A Compression seal fitting, also known as a sealing gland, is intended to seal some type of element (probe, wire, conductor, pipe, tube, fiber optic cable) when the element must pass through a pressure or environmental boundary. A compression seal fitting may serve several purposes: * It restrains the element from moving as a result of a pressure difference. * It prohibits the leakage of gas/liquid media along the element. * In some cases, it electrically isolates the element from the mounting device. A compression seal fitting, unlike an epoxy seal or a gasket, uses mechanical components and an axial force to compress a soft sealant inside a body which then creates a seal. An epoxy seal differs in that it is composed of some type of compound which is poured into a mold in an attempt to create a seal. ==Applications== Typical applications include pressure vessels, autoclaves, holding tanks, pipelines, furnaces, or anywhere wires or sensors need to pass from inside to outside a vessel or wall where the pressure differentials or hazardous environments cause concern. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Compression seal fitting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
