HydroGuard Breathers
Des-Case HydroGuard breathers uniquely feature an expansion chamber and internal check valves that create a nearly-sealed system. Designed specifically for steady-state operations with minimal temperature fluctuations, these breathers provide excellent protection in continuous duty applications.
Features

By the Numbers
1–Domed Cap
A domed cap allows for better washdown runoff.
2–Expansion Chamber
The diaphragm allows for expansion/contraction of the air within the casing as a result of temperature variations during steady-state operations.
3–External Ribs
External ribs on shell to create greater durability and grip when installing or replacing breather.
4–Integrated Nylon Standpipe
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, eliminating inaccurate readings of desiccant saturation.
5–Integrated Drip Ring
An integrated drip ring keeps shedding water from entering the vent holes.
6–Threaded Mounting
Easily replaces standard filler/breather cap with multi-fit connection or one of several adapters.
7–Larger, High-Capacity Check Valves
High-capacity check valves allow for increased airflow at low cracking pressure.
8-Filter Element
Polyester filter element removes airborne contamination to 3-micron absolute. Unique loops allow particles to release during system exhalation, helping to increase breather life.
9–Enhanced Seal
An enhanced seal eliminates potential for airflow bypass.

Des-Case DC-RS-5 Rebuildable Steel Breather
$1,162.79Rebuildable Steel Breathers Des-Case Rebuildable Steel (RS) breathers were designed specifically for applications, such as bulk storage tanks or large circulating lube oil systems, where there are very high temperatures, extremely polluted air, or a corrosive environment. They are ruggedly designed, with housings of powder-coated carbon steel or stainless steel. The hygroscopic agent (desiccant) is enclosed in a bag of polypropylene filter material. This desiccant bag filter is easily installed when it is time to replace or recharge the unit. The 1-micron pleated filter has a large surface area, resulting in long service life. Like the bag filter, it is easily replaced without removing the breather from service. Rebuildable Steel breathers accommodate large air flow rates with minimal pressure drops. Features  By the Numbers 1–Pleated Filter ElementFilter element captures airborne contamination to 1-micron absolute (ß1≥1000). 2–DesiccantSilica gel strips moisture from incoming air. Desiccant can be customized to mitigate a variety of chemicals or fumes. 3–Outside Sight Glass IndicatorSilica gel changes color from blue to light pink when the unit requires component replacement (or rebuilding). 4–Air VentsRemovable stickers keep breather inactive until installation. 5–Integrated StandpipeResilient construction provides durability and allows oil mist to coalesce and drain back into the reservoir. 6–Foam PadFoam filter captures any large particles and disperses incoming air evenly over filtration and drying areas. 7–Easy-to-Replace Desiccant BagPolypropylene bag has handles for easy removal. 8–Rugged HousingPowder-coated carbon steel or stainless steel housing provides excellent protection against the elements.

Des-Case DC-VG-4 Desiccant Breather
$142.98 – $857.85VentGuard Desiccant Series Breathers Des-Case VentGuard breathers have check-valve technology that isolates the system and only ‘breathes’ when necessary, making them an ideal solution to protect low-flow applications with intermittent operations. Check valves provide slight system pressurization that allows for controlled breathing without excessive pressure build-up. The system breathes only when pressured to do so, and then the air is cleaned and dried before it is introduced into the system, ensuring a clean, dry headspace. This control mechanism also prevents premature saturation of the silica gel and extends breather life, a problem not as easily tackled by standard desiccant breathers exposed to extreme moisture.
