Micro In-Line Connector - 6 Pin Male MCIL6M

MCIL6M Micro Circular In-Line Connector — Overview

The MCIL6M is a 6-contact Micro Circular in-line subsea connector, male (pins) face, wet-mateable and rated to 10 A per contact (50 A per connector) at 7,000 m working depth. It terminates a free cable and mates mid-run, with no panel or chassis mount required.

6 Contacts 600 V AC/DC 10 A per Contact 7,000 m Depth 500+ Wet Matings IP68

Key Design Features

• Wet-mateable: mate and demate in seawater; each contact carries its own moulded O-ring seal, so a single seal failure does not flood the connector.
• SubConn Compatible: identical face geometry, contact pitch and 7/16-20 UNF-2A thread, so it retrofits existing SubConn panels and harnesses without re-machining.
• Gold-plated contacts: brass UNS-C36000 contacts hold contact resistance below 0.01 Ω across the full 500-cycle life.
• 10 A per contact: rated current with a 50 A connector limit for the 6-contact shell.
• Pressure qualified: 1,400 bar mated design depth, 800 bar open face, so the face survives handling and storage unmated.
• Moulded cable: factory-moulded strain relief, so there is no crimp joint to fail at the cable entry.

Typical Applications

Camera and light harness ends, dual sensor buses, valve and actuator control runs.

Notes for Selection

Six conductors on 16 AWG give the lowest loop resistance of the in-line range, with a 50 A connector limit.
