Engineered to enhance reliability in Solar, Automotive, and Outdoor Electronics by solving critical pressure and moisture challenges.
Rapid temperature changes, from solar heating to car washes, create immense pressure stress on enclosure seals. This leads to fatigue, seal failure, and ingress of contaminants.
Humid air trapped inside an enclosure will condense on cool surfaces, causing corrosion, circuit shorts, and optical fogging in lights and sensors. This is a leading cause of premature failure.
From rugged metal vents for harsh environments to low-profile adhesive membranes for compact electronics, our solutions are built around a core of ePTFE microporous technology. This allows air and moisture to escape while providing an IP68/IP69K barrier against water and dust. Find the perfect format for your design below.
Cost-effective and versatile solutions for high-volume applications. Ideal for telecom equipment, outdoor lighting, and general enclosures.
Robust and durable for harsh industrial, automotive, and outdoor environments. Offers maximum mechanical protection and chemical resistance.
Engineered for safety in hazardous locations and high-pressure systems like large battery packs and chemical containers. ATEX/IECEx certified.
A breathable vent prevents condensation by allowing humid air (water vapor) to escape the enclosure before it can cool and turn into liquid. By constantly equalizing the internal and external humidity levels, it removes the moisture needed for condensation to form, protecting the electronics inside.
Both types of membranes repel liquids. A hydrophobic membrane repels water. An oleophobic membrane repels both water and oils. Oleophobic vents are crucial for applications where the enclosure might be exposed to oils, fuels, or other chemical contaminants, providing a higher level of protection for automotive and industrial equipment.
The right vent depends on your enclosure’s volume, operating temperature range, IP rating requirements, and mounting method. Start by exploring the categories above. For a detailed recommendation, it’s best to contact our engineering team with your specifications. We can help you calculate the required airflow and select the optimal solution.
Don’t let pressure and moisture compromise your design’s reliability. Our team of experts is ready to help you select the right protective vent to ensure the long-term performance of your products.
