54773-1

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 54773-1 pioneers new possibilities in Terminals - Ring Connectors, specifically developed for underwater robotics and subsea applications. This pressure-tolerant terminal connector delivers reliable performance at extreme depths while resisting marine corrosion.The Multi-Stud configuration features pressure-balanced oil-filled chambers. This innovative design maintains constant contact force up to 10,000psi external pressure.Engineered for 6, 8, 10 Stud interfaces, this terminal employs hyperbolic contact geometry. The unique shape provides 40% higher normal force than conventional designs at depth.With 0.039" (0.99mm) pressure hull construction, this component withstands 20:1 safety factor at rated depth. Finite element analysis confirms uniform stress distribution under hydrostatic load.The 0.325" (8.26mm) dimension incorporates hydrodynamic flow channels. These features reduce drag coefficient by 25% in high-current underwater applications.The 1.165" (29.59mm) measurement includes double O-ring seals. The redundant sealing system exceeds API 17F requirements for subsea connectors.The Free Hanging (In-Line) design enables ROV-operable connections. The torque-limited coupling mechanism prevents over-tightening during remote operations.Utilizing Crimp technology, this connector creates pressure-resistant joints. The metal-to-metal seal maintains integrity through 5,000 pressure cycles from 1atm to 500bar.Compatible with 10-12 AWG conductors, this terminal features pressure-compensated termination. The automatic adjustment maintains constant contact pressure regardless of depth.The Insulated system resists seawater absorption. Testing shows <0.1% weight gain after 1-year immersion in 35ppt saline at 50 C.Incorporating Serrated Termination, this connector provides real-time integrity monitoring. The integrated sensors detect seal degradation before water intrusion occurs.The Yellow coding uses photoluminescent markers for low-light identification. The markings remain visible in turbid water conditions up to NTU 50.Fabricated from Copper, the contacts resist galvanic corrosion. The alloy selection provides <5 V/cm2 galvanic potential in seawater environments.The Tin plating prevents marine biofouling. Testing demonstrates 90% reduction in barnacle adhesion compared to standard finishes.
