Our Transformer Breather Series is designed to extend the life and efficiency of transformers by providing moisture control. These breathers use silica gel desiccants to absorb moisture from the air entering the transformer, thus protecting the transformer oil and maintaining its insulating properties.
Ensuring Durability and Reliability
Built from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials, our transformer breathers are built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, ensuring durability and reliability. Integrated with a high-efficiency air filter to remove particulate contaminants from incoming air, protecting the silica gel and ensuring maximum absorption capacity.
The breather features a pressure equalisation system that balances internal and external pressures, minimising stress on transformer seals and enhancing operational durability. It is designed for quick and straightforward maintenance, with easily replaceable desiccant cartridges and a simple visual indicator system for monitoring desiccant saturation levels.
Ideal for a wide range of applications, from small distribution transformers to large power transformers, in sectors including utilities, industrial facilities, and commercial infrastructure. Our breathers are versatile enough to meet the needs of the most demanding environments and specifications.
