Abstract
A pass-through dual containment fitting that protectively seals a portion of pass-through tubing has a fitting body that incorporates a first end, a second end and a collar, each having a longitudinal bore for receiving the pass-through tubing. The second end having an extending nose portion. A radially compressive sealing device is engagable with the first end of the fitting body. When the radially compressive sealing device is fully engaged with the first end a fluid-tight seal is formed between the device and the fitting body. A dual containment sealing device incorporates containment tubing having a flared end and a flared end fitting. The extending nose portion of the fitting body is inserted into the flared end. The flared end fitting engages the second end of the fitting body to compress the flared end to the extending nose portion to form a fluid-tight seal between the dual containment sealing device and the fitting body.
