Abstract
A seal board includes a circuit board with vias, conductor pins, and solder joints. The solder joints connect and seal each conductor pin to a single via, such that each conductor pin extends through the via and extends from a first side of the circuit board and a second side of the circuit board. The seal board is mounted to cover an opening in a bulkhead that separates a first compartment (such as a terminal block compartment) from a second compartment (such as an electronics or feature board compartment). The seal board provides electrical paths between the compartments while protecting components within one of the compartments from the surrounding environment.
