Zusammenfassung:A method of constructing a port assembly for use with a single piece cavitation chamber, typically a spherical chamber, is provided. The port assembly includes a cone-shaped port, a cone-shaped mounting ring and a central member mounted within the mounting ring. The mounting ring is located within the chamber prior to the final assembly of the chamber itself, i.e., at a time in which the chamber is comprised of multiple pieces. After the final assembly of the chamber is complete, a central member such as a window, plug, gas feed-thru, liquid feed-thru, mechanical feed-thru or sensor assembly is placed within the chamber. The mounting ring is then pulled into place within the cone-shaped port, followed by the central member. To expedite assembly, specialized tools can be used to pull the mounting ring and the central member into place.
