Non-Desiccant Breathers
Des-Case Non-Desiccant breathers prevent contamination ingress in low humidity environments or in applications where water-based fluids are in use (e.g. water glycol hydraulic fluid). They help to prevent contamination by preventing free water as well as particles down to 1 micron from getting into the reservoir.
How it works
As wet, contaminated air is drawn through the unit, the hydrophobic media repels water while the pleated particulate filter captures dirt, preventing both from entering the equipment.
The Highlights
- Pleated filter element provides a large surface area and captures particles down to 0.3-micron absolute (ß0.3≥1000)
- Rugged nylon 6/6 housing
- Blocks free water from reservoir
- Prevents sludge deposits and water-contaminated oil
- Provides longer oil and filter life
- Reduces wear and tear on equipment, prolongs life
