Please Note: This is intended as a general guideline for sizing only; other considerations, such as: humidity level, frequency of air flow, ambient temperatures, and chemical compatibility are very important in sizing a breather properly. Larger applications and special circumstances typically require the most thorough analysis. Please contact Des-Case for assistance in sizing a breather.

Features

 Check-valves provide system pressurization, protecting system integrity and extending product life.
2–Filter Element
 ePTFE filter removes airborne contamination to 0.3-micron absolute. Stops free water.
3–Water Vapor Adsorbent
 Color-indicating silica gel adsorbs water from incoming air. Replace when color changes from blue to pink.
4–Filter Element
 Second particulate filter element protects against migration of desiccant.
5–Visual Indicator
 Windows on two sides of breather allow for easy monitoring of desiccant.
6–Rugged Housing
 Constructed from a PC/PBT alloy that maximizes chemical compatibility at the surface and impact resistance at the core.
7–Foam Pad
 Foam filter captures any oil mist and disperses incoming air evenly over filtration and drying areas.
8–Integrated Standpipe
Resilient construction provides durability and allows oil mist to coalesce and drain back into the reservoir.
Applications
- Harsh Environments
- Mobile & Off-Road Equipment
- Hydraulics – Wash Downs
- High Vibration/Impact
