From a single sensing point to a coordinated assembly package.
APPLICATION ENGINEERING
Your installation defines the solution.
Start with the duty, the equipment drawing or an existing interface. We bring the sensing point and its complete connection into the same conversation.
Cable assemblies
Specify single-ended leads, double-ended subsea cable assemblies or a coordinated harness. Resolve cable lengths, conductor allocation, connector orientation and end terminations together.
Explore cable assemblies ↗Custom integration
Bring mechanical fit, materials, electrical interfaces and the installation environment into one engineering brief. Agree drawings, configuration and verification scope before supply.
Contact us ↗CUSTOMISATION WITH PURPOSEResolve the details
Resolve the details
that make the assembly fit.
Mechanical fit
Mounting thread, housing material, target alignment, connector orientation and available space.
Electrical connection
Switching duty, control input, conductor count, pin assignment, shielding and termination.
Operating environment
Continuous immersion, pressure, temperature, water chemistry and material compatibility.
Installation & service
Cable route, bend envelope, strain relief, identification and access for replacement.
Verification & documents
Agree the applicable drawings, electrical checks, pressure-test requirements and supporting records.
Supply configuration
Individual components or an agreed assembly package, with defined part numbers and quantities.

Position switch, proximity sensor or limit switch?
Engineers use different terms for underwater position feedback. A proximity switch detects a target without mechanical contact. “Limit switch” often describes an end-of-travel duty, but can also mean a mechanically operated device. Define the required function and switching technology together.
Read the underwater switch selection guide ↗Can I customise the whole connection?
Yes — share the complete sensing and connection requirement. Switch configuration, cable length and construction, connector interfaces, pin assignment and termination can be reviewed together. Feasibility and operating limits depend on the agreed configuration.
Is the illustrated system a standard product?
No. It demonstrates where DepthLink switches, cable assemblies and interfaces can fit within a system. Grey mechanisms and control equipment provide application context. Each enquiry receives a defined product and engineering scope.
