Effective pressure equalization for electrical wiring in hazardous areas using breathing glands
In conditions where there are temperature fluctuations and moisture, R. STAHL’s breathing glands protect electrical wiring from the effects of condensation inside the enclosure. For Ex d and Ex e enclosures, they therefore play a key role in providing explosion protection.
To make sure electrical wiring is safe, particularly where extreme temperature fluctuations and damp or humid environments are concerned, moisture must be prevented from entering enclosures and condensation must not be allowed to form inside. This is where R. STAHL’s breathing glands come in. These glands provide continuous pressure equalization between the inside of the enclosure and the atmosphere around the enclosure.
They are available in versions for Ex d and Ex e enclosures and in several different materials.
Prevents condensation from forming inside the enclosure
Ex d and Ex e versions
Material: Plastic, nickel-plated brass or stainless steel
In conditions where there are temperature fluctuations and moisture, the metallic Ex e breathers from the 781 series protect electrical wiring from the effects of condensation inside the enclosure. They provide continuous pressure equalization between the inside of the enclosure and the atmosphere around the enclosure. There are two metric and two NPT thread versions available for this purpose. An integrated connection thread seal and a special fixture nut are included in the standard version. They have worldwide certification according to IECEx, ATEX and cCSAus.
