What Makes Our Compression Seals the Finest in the World?

Conax developed the “soft sealant”method of pressure/vacuum sealing in the 1950s and remains the world’s leading manufacturer of this type of sealingdevice.This “soft sealant”technology when combined with mechanical compression results in a remarkably secure seal on wires,probes and electrodesthat must pass through a pressure or environmental boundary.This technology is also designed for ease of installation,adjustment and replacement ofthe elements.Our sealing glands can seal up to 240 wires,and can withstand pressure in excess of 30,000 psig (2,070 bar). Conax continues to research and perfect this technology as we expand our capabilities to meet the changing need of the industry worldwide.Competitive seals that utilize epoxy fillings are easy to install but all too often are unreliable in protecting your environment because of incorrect bonding ofthe epoxy to the elements which allows gases or liquids to escape around the elements.With a Conax fitting,this is not likely to happen because of theconstant compression that is maintained around the elements throughout the life of seal.In additional,Conax compression seals are field re-buildable.

There is a ‘soft sealant’ material that’s right foryour pressure and vacuum sealing application. We can seal single elements or up to 240 wires Mechanical compression is applied to the sealant material within the Conax compression seal fitting to create an airtight fit.Our compression seal fittings are rated for vacuumto pressures up to 30,000 psig (2,070 bar).
