Compression Seal Fitting Selection Guide
- Single Element Sealing
Use these products when you need to seal a single element such as a temperature probe, tubewell, pipe, etc.These products are capable of sealing on items made of materials such as metal, glass, ceramic or plastic. -
-
Packing Gland (PG) Series- For sealing on anything from fragile tubes and soft cables to solid probes or instruments
- Element diameters range from 0.040" (1.0mm) to 1.50" (47.5mm) pipe
Midlock ( MK ) Series- Best used for sealing on metal elements and/or high vibration environments
- Stainless steel throughout – single ferrule is self-aligning
Electrode ( EG ) Series- Fully isolating for electrical power or instrument isolation to 2000V
- High pressure, high temperature and current capabilities
Electrode Teflon ( EGT ) Series
- Fully isolating for bare electrical power leads or instrumentation isolation to 8000V
- Teflon insulation and sealant material for high performance and chemical resistance
- Fully isolating for bare electrical power leads or instrumentation isolation to 8000V
Split ( PGS ) Series- Seals cables and leads when larger probes or connectors are attached
- See Split (PGS/SPG/DSPG) Series in Multiple Element Sealing section
– pages 64-67

- Multiple Element Sealing With Factory Installed Leadwires
Use these products when multiple wire feedthroughs are required to carry power or instrumentation signals into pressure or vacuum environments.
These compression seal fittings are manufactured with factory installed leadwires. -
High Density ( HD ) Feedthrough Series- Conax Technologies can custom design a sealing solution to meet your exact requirements
- A compact and reliable wire sealing design - does not use epoxy or potting
- Seals from 12 to 60 wires per unit, 24 AWG, Teflon insulated
High Pressure ( HPPL ) Series- For sealing on power leads or instrument leads in high pressure environments
- For applications with pressures to 30,000 psi (2,070 bar)
High Pressure ( HPEG ) Series- For sealing on electrodes in high pressure environments
- For applications with pressures to 20,000 psi (1,290 bar)
- For sealing on electrodes in high pressure environments
Power Lead ( PL ) Series- For high performance sealing from 1 to 18 larger gage wires sizes 8 to 20 AWG
- Rated 600Vac/850VDC @ 55A max – available with or without conductors
Transducer Gland Teflon ( TG24T ) Series- Utilizes 24 AWG Teflon insulated copper or thermocouple leads rated at 100VDC
- Seals up to 24 Teflon insulated, 24 AWG instrument leads per fitting to 8000 psi (551 bar)
Transducer Gland Fiberglass ( TGF / TGM ) Series- Utilizes fiberglass insulated thermocouple wire for applications > 450°F (232°C)
- Seals up to 24 high temperature insulated 20/24 AWG wires per fitting
- Multiple Element Sealing – Without Factory Installed Lead Wires
Use these products when you want to seal multiple elements of the same or different diameters such as metal tubing, ceramic or rigid plastic tube or pipe, temperature probe, a tubewell, low voltage instrumentation wire or a power supply feedthrough. These compression seal fittings are generally manufactured without factory installed leadwires. -
Transducer ( TG ) Series- For bare wire sealing where elements remain fully electrically isolated throughout the fitting
- Seals up to 16 solid wire conductors in wires sizes from 8 to 24 AWG
Multi-hole Ceramic ( MHC ) Series- Non-isolating fitting for multiple elements up to .125” (3.0mm) diameter
- Seals 1 to 16 elements – adjustable immersion length for each element
Multi-hole Metal ( MHM ) Series- Flexible design for special hole patterns, irregular shapes and mixtures of element sizes
- Seals 1 to 27 elements - adjustable immersion length for each element
-
Split ( PGS / SPG / DSPG ) Series- For sealing elements that can pass through gland body but not the internal components
- PGS seals a single element
- SPG seals 2 to 11 elements
- DSPG seals 4 to 17 elements
Sensor Wire Seal ( BSWS ) Series- Designed specifically for sealing on sensor leads in low temperature and pressure apps
- Ideal for embedded bearing temperature sensors, vibration sensors and proximity probes
