Abstract
A penetration fitting for passing pipes, cables, wires, etc., through a shell or wall that forms a pressure boundary. The combination of a penetrator that is solid metal except for pressure boundary channels, and a single compensating sleeve permits a relatively large number of pipes to be brought across a relatively small area of a vessel shell or wall while still maintaining the structural integrity of the vessel shell or wall.
