MTR100With 45 years in the industry, the SEA CON Group are lead- ers in underwater connection system solutions and connector technology and provide an extensive, diverse range of electrical, optical and hybrid system solutions that include connector as-semblies, submersible switches and cable termination solutions for many applications within the oceanographic, defense, oil and gas, undersea vehicle operations, and environmental mar- kets. The company has evolved from a small California electri- cal connector manufacturer in 1968 to a global system supplier with 800 employees in Þ ve countries today. The Company The Company SEA CON has historically provided solutions to both current and future industry needs. It achieves this by identifying tech- nology gaps within a market and then solving those problems. A prime example of this is SEA CONÕs commitment to support- ing the use of Þ ber optics in oil and gas industry applications through development of dry-mate optical products, including the MINI-CON and OPTI-CON connector series; the success-ful underwater-mateable HYDRALIGHT connector; and the downhole multi-channel Þ ber-optic G3 connector series. To provide this broad spectrum of products and services, the SEA CON Group has six strategically located manufacturing facili- ties, each staffed with highly experienced design, development and manufacturing teams. SEA CON maintains multiple CNC machining departments, routinely manufacturing anything from specialized electrical contacts to components weighing hundreds of pounds. SEA CON also has extensive molding departments with a wide variety of composites/elastomers and an in-house glass-to-metal sealing facility. To complement its design and manufacturing capabilities, SEA CON has devel- oped extensive in-house testing capabilities including electrical, optical, dimensional, pressure, shock, vibration, and axial-pull equipment, operated by experienced staff. To support its prod- ucts in the Þ eld, SEA CON offers 24/7 Þ eld service support by highly trained Þ eld service teams who can provide an immedi- ate and professional response to any service requirement in any location at very short notice. The Tech The Tech SEA CON has provided leading-edge products and services for operations in austere environments for more than four de- cades. The companyÕs focus on technology can be traced back many years through products such as the ALL-WET connec- tor series. These connectors not only provided the market with the ability to mate electrical connectors ÔwetÕ, but through the pioneering ÒAll Wet split SeriesÓ also gave the ß exibility of con- necting multiple individual instruments (e.g., lights) to a single- interface penetration on a control pod. As industry requirements have evolved, SEA CON has adapted existing products to meet market needs. The Metal Shell Series (MSS) has been one of SEA CONÕs main product lines, providing high contact density and a variety of power and signal conÞ gurations. This series has also provided SEA CON with the ability to comply with American Petroleum Institute (API) standards by the inclusion of Ôtest portsÕ at seal interfaces, critical in todayÕs offshore drill- ing industry. SEA CON understands the importance of not only developing technology but also ensuring that the technology is qualiÞ ed in accordance with the appropriate speciÞ cations for applicable markets. This understanding and experience has been gained through many Technology QualiÞ cation Programs (TQPs) conducted by SEA CON, for products including the MINI-CON and the HYDRALIGHT connectors as well as the SEA CON Precision Hose system. 1700 Gillespie Way, El Cajon, Calif. 92020 1700 Gillespie Way, El Cajon, Calif. 92020 Tel: +1 619-562-7071 Tel: +1 619-562-7071 Fax: +1 (619) 562-9706 Fax: +1 (619) 562-9706 Email: seacon@seaconworldwide.com Email: seacon@seaconworldwide.com Web: www.seaconworldwide.com Web: www.seaconworldwide.com SEA CON SEA CON 30 MTRJuly/August 2013 MTR #6 (18-33).indd 30MTR #6 (18-33).indd 307/19/2013 10:59:09 AM7/19/2013 10:59:09 AM
