Description
Polyurethane-jacketed cable with Cobalt 14 plug and locking sleeve on one end and M14 Simple Penetrator on the other end. For use with Cobalt 14 Bulkhead Connector (sold separately).
The Cobalt 14 series of underwater connectors expands the Cobalt line with a larger shell size, offering higher current-carrying capability while delivering the same reliability and affordability that have made the Cobalt line so popular.
Featuring 316 stainless steel shells and PEEK inserts, Cobalt 14 connectors withstand long-term use in seawater at depths up to 600 meters. Connector shells are keyed and feature a scoop-proof design, allowing them to be mated blind with no possibility of pin damage.
Cobalt 14 connectors achieve a hermetic seal without the need for potting or overmolding, making them more affordable than traditional molded connectors. The electrical contacts are pressed into a machined PEEK insert, which is in turn pressed into the stainless steel connector shell.
In addition to reducing cost, the unique design of Cobalt 14 connectors increases their reliability. Without a bonded rubber overmold, there is no risk of leakage from cathodic delamination. A simple, proven O-ring seal between the male and female connectors makes Cobalt connectors both easier to use and more reliable than wet-mate connectors.
The Cobalt 14 cable is available in 3-pin, 4-pin, 10-pin Hybrid, and 19-pin versions.
NOTE: COBALT 14 BULKHEAD CONNECTOR MUST BE USED WITH COBALT 14 CABLE OR CABLE TERMINATION KIT (sold separately).
