EQUIPMENT
AMBIENT AIR
OUR PROPRIETARY COLORASSIST™ TECHNOLOGY COUPLED WITH THE HIGH-CAPACITY DESICCANT DELIVERS 30% MORE LIFE.
Enhanced color indicator
ACCURATELY GAUGES REMAINING LIFE
IMPROVED IN-USE
VISIBILITY
Features
High-capacity desiccant provides 30% more service life than color indicating silica gels.
Enhanced color indicator that accurately gauges remaining life of the breather, diagnoses the source of moisture contamination, and improves in-use visibility.

High-quality umbrella check-valves that won’t clog or stick are located underneath the unit for added protection from washdown environments. Check-valves isolate equipment from ambient conditions prolonging breather life, and protecting system integrity.
The integrated standpipe provides excellent vibration resistance and dissipates impact throughout the unit, eliminating weak points. It also allows even airflow distribution throughout the unit, preventing inaccurate readings of desiccant saturation. Internal threads provide durability and stability and can be used with one of several adapters.
The oil mist reducer is situated inside the standpipe, made from polypropylene for maximum chemical compatibility. Mimicking nature’s intricate honeycomb design, this feature allows oil mist to coalesce and drain back into the reservoir, rather than compromising the desiccant
Shock-absorbing, clear casing provides reliable service, easy visual maintenance, and UV resistance..
Polyester filter elements remove airborne contamination to 3-micron absolute. Unique loops allow particles to release during system exhalation, helping to increase breather life.

Note: Small variations in the manufacturing process can be common and will be within the allowable engineering tolerances. All above data is nominal and provided for information only and subject to change. All metric conversions are approximate. This is intended as a general guideline for sizing only; other considerations, such as: humidity level, frequency of air flow, ambient temperatures, and chemical compatibility are very important in sizing a breather properly. Larger applications and special circumstances typically require the most thorough analysis. Please contact Des-Case for assistance in sizing a breather.
2Note: In addition to volume, desiccant type and airflow directly affect breather life.
