Protective Vents are designed to provide protection from particles, oils, and liquids without negatively affecting the operation of the device. They are comprised of a filtration material that can be welded to a plastic housing or directly onto the device.
Vent Assemblies provide protection from particles, oils, and liquids while allowing pressure equalization in enclosures. Vent Assemblies are typically used in devices where adhesives are not appropriate, where chemical incompatibilities or extreme temperatures exist, in devices requiring physical protection of the filter path, and/or ease of assembly into the device.
Screw Vents provide protection from particles, water, oils, and other fluids while allowing pressure equalization in enclosures. This durable, threaded vent is easily integrated into existing equipment and can be used in a variety of applications including sensors, lighting enclosures, and other automotive enclosures where protective venting is required. Screw Vents are ideal for harsh environments where protection of the vent is necessary.
Snap-Fit Vents provide dust and liquid protection while equalizing pressure. The robust design provides maximum protection from harsh environments and can be easily integrated into your device for quick assembly. The secure vent cap design will not separate from the body during installation or application. Both standard and low profile designs are available.
Powertrain Vents are durable automotive-grade vents that provide dust and liquid protection while equalizing pressure. An innovative oleophobic coalescing pre-filter ensures performance for life of device. Powertrain Vents offer high strength, high temperature resistance, and resistance to harsh environments.
