Oilfield Technology,
Glenair has built a strong reputation in the marine, defence, and aerospace sectors by providing durable and reliable connectivity solutions for downhole, high-pressure, and above-deck shipboard applications since 1956. They excel in underwater connectors, custom high-pressure cable, pressure balanced oil filled (PBOF) assemblies, and connector terminations depth-rated to 10 000 psi (700 BAR. Common applications include naval and defense, deep-sea oil and gas industry, pipeline inspection (PIG), and oceanographic settings, as well as underwater dry-mate fiber optic and high-speed digital solutions with 10KPSI pressure ratings.
Here are some of the many Glenair interconnect solutions available now through Heilind:
Micro-PSI Connectors
When precision and reliability are critical, Micro-PSI connectors deliver unparalleled performance. The Series 707 Micro-PSI is an ultra-miniaturised 10K PSI high-pressure, high-temperature interconnect designed specifically for pipeline inspection applications in Magnetic Flux Leakage and Ultrasonic Pipeline Inspection PIGs. With their miniature size and high-pressure sealing capabilities, these connectors are ideal for downhole tools, sensors, and instrumentation in oil and gas exploration and production.
SeaKing Junior Connectors
Engineered to withstand harsh marine environments, High-density Series 701 SeaKing Junior connectors are the ultimate solution for offshore oil rigs and subsea applications. All designs are equipped with single piston seal nitrile O-rings to withstand exposure to corrosive chemicals and high-pressure environments and are 10 000 PSI pressure-rated. They feature high-density crimp-contact or solder cup inserts, and are significantly smaller than other, larger form-factor heavy-duty interconnects, such as the Glenair series 700 SeaKing.
ATEX Connectors
Designed for use in hazardous environments where there is a risk of explosion due to the presence of flammable gases, vapours, or dust. These connectors ensure safe and reliable electrical connections in such conditions, making them ideal for industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and other sectors requiring robust, explosion-proof equipmentIP68 rated for water, vapour, moisture, and dust protection in mated condition. Available in over 40 power and signal contact arrangements. MIL-DTL-50515 crimp-contact derivative solution.
Well-master Micro-D Connectors
Experience unmatched durability and performance with Glenair's Well-Master Micro-D Connectors, designed to deliver reliable connections in the most demanding downhole and well logging environments. Resists temperatures up to 260ºC. Ideally suited for harsh environments in oil, gas, and geothermal wells. Liquid crystal polymer (LCP) insulators enable these connectors to survive even the most demanding high-temperature situations.
Turboflex Wire & Cable
TurboFlex® ultra-flexible power distribution cables are turnkey high-voltage cable assemblies made to withstand full immersion, endure extreme temperatures, radiation, and chemical exposure. It is made with Glenair’s signature Duralectric material and compatible with their SuperNine Powerplay Series, Series 80 Mighty Mouse, Micro-Crimp PowerPlay Series, and Micro-D.
