Abstract

The dual sealing fluid connector connects and seals pneumatic control or other fluid conveying lines with a pneumatic or other fluid control device. The connector further provides a seal with a panel through which it extends to isolate the regions on either side of the panel from each other. The connector has a resilient body which extends through an aperture in the panel. The resilient body has a peripherally extending sealing projection for engaging one side of the panel around the aperture to prevent the environments on either side of the panel from intermixing through the aperture. The resilient body further has a pair of axial bores which are connected at one end with the pneumatic control lines and at their other end with the pneumatic control device. A panel mounting clip has engaging portions which project outward from the resilient body for engaging the second side of the panel to lock the panel between the sealing projection and the engaging portions. The panel mounting clip further includes a pair of elongated portions which extend from the engaging portions axially through the resilient body. An anchoring portion is connected with the elongated portions for restricting axial movement of the engaging portion.
