Once the connector body is fully seated, the locking cam cooperates with a locking tang on the retainer ring to hold the connector assembly together.

Abstract: A feed-through for feeding electric power to a submerged pump installed in a tank for cryogenic liquefied gases such as (LNG) liquefied natural gas and (LPG) liquefied propane gas. In the feed-through, a bushing made of an insulating material is inserted in the bushing insertion hole of a flange, and a conductor is inserted in the hollow part of the bushing. A gap between the flange and each end of the bushing insertion hole and a gap between each end of the bushing and the conductor are sealed airtight by seal members. A through-hole is formed in the wall of the bushing, and a space part communicating with the through-hole is formed in the flange. The pressure in the space part of the flange is detected by a pressure detector.

Abstract: A conductor leadthrough for a field device is for connecting two electrical conductors. The conductor leadthrough comprises an external conductor and a sealing apparatus. The sealing apparatus is divided into a first separation device and a second separation device. The external conductor comprises a hollow internal region that extends along a longitudinal axis of the external conductor. The first separation device and the second separation device are arranged along the longitudinal axis of the external conductor so as to be spaced apart so that they can separate a section of the hollow internal region of the external conductor. A pourable-sealing device is filled into the separated section of the hollow internal region of the external conductor so that the sealing apparatus can provide a leakage rate whose value is below a predeterminable value of a leakage rate. A signal of a predeterminable frequency can be transmitted along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A electrical connector for connecting conduit or cables to a junction box. The connector includes a tubular connector body with a longitudinal slot extending substantially along the length of the connector body and dividing the tubular connector body into an upper half and a lower half. A lateral slot extends through the upper half of the connector body at the leading end thereby hinging the upper half to the lower half at the trailing end of the connector. A tubular snap ring including one or more locking tangs is disposed and held thereon on the leading end of the connector body by a spring bias. The trailing body portion includes a threaded aperture and a threaded fastener therein. When inserted into a knockout in a junction box, the leading end of the snap engagement connector is held firmly but adjustably therein by engagement of the locking tangs with the panel, thereby allowing the orientation of the connector with respect to the box to be adjusted as desired.

Abstract: A cable sealing device (10) includes a member (14) includes an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted into a cable receiving aperture. The member includes a first wall (16) and a second wall (18) spaced apart from the first wall to partially define a cavity (20) between the walls. Each wall includes a cable receiving slot (e.g., 22, 24) formed in the wall. Each wall is deformable away from the respective slot to accommodate a respective cable portion (e.g., 26, 28) extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. The slots in the respective walls cooperate to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion (30) passing through the member.
