  • Patent number: 10734757
    Abstract: An electrical multi-connector feedthrough panel comprising a frame configured to couple with a structure and to seal, at least in part, a penetration in the structure across a pressure differential, wherein a first pressurized environment is disposed on one side of the sealed penetration, and wherein a second pressurized environment, different than the first pressurized environment, is disposed on an opposite side of the sealed penetration a plurality of electrical connector insert shells monolithically formed with the frame, each of the plurality of electrical connector insert shells protruding from opposite sides of the frame to form a respective passage through the frame and being configured to sealingly couple with at least one electrical butt connector to thereby seal the respective passage; and an electrically conductive coating disposed on the frame and on each of the plurality of electrical connector insert shells to thereby form an electrical bonding surface.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10516232
    Abstract: An electrical multi-connector feedthrough panel for sealing a penetration in a structure across a pressure differential, the panel including a frame having a first environmental interface surface and a second environmental interface surface configured to couple with the structure so that the first environmental interface surface and the second environmental interface surface span the penetration so as to at least in part seal the penetration, and a plurality of electrical connector insert shells monolithically formed with the frame, each of the plurality of electrical connector insert shells being configured to sealingly couple with at least one electrical connector, where the first environmental interface surface is disposed between the plurality of connector shells so as to be in fluid communication with a first pressurized environment, and the second environmental interface surface is disposed between the plurality of connector shells so as to be in fluid communication with a second pressurized environment
