Humidity control and moisture protection

Brownell has introduced a range of 'Mini Immersion Proof Breather' products which prevent pressure build-up in equipment and can withstand driving rain or even total immersion in water for long periods.

Lightweight materials used in the manufacture of specialist electronic products often give designers a dilemma of either restricting the applications or increasing the strength of the enclosure.

Many electronic products produce heat which can cause a build-up of pressure within their enclosure, and without adequate venting the lightweight material could fracture.

Brownell Mini Immersion Proof Breathers, manufactured in plastic and metal for aggressive environmental applications, allow equipment to breathe, but prevent water and dust ingress in corrosive and hostile conditions.

They are capable of passing high flow rates of air resulting from rapid changes in temperatures and pressure.

Mini Immersion Proof Breathers can be fitted to desiccant tubes which are capable of removing moisture and other contaminates including hydrocarbon vapours.

The breathers can be screwed in place or mounted using a locking nut supplied.
