Protection

The robust PA6 housing and ePTFE membrane block liquid water while allowing clean air to enter.


Airflow

Air passes through the ​​GIEBEL HS-D​​ opening for pressure equalization as the system breathes.


Separation

Water droplets are repelled by the hydrophobic membrane and drained away safely.

Equalization

Balanced airflow through the thread connection keeps internal pressure stable and the system protected.
