Tandem seal adapter for use with a wellbore tool, and wellbore tool string including a tandem seal adapter
A tandem seal adapter (TSA) for use with a wellbore tool may include a TSA body including a first end and a second end opposite the first end in an axial direction, a bore extending through the TSA body from the first end to the second end, an electrical contact assembly provided within the bore, the electrical contact assembly being configured to provide electrical connectivity through the bore. The electrical contact assembly may include a bulkhead provided within the bore. An axial position of a maximum outer diameter of the TSA body may overlap with the bulkhead in the axial direction. A portion of the bore overlapping in the axial direction with an entirety of the TSA body having an outer diameter equal to the maximum outer diameter may have a constant bore diameter.
Universal plug and play perforating gun tandem
A method and apparatus for providing a universal plug in cartridge detonator capability in box-by-box perforating guns.
Contact plunger cartridge assembly
An electrical connector apparatus for use in a downhole tool comprising a housing, a contact screw within outer threads and inner threads, a contact plunger within the inner bore of the housing and a second cylinder protruding from the first cylinder. The contact spring is located between the contact plunger and the contact screw and pre-loads the contact plunger within the housing.

ELECTRONIC FUZE FOR PROJECTILE
An electronic fuze for a projectile, the electronic fuze including at least one electronic board arranged in a housing of the body of the projectile, the electronic board being encapsulated in a block of protective material. The electronic board is secured to at least one support rod partially encapsulated in the block of protective material. The support rod is inserted through a hole in a wall integral with the body of the projectile, and the support rod is secured to the wall by a fastening device. A first decoupling devices is interposed between the block of protective material and the wall and a second decoupling device is interposed between the fastening device and the wall. The electronic board is located towards a front part of the projectile and the wall is located towards a rear part of the projectile.
