Glass sealed connector for electrochemical cell system conduit assemblies

Abstract

A connector includes an annular dielectric body, first and second metal collar structures disposed on respective opposing first and second sides of the body, first and second annular dielectric couplings at least partially inserted into the respective first and second metal collar structures, the first and second annular dielectric couplings respectively comprising first and second hubs located radially inward from respective first and second ring shaped outer portions of the first and second annular dielectric couplings, a compression assembly that extends through the first and second hubs and biases the first and second annular dielectric couplings toward each other, such that the first and second metal collar structures are pressed against the respective first and second sides of the body, a first glass ring seal disposed between the first annular dielectric coupling and the first side of the body, and a second glass ring seal disposed between the second annular dielectric coupling and the second side of the body.
