BIRNS, Inc. has launched a new line of innovative fiber optic penetrators. The versatile design is tailored for the rigors of the subsea environment and can be adapted to a wide range of different cables.
The new BIRNS fiber optic penetrator line comes standard with pressure rating of 70 bar (1,000 PSI/2,300 FSW), but can be specified to higher rating, depending on the application, from ROV and AUV use, to defense submersibles and sonar arrays. These rugged penetrators are meticulously engineered to enable reliable fiber transmission through a bulkhead and are extremely durable—constructed of AISI 316 stainless steel that’s passivated per ASTM A967-05. They are rated for use up to 80°C (176°F) when fabricated with neoprene (polychloroprene) cable jackets, or up to 95°C (203°F) with optional CSPE cable jackets.
