Abstract
A seal assembly includes a cap and a seal. The cap includes an engagement structure and a flange. The engagement structure is configured to couple the cap to an enclosure. The flange defines a plurality of openings that are open through a first side of the flange and a second side of the flange. The seal includes a seal body and a plurality of bosses. The seal body engages the second side of the flange and includes a plurality of bosses. Each boss is positioned in a respective opening of the plurality of openings. The seal is compressible against the flange from a relaxed state in which the bosses are flush with the first side of the flange or recessed within the openings and a compressed state in which each boss extends from the respective opening beyond the first side of the flange.
