The Hermesys HydraX™ High-Pressure Joint Enclosure is a heavy-duty fiber optic splicing closure engineered for high-pressure, harsh-environment deployments such as subsea, underground, and offshore installations.
Key Features and Benefits
- High-pressure resistance for deep burial and subsea deployment
- Stainless steel outer protection component (422 mm main body, φ118.5 mm diameter) for impact and shock absorption
- Multi-layer sealing system with heat-shrinkable internal sealing for reliable water-blocking performance
- Cable-end inner/outer armor crimping structure with buffer components to prevent excessive tail-cable bending
- Supports up to 96 fiber cores with an average fusion splice loss of ≤ 0.07 dB
- Tensile strength rated to ≥ 90% of the spliced cable’s breaking tensile load
- Minimum bending radius of 1.5 m
- Compatible with Hermesys Heavy Duty Armor Explosion-Proof Fiber Optic Cables and other super-armored or steel wire armored cable constructions
- Long-term corrosion resistance
- Rated service life of 25 years
- Operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C
Applications
- Subsea and Underwater Fiber Cable Splicing
- Underground and Direct-Burial Duct Installations
- Offshore, Petrochemical, and Mining Environments
