OCC's New Rugged DIN Rail Enclosures

Fiber Optic Cable and Connectors for Oil & Gas

Monitoring and controlling pipelines is crucial to prevent breaches which can endanger life and property along hundreds of miles of coastlines. Oil and Gas operators are increasingly turning to fiber optic cabling solutions for end-to-end communications and control solutions. 

Ruggedized solutions include cabling and connectors that ensure survival of control architectures for onshore and offshore gas operations in the harshest environments. 

OCC’s line of DIN Rail fiber optic and copper enclosures offer a rugged and versatile product line ideal for secure terminations within industrial settings. Utilizing OCC’s existing 600 series adapter plates, the DTC product family is based on a proven design that offers versatility and ease of installation. The enclosures can accommodate one or two OCC adapter plates and include a splice block for fusion splicing up to 12 fibers.

Velcro cable ties for managing proper cable bend radius are also included. The DIN Rail enclosure features a fixed outer housing and a sliding inner housing with a hinged door providing access to the terminated cable. A capture screw secures the inner housing and can be removed in order to detach the inner housing completely from the enclosure. Upgrades or modifications to the existing network structure can be made as easily as changing an adapter plate.

In addition, the DIN Rail enclosures are manufactured with a robust all metal construction that protects the cable terminations in even the most adverse environmental conditions. Its compact size allows for minimum space requirements when installed in control cabinets.  Most importantly, this uncomplicated family of enclosures for industrial communications fits nicely with the entire line of fiber optic connectivity components and cable from OCC.
