Redapt BD-U Breather Drain
Redapt BD-U Series of Flameproof Breather Drains has a primary function of effectively draining any water present within the enclosure, whilst allowing air in the enclosure to breath with the surrounding atmosphere, minimizing moisture build up within the enclosure.
Intended for use where an installation is subject to fluctuations in temperature which can lead to the formation of condensation and a subsequent moisture build-up.
This Breather Drain allows air within an enclosure to breathe with the surrounding atmosphere helping to prevent condensation and any potential damage to sensitive electric/electronic equipment housed within.
The Breather Drain will also maintain the IP66 rating of any enclosure to which it is installed.
Approved to the latest international standards, Flameproof Breather Drains can be supplied with ATEX (CENELEC) and IECEx hazardous area certificates.
