The patented hybrid design combines the functions of filtration, desiccant and membrane technology into one cost-effective package to effectively eliminate ingression of dirt and water through the filler/breather ports.
A major benefit of the hybrid breather is that lubricants are virtually isolated from surrounding contaminants. The system “breathes” yet can withstand driving rain or direct wash-down spray. A diaphragm allows for expansion and contraction of air within the casing as a result of temperature variation during steady state operations. Enclosed filter media protects down to 3µ, while the desiccant stack prohibits moisture entry.
The Des-Case Hydroguard™ breather handles air volume caused by thermal expansion and contraction only. The threaded standpipe design can easily be adapted to any size reservoir opening.
