An outlet box assembly includes an outlet box housing, configurable between a first and second orientation, and a funnel assembly. The outlet box housing includes a first wall portion and a second wall portion. The first wall portion includes a first socket portion, including a first knock out portion, and at least one through hole. The first knock out portion includes a first knock out body and an area of weakening. The through hole attaches a plumbing fitting to the first wall portion. The second wall portion includes a second socket portion including a second knock out portion including a second knock out body and an area of weakening. The funnel assembly has a fixed funnel portion and a funnel cover configured to be removably attached to the fixed funnel portion. The funnel assembly is configured to direct fluid to the first or second socket portion.

A connection arrangement includes a first and a second assembly, and an elastically deformable locking element disposed on the first assembly. The locking element is configured to releasably interlock the two assemblies and, during mounting of the two assemblies, to deform into a mounting condition and, after completion of the mounting, to form an undercut which counteracts detachment of the two assemblies. The first assembly has a stop which is movable between an operative position, which assists in maintaining the undercut of the locking element and in which the locking element bears against the stop and/or in which the locking element is deformable against the stop, and a detachment position, in which the stop, in relation to the operative position, is spaced further apart from the locking element and in which the locking element is deformable into a detachment condition for detachment of the two assemblies.

The present invention relates to a stainless steel weld-less bulkhead seal device that facilitates the transportation of liquid from one containment system to another container or to allow such liquid to be retrieved from the original containment without the need for welding parts and fittings on the exterior of the container. The head of the bulkhead comprises six sides for easy installation, a shaft at the front of the bulkhead, a pair of ribbed buna gaskets for effective leak proof sealing, and a set of internal threads on the shaft of the bulkhead, which allows for additional pieces of threaded hardware to be attached to the bulkhead. A locking nut is threaded onto the outside of the bulkhead shaft, whereby these threads are tightened by turning to the left. That is to say they are reversed threads which will better resist pressure from the inside of the containment system or tank.

A threaded connection for steel pipe that provides high torque performance, high tension performance and high sealability is provided. A threaded connection 1 includes: a tubular pin 10 including a pin shoulder 12, a male thread 11 and a pin seal 13; and a tubular box 20 including a box shoulder 22, a female thread 21 and a box seal 23. The male and female threads 11 and 21 are constituted by wedge threads. The pin seal 13 is provided between the pin shoulder 12 and the male thread 11. The box seal 23 corresponds to the pin seal 13 and is located on the inner peripheral surface of the box 20. When the connection is made up, the pin shoulder 12 is spaced apart from the box shoulder 22. The threaded connection 1 satisfies the following expression, (1):
3%≤(LP−SP)/LP≤7%  (1). In expression (1), LP is the pitch between loading flanks 111 of the male thread 11, and SP is the pitch between stabbing flanks 112 of the male thread 11.

This gland for a sealed feedthrough of an orifice of a partition using a filiform component such as an electric cable, in particular, of the type including: a gland body for the passage of the filiform component, sealingly fixed to the partition to be passed through opposite the orifice; a seal in the form of a deformable sleeve, placed in a corresponding housing of the gland body, around the component; and a component forming a rammer for compressing the seal in the form of a deformable sleeve and deforming them in the housing of the gland body against the filiform component, so as to provide the seal between the gland body and the filiform component. The seal in the form of a deformable sleeve is in the form of a stack of annular seals.

A conduit seal that serves to connect conduits between different environments while providing sufficient insulation to mitigate condensation and molding issues. The conduit seal can also provide grounding continuity with an electrical conducting insert, thereby providing electrical continuity across a thermal barrier between the environments. The conduit seal can be used in a variety of applications including the food and beverage industry and the pharmaceutical industry.

A device for the sealed closing of an opening for one or more elongate parts to pass through includes a sealing and/or clamping element with at least two interacting first and second parts that are axially displaceable relative to one another, and a pressure contour acting axially onto the sealing and/or clamping element. A first axial displacement of the pressure contour and an axial displacement of the at least one second part relative to the at least one first part causes a first change in geometry of the at least one first part transversely to the displacement direction. Also, a further axial displacement of the pressure contour causes a further change in geometry of the at least one first part transversely to the displacement direction such that the opening is sealed around the one or more elongate parts passing therethrough.
