Push-Pull Connector for Oceanographic Sensors 2026: CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B Plug for Oceanographic Sensor Umbilicals for Indian Customers

The CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B is a 1C push-pull connector for oceanographic sensors — a waterproof 4-pin plug rated IP68/IP66 when mated, carrying a 10 A 24V DC power loop alongside an RS-485 marine communication bus over a single tightly sealed cable, with gold-plated contacts rated for over 5,000 mating cycles. Every specification in this guide is backed by the marine interconnect engineering of Spring Technology.

Pain point: Towing marine sensors behind a boat — side-scan sonars, water-quality loggers and tow-behind instruments that must send power and data up a single umbilical to the above-deck recording station, through salt spray, spray and constant motion?

Core answer: For Indian customers, Spring Technology supplied the CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B, a 1C series 4-pin push-pull connector for oceanographic sensors. It connects tow-behind marine sensors, side-scan sonars or water-quality data loggers to above-deck recording stations on boats. The 10 A 4-pin setup is perfect for carrying a 24V DC power loop alongside a high-reliability RS-485 marine communication bus over a single, tightly sealed cable.

This oceanographic sensor connector is built on the TGG.1C waterproof plug platform: a compact push-pull connector engineered for marine and outdoor environments, with gold-plated contacts and IP68-rated sealing when mated.

• Latching Mechanism: Push-pull self-latching system (anti-vibration & shockproof)
• Recommended Hardware: Spring Technology Circular Connector
• Key Metric: 10 A 4-pin setup; 24V DC power loop + RS-485 marine bus in one cable; IP68/IP66 when mated

Oceanographic work puts connectors in salt spray, spray and constant motion. The design highlights below are why this push-pull connector for oceanographic sensors is specified for marine data collection:

• 10 A power and data in one cable — the 4-pin setup carries a 24V DC power loop alongside an RS-485 marine communication bus over a single tightly sealed cable, simplifying the umbilical.
• IP68/IP66 waterproofing when mated — the 1C platform is rated for immersion, protecting power and data links from seawater and spray.
• High-reliability RS-485 bus — stable signal path for marine communication between towed sensors and the above-deck recording station.
• Gold-plated contacts — low-resistance connections that keep the 24V power loop and RS-485 signals clean during long tows.
• Push-pull self-latching — quick connect and disconnect on deck, with a lock that holds under 15 g vibration from boat motion.
• Proven durability — >5,000 mating cycles for repeated launch, tow and recovery operations.

The 1C series is Spring Technology’s waterproof push-pull connector family for marine, outdoor and submersible applications. The same 1C platform serves this oceanographic sensor connector and scales across the customer’s marine equipment range.

• Plugs: straight waterproof plugs (this order), in 1C shell size.
• Pin counts: 2 to 16 pins, with solder termination.
• Sockets: waterproof fixed sockets for panel mounting on boats and instrument housings.
• Keying: key G standard, with key A and B available for multi-connector segregation.

• Custom pin allocations and part numbers (such as the CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B) matched to each sensor’s power and data plan.
• Pre-wired umbilical assemblies for towed and deck-mounted marine instruments.
• Sealing verification for salt-spray and immersion environments.
• Key orientation selection to keep power and data circuits segregated.

Marine researchers and survey teams depend on one reliable umbilical between the water and the deck. This push-pull connector for oceanographic sensors carries that link for towed instruments.

Tow-behind sensors stream data to the boat while being pulled through the water. The 10 A power loop and RS-485 bus in this 4-pin plug keep the towed instrument powered and communicating throughout the survey line.

Side-scan sonars map the seabed from a towed body behind the vessel. The tightly sealed cable and IP68-rated connection protect the sonar’s power and data path from seawater ingress during towing.

Water-quality loggers measure conditions at depth and relay readings to the above-deck recording station. The CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B provides a dependable, weatherproof interface for these long-duration deployments.

This 1C connector delivery for Indian customers shows how Spring Technology turns its waterproof 1C platform into a reliable umbilical link for oceanographic work — from the CBTG1CB-KMSM04-D52B plug to its matching socket, every detail was aligned with the customer’s towed sensor, sonar and data logger requirements. Spring Technology also provides professional customization services for both push-pull connectors and cable assemblies, offering tailored solutions to meet your specific technical requirements.
