how to go about getting detailed info on it not to mention getting my hands on one to physically look at it.  Besides, I would doubt

they use the same transducer that they use on their portable 3 watt units.  Their 10 watt surface only unit (STX-101) has a transducer where the cable is potted or molded directly to the transducer

and the only connector is at the end that plugs into the radio and is the same as the SSB-2010 units.

Al,

OTS sells what they call a bell unit, which says diving bell to me, and that would need a full-tilt bulkhead connector. It doesn't seem to be a catalogue item for them, but I wouldn't be surprised to find they have something to use that doesn't require a dose of RTV. Police agencies and the military are less than pre-disposed toward bandaids like that.
