20mm diameter venting element prevents internal damage

Even if an enclosure is in a stable environment, water ingress can still result from heat caused by the system itself. The company’s venting elements can be quickly installed on the wall of an enclosure, ensuring that the pressure inside an enclosure is maintained at the same level as it is externally, so no moisture-carrying air is drawn inside the system and condensation is avoided.

Mark Severn, Director of Sales, Hylec-APL, comments: “Almost all sealed enclosures on the market, especially enclosures with a high IP rating, are susceptible to moisture ingress if temperature changes cause a large enough pressure differential. Our low cost venting elements are as easy to install as a simple cable gland and can prevent failures which could cost thousands in lost productivity and repair bills.”
