BIRNS Meridian M40-1 Titanium Connector Pair
POWER & PERFORMANCE
The BIRNS Meridian™ series is a dry-mate high amperage subsea connector line. This robust, custom engineered 225 Amp series is open face rated to 6km, and is perfect for battery packs and thrusters for crewed and uncrewed subsea vehicles that require high amperage power transfer. Select sizes are already being DNV type-approved for 6km rated crewed submersibles. BIRNS Meridian connectors are compact, and feature several pin configurations, with more in design for release. The M40 pin configuration has a single 85 mm2 (3/0 AWG) contact. Both standard and reverse gender versions are featured in the series, and all withstand reverse pressure, too, and can be installed into both dry and oil-filled canisters.
The Meridian connector line has a number of exclusive design features to create ease of use and mating, including a tactile alignment index ridge and arrows indicating the primary key position. The receptacles also feature a blue color band on the shell, which allows users to have a strong visual indicator that a connector pair has been fully mated.
