BASIC INFORMATION & QUICK REFERENCE
2.1
Product overview
DigiTRON connectors intended use is to provide low voltage and communications links between
pieces of electrical equipment that are submerged in water, e.g. subsea.
The DigiTRON range of connectors have been developed for long term reliable communications and
low voltage power control system applications associated with offshore installations. The underwater
mateable capacity of these connectors is achieved using pressure compensated electrical inserts
employing the CE principle.
Examples of connectors are shown in section 2.7.
Table 2 identifies each product type in the DigiTRON product range.
The products look very similar, so it is important to note the identifier for each product type.
