ABSTRACT:
A flexible entry boot provides a fluid-tight fitting between a wall of a fluid containment region and a conduit passing through the wall. The flexible entry boot comprises a seal member disposed within the containment region; and a securing plate disposed within the containment region and releasably mounted to the seal member. A flexibly rigid, hollow support sleeve is attached to the seal member. The hollow support sleeve has a degree of flexibility sufficient to allow for the insertion of the conduit at angles equal to or other than an angle normal to the fluid containment wall while maintaining a fluid-tight environment. A mechanism is provided for releasably attaching the hollow support sleeve to the conduit. An outer sealing member is disposed outside the containment region; and an inner sealing member is disposed inside the containment region, the inner sealing member being matingly and sealingly engageable with the outer sealing member, with the wall of the fluid containment region extending therebetween. A mechanism is provided for releasably attaching the seal member to the inner sealing member.
