Air Breathers

KL93R

Hydraulic tank/reservoir air breathers.

70-80% of all water in hydraulic systems and gearboxes enters through conventional breathers. Therefore it is important to have a breather to remove both moisture and particles before the air enters the oil reservoir.

Air breather benefits:

  • Reduces water contamination​
  • Reduces oxidation of component surfaces​
  • Eliminates rusting due to condensation​
  • Longer oil life​
  • Reduces machine malfunction​
  • Extends machine useful life​

Air breathers are used on hydraulic tanks, lubricating oil systems, diesel tanks, transformers and gearboxes.
