Advanced Subsea Connector Sealing Technologies

Hydrophobic Dielectric Gel Filling Systems

​

Following precision termination and comprehensive helium pressure testing, hydrophobic dielectric gel is expertly applied to fill subsea connector gland housings. This advanced sealing technology provides superior environmental protection through:

​

• Pressure equalisation via connector diaphragm systems

• Complete water ingress prevention in high-pressure subsea environments

• Mechanical stress reduction on connector body assemblies

• Long-term reliability in extreme operating conditions

• Chemical compatibility with subsea fluids and materials​

​
