How Do Silica Gel Breathers Work?
ZEOZORB® Silica Gel Breathers are designed to protect from moisture and particulate contamination in lubricants, fluids, and equipment. A Silica Gel Breather is optimal for use in less extreme operating conditions. These conditions would be temperature-controlled areas not exceeding 100°F. Our breathers are designed to replace the standard OEM breather caps on equipment.
For the most demanding applications, please see our ZEOZORB® desiccant breathers (here).
Features
- Silica Gel adsorbent capacity, less than 250 ppm H2O
