Method of interfacing nonspecific conduits between thermally insulated gaseous environments

Disclosed is a system and method for sealing an opening through the boundary of a controlled thermal and gaseous environment such as an incubator or refrigerator, where conduit channels of arbitrary size and number are transferred across the boundary. A silicone or polymeric tube with flanges at either end is passed through the boundary opening, fixing one side to the boundary wall and attaching the other to a mechanism that controls or constrains the rotation of the tube. This is achieved by rotating or twisting one end of the tube, creating a hyperboloid-like structure that will seal around the conduits and thereby seal the opening. To further improve thermal efficiency, insulating material such as expanded polystyrene beads are placed into the space between the silicone or polymeric tube and the wall of the incubator, providing thermal stability that cannot be achieved by conventional conduit transferring methods.
