Here we have a mark-up of our pressure housing and its complimentary cap. The housing will contain the on-board circuitry and (hopefully) keep it dry and functioning. Two large o-rings will be used in order to better seal the housing. Both the cap and the housing will be produced on a lathe and will be made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). UHMWPE is a tough, non-absorbent plastic and therefore well suited to our needs.
