2173200-2

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 2173200-2 delivers military-grade reliability in Blade Type Power Connectors - Housings for undersea applications. This pressure-compensated connector maintains perfect sealing at depths exceeding 5000 meters while providing flawless signal transmission. Its corrosion-resistant materials withstand decades of saltwater immersion.The Receptacle design features a patented hydrostatic pressure balancing system. Unlike conventional O-ring seals, this technology maintains constant contact force at all depths.Employing Female Blade Socket contacts with gold-over-nickel plating, this connector resists marine biofouling. The spring-loaded design compensates for pressure-induced dimensional changes.Configurable in 4 positions, this solution supports both power and fiber-optic hybrid connections. The pressure-balanced oil-filled chambers prevent water intrusion.With 0.307" (7.80mm) pitch configuration, this connector supports both electrical and optical contacts. The hybrid design maintains precise alignment for single-mode fiber connections.The 2 row matrix provides optimal signal isolation in multi-channel sonar arrays. This arrangement maintains >80dB channel-to-channel isolation.0.246" (6.25mm) row spacing accommodates reinforced insulation for high-voltage applications. The extended clearance meets 5kV DC withstand requirements.Free Hanging (In-Line) versions include titanium shells for deep-sea applications. The penetrator design maintains hull integrity in submarine installations.Using Crimp methodology, this connector achieves perfect sealing at 10,000 psi. The glass-to-metal seals provide permanent hermetic barriers.The Black housing utilizes anodized aluminum for superior corrosion resistance. High-visibility markings remain legible in low-light underwater conditions.Incorporating Panel Lock, this connector exceeds MIL-STD-1344 requirements. The pressure-compensated design eliminates the need for depth rating derating.The Top to Bottom and Side to Side stacking orientation enables modular ROV tooling systems. The keyed alignment prevents mismating during underwater operations.
