Conax Technologies’ HL Compression Seal Fitting is designed for protection in a wide variety of hazardous environments. The Conax HL Fitting has been CSA® certified in the U.S. and Canada for use in hazardous locations defined by the NEC® as Class I, Div. 1 and 2, Groups B, C, and D; Class II, Div. 1 and 2, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III.

The Conax HL Compression Seal Fitting is a superior solution to Chico® and similar conduit sealing compound fittings commonly used in hazardous environments.

With a mechanically sealed Conax HL Fitting, you won’t need to worry about:

  • Cracks in compound sealant or incorrectly installed compound sealants that allow explosive gases or liquids to leak in the conduit system
  • Migration of explosive gases through stranded conductors due to a pressure differential in the conduit system

Both situations have the potential for explosive gases or liquids to cause corrosion to instrumentation or, even more problematic, to ignite when in the presence of instrumentation causing damage to property and possible injury to people.

Conax Technologies designs and manufactures a complete line of pressure/vacuum mechanical seal fittings and assemblies for wires and probes for virtually every industry, including oil and gas, petrochemical, industrial gases, wastewater and water treatment, instrumentation, and many others. A wide range of standard seal fittings are available from stock, and our expert engineers can create a custom-designed solution for your unique wire or probe sealing applications. Talk to us.
