Protect oil reservoirs from air humidity
Brownell Sentinel reservoir breathers protect system fluids from the deteriorating effects of high humidity and water vapour condensation, maintaining system efficiencies
Brownell Sentinel reservoir breathers use two adsorbents to more effectively protect system fluids from the deteriorating effects of high humidity and water vapour condensation Newly added to the Brownell range of vent drying products, these advanced breathers are ideal for protecting reservoirs, fluid storage, hydraulic accumulators, gearboxes and transmission drives, and have a robust plastic construction, suitable for use in harsh working environments

Brownell NEPS1000 Advantage dry gas purge units
Brownell has introduced a dry nitrogen and gas purge improver, NEPS1000 Advantage, which can be used with most dry gases including argon, helium and SF6
They ensure correct plant functioning and the smooth operation of servo systems and hydraulic cylinders by maintaining fluid stability and consistency of properties such as viscosity and consistency.
The two adsorbents used in combination are silica gel and activated carbon.
Water vapour is adsorbed by the silica gel, which changes colour when saturated to clearly signal the need for recharging or replacement, while the activated carbon prevents exhaust vapours, system reaction by-products and out-gassing being released into the working environment.
A range of threaded and pipe adapters is offered to suit most installation applications. Request a free brochure from Brownell ...
