ITT Interconnect Solutions has announced a new high-temperature electric power feedthru system for submersible pumps which is specifically designed for operation with conductor temperatures up to 450degF (230degC). Such a severe operating environment places significant demands on the individual components themselves and stresses sealing elements of the system, so ITT Interconnect Solutions addressed these issues by re-engineering the power feedthru, incorporating an innovative proprietary keying system and a new sealing system.
The engagement system between the BIW high temperature feedthru and the mating surface connector includes a brand new patented keying system, Metal-Lok™, which prevents rotation of the surface connector should it be inadvertently turned or mishandled. In addition, seals between individual parts of the BIW High Temperature Feedthru are protected by a new sealing system which can withstand extremely high temperatures, preventing the ingress of downhole fluids. Exterior seals to the hanger and top flange have been fitted with high-temperature O-rings and back-up rings.

ITT Interconnect Solutions modified the exterior surface of the connector for improved heat transfer and better cooling properties. Internal insulators are manufactured from high temperature PEEK®.

The BIW High Temperature Feedthru system has received CSA approval for use in Class I, Division 1 hazardous locations.

Electrical ratings are: 5,000VAC for up to 140A. Pressure rating is 3000 psig.
