IL1/BH1 Single Contact Power Connector - 1kV 250A (inline/bulkhead) and 3kV 90A (overmould/bulkhead) versions. High-current subsea power transmission at 300 bar depth, >500 mating cycles. Chloroprene rubber body, brass contacts, 1/0 AWG / 53.46 mm2 cable. For ROV power umbilicals, subsea transformers, and heavy-duty power distribution.
The IL1 and BH1 are SubConn Power Series single-contact connectors designed for high-current subsea power transmission. Two voltage versions are available: the 1kV version (inline and bulkhead) rated at 250 A, and the 3kV version (overmould and bulkhead) rated at 90 A. All models feature chloroprene rubber connector body, brass contacts, and nitrile O-ring seals for reliable wet-mate operation at depths up to 300 bar with >500 mating cycles.
