Umbilical Floats

Umbilical Floats: Specialized Buoyancy for Umbilical Cables

An umbilical float is a specialized buoyancy device designed to support and keep umbilical cables afloat in water during various marine, offshore, and underwater operations. Umbilical cables are used to transmit power, signals, and fluids between surface vessels or platforms and subsea equipment such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), underwater robots, or diving systems. EZ Connect Umbilical Floats provide superior buoyancy and protection for critical umbilical cables in challenging marine and offshore environments. Constructed from durable, high-visibility polyethylene, our umbilical cable floats ensure cables remain securely afloat, preventing strain and entanglement during underwater operations. Ideal for industries such as oil and gas, marine construction, and subsea research, EZ Connect submersible umbilical floats support the reliable transmission of power, signals, and fluids between surface vessels and subsea equipment. With a modular design for easy installation and replacement, these marine umbilical floats minimize downtime and maintenance costs while maintaining optimal performance in harsh conditions.

  5. Weatherproof for All Conditions

    Our marine umbilical floats are engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions, including heat, cold, and prolonged seawater exposure. This ensures consistent, reliable performance in harsh marine environments.

  6. Optional Foam for Enhanced Buoyancy

    While foam-free for environmental benefits, optional foam inserts can be added to EZ Connect umbilical floats to restore buoyancy when needed, extending the floats’ lifespan and ensuring continued cable support.

  7. Reflector-Compatible for Increased Safety

    Designed with safety in mind, EZ Connect submersible umbilical floats can be outfitted with reflectors to enhance visibility in low-light or poor weather conditions, ensuring safer operations during critical underwater tasks.

Industrial Applications:

  1. Dredging

    EZ Connect umbilical floats can be utilized to provide buoyancy and protection for umbilical cables powering dredging equipment. By keeping cables securely suspended, they help prevent entanglement or abrasion, ensuring efficient operation in dredging projects.

  2. Oil and Gas Industry

    In offshore oil and gas operations, submersible umbilical floats can support critical umbilical cables, ensuring safe and efficient transmission of power, signals, and fluids between platforms and subsea equipment, even in harsh underwater environments.

  3. Marine Construction

    EZ Connect marine umbilical floats can offer reliable buoyancy for cables used in powering marine construction equipment, such as those required for building bridges, piers, or underwater pipelines. These floats help protect cables from damage during heavy construction activities.

  4. Mining

    In mining operations, particularly in water-filled environments, umbilical cable floats can keep cables securely suspended, preventing damage and maintaining the continuous operation of pumps and machinery.

  5. Wastewater Management

    For wastewater treatment, EZ Connect umbilical floats can be applied to keep power and control cables buoyant in treatment ponds and tanks. This ensures smooth operation by preventing cable damage from water movement or debris.
