Abstract

A wall penetration panel with a cover plate made of a corrosion-resistant material and having a first side surface, a second side surface and an edge surface adjacent to the first side surface and the second side surface; a first gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a second gasket opening between the first side surface and the second side surface, the first side surface adjacent to the second side surface of the cover plate; a frame made of a corrosion-resistant and having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a frame opening between the first side surface and the second side surface, the first side surface being adjacent to and in contact with the second side surface of the first gasket, the frame have an depth and a thickness, and a rolled end having a partially cylindrical surface defining a partially cylindrical volume intersecting the edge surface of the cover plate; and a second gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a first gasket opening between the first side surface and the second side surface.

Claims (24)

1. A wall penetration panel comprising:

a cover made of a corrosion-resistant material and having a first side surface, a second side surface, a cover opening extending through the first side surface of the cover and the second side surface of the cover, and an edge surface adjacent to the first side surface of the cover and the second side surface of the cover;

a first gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a first gasket opening extending through the first side surface of the first gasket and the second side surface of the first gasket, the first side surface of the first gasket is adjacent to the second side surface of the cover;

a frame made of a corrosion-resistant material and having a first side surface, a second side surface, a frame opening extending through the first side surface of the frame and the second side surface of the frame, and a rolled end having a partially cylindrical surface defining a partially cylindrical volume intersecting the edge surface of the cover, the first side surface of the frame is adjacent to the second side surface of the first gasket;

a second gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a second gasket opening extending through the first side surface of the second gasket and the second side surface of the second gasket, the first side surface of the second gasket is adjacent to the second side surface of the frame; and

at least one wall penetration panel opening extending through the cover, the first gasket, frame and second gasket wherein the at least one wall penetration panel opening comprises at least a portion of the cover opening, at least a portion of the first gasket opening, at least a portion of the frame opening, and at least a portion of the second gasket opening.

2. The wall penetration panel of claim 1 wherein the cover, first gasket, frame, and second gasket are secured together.

3. The wall penetration panel of claim 1 wherein the first gasket opening, frame opening, and second gasket opening generally correspond in size and shape.

4. The wall penetration panel of claim 1 further comprising a seal positioned within the cover opening.

5. A wall penetration panel comprising:

a cover having a first side surface, a second side surface, a top edge surface, and a cover opening extending through the first side surface of the cover and the second side surface of the cover;

a first gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a first gasket opening extending through the first side surface of the first gasket and the second side surface of the first gasket wherein the first side surface of the first gasket is adjacent to the second side surface of the cover;

a frame having a first side surface, a second side surface, a rolled end, and a frame opening extending through the first side surface of the frame and the second side surface of the frame wherein the first side surface of the frame is adjacent to the second side surface of the first gasket;

a second gasket having a first side surface, a second side surface, and a second gasket opening extending through the first side surface of the second gasket and the second side surface of the second gasket wherein the first side surface of the second gasket is adjacent to the second side surface of the frame;

wherein at least a portion of the cover plate opening, at least a portion of the first gasket opening, at least a portion of the frame opening, and at least a portion of the second gasket opening are aligned.

6. The wall penetration panel of claim 5 wherein a rolled end extends over the top edge surface of the cover.

7. The wall penetration panel of claim 5 wherein the cover and frame are made of a corrosion-resistant material.

8. The wall penetration panel of claim 5 wherein the cover, first gasket, frame, and second gasket are secured together.

9. The wall penetration panel of claim 5 wherein the first gasket opening, frame opening, and second gasket opening generally correspond in size and shape.

10. The wall penetration panel of claim 9 further comprising a seal positioned within the cover opening.

11. The wall penetration panel of claim 3 wherein the cover opening is smaller than the first gasket opening, frame opening, and second gasket opening.

12. The wall penetration panel of claim 11 further comprising a plurality of cover openings within the cover.

13. The wall penetration panel of claim 9 wherein the cover opening is smaller than the first gasket opening, frame opening, and second gasket opening.

14. The wall penetration panel of claim 13 further comprising a plurality of cover openings within the cover.
