# Installing a Penetrator, Device, or Plug

Each of the six penetrator holes in the Manifold 5x requires either a penetrator with a cable, a plug, or a device such as a BAR30 pressure/temperature sensor.

Blue Robotics has a very nice explanation of how to prepare and install penetrators [here](https://bluerobotics.com/learn/wetlink-penetrator-installation-guide/).

{% hint style="info" %}
Water damage caused by leaks due to improper preparation or installation of penetrators or installation of the case back is not covered under warranty.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Note that one penetrator position has internal threads. No nut is needed for this position.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
