It is via these processes that pb^`lkidentified a design enhancement to the tbqj `lkconnector FEATURESThe design change is associated with the Male Pin connectors only and has been introduced to improve and extend the life of the connec-tors by decreasing the stresses that are applied to the sealing interface between the male contact pin and the sealing rubber around the pinduring the connectors mate and de-mate cycles.

3 The newly designed male contact has a "Lead in" as part of the contact pin itself which replaces the current rubber lead in. The introductionof the new pin removes any potential wear to the sealing interface between the male contact pin and the sealing rubber around the pin whichmay occur with many repeated make and breaks of the connector pairs. The new pin will maintain the full connector sealing properties andwill provide a greater life expectancy of the incorporation of this design change to the Male Pin connectors will not affect the existing Female Socket connectors currently being usedbypb^`lk's customers and therefore full intermateability will be maintained.

4 In addition, pb^`lkwould also like to confirm that pricing willalso not be new pin design concept has been fully tested and has been utilized in both the rJj^qbandSEA-MATE connector ranges for a num-ber of AND IPX8 CERTIFICATIONAWARDED TO pb^`lk(europe) LTDpb^`lk(europe) Ltd is pleased to advise that it's tbqj `lkconnector series is now approved to IP Codes (Ingress Protection) 68 and two international standards classify the level of protection provided against the intrusion of dust and water in electrical enclosures. In order to meet the requirements of the IP68 and IPX8 standards, sample connectors were sent to an independent testing house and sub-jected to various tests as per the agreed program including pressure testing to 101 bar for a 24 hour period.

5 All test samples successfullypassed and therefore conform to the following conditions: Dust tight - No ingress of dust, complete protection against contact with dust. Immersion beyond 1 meter - Suitable for continuous immersion in water, under conditions specified by pb^`lk(europe) WC 4 XIVtbqJ`lk SERIESUNDERWATER ELECTRICAL WET-MATE CONNECTORSINTRODUCTIONpb^`lk's tbqJ`lk connector series was developed to provide inexpensive yet reliable rubber molded connectors that allow the user to make and break connections both on the surface and using only high quality materials, the tbqJ`lk bulk-head connector's metal shell is produced using DGS 1043 (UK spec)

6 Or CA630 per QQ-C-465 as standard, although other materials are available upon request including PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) which offers superior chemical resistance, excellent electrical prop-erties, wear and abrasion resistance and is light weight. Contacts are gold plated to ASTM B488 providing superior corrosion resistance and stainless steel guide pins ensure "no miss" connector range is available in a number of configurations rang-ing from 1 to 16 contacts rated upto 19 amps maximum current (dependent on cable) and a mated pressure rating of upto 20,000 psi. The tbqJ`lk series is also available with a metal shell body, indi-vidual single tail, extended metal shoulder.
