It simply out performs the competition, and at a lower price. In addition, it is the first of its kind to include environmentally approved disposable silica gel. The Application Air in any setting contains a number of solid particles and water vapor, even more so in industrial environments. Particle contaminants work as abrasives, speeding up component wear. This results in equipment failures and higher maintenance costs.
Water vapor can be just as harmful.
As the temperature of hydraulic fluid changes, humid air forms condensation inside the reservoir. This moisture decreases the fluid's stability and therefore reduces its service life. Sensitive hydraulic components are very susceptible to these contaminants. Expensive valves, seals, and other system parts require clean and dry fluid to function at peak efficiency and to prevent excessive maintenance costs. When the fluid level in the reservoir changes, air is drawn in through openings under the breather's top cap.
