Lubricating oil and hydraulic oil depend on the quality of the oil for their effectiveness - they protect the oil and equipment from the intrusion of moisture and contaminants. Moisture mixed with oil is a great enemy.
The FG series is a moisture-absorbing air breather that contains granular silica gel to remove moisture from the air passing through it. In addition to preventing contamination ingress, this moisture-absorbing air breather removes humidity that can cause condensation and mix with water in transformer oil, lubricating oil, and hydraulic oil tanks. Generally, moisture mixed with oil promotes the growth of bacteria within the tank and accelerates the oxidation of the oil due to bacteria. By removing moisture from the tank, the growth of bacteria is suppressed, maintaining the quality of lubricating and hydraulic oils, which leads to stable operation of the equipment. It is suitable for use in lubrication systems of paper manufacturing equipment in high humidity environments and in hydraulic and lubrication systems of wind power generation equipment where maintenance periods are limited. <<Features>> - Utilizes highly moisture-retentive silica gel that retains 40% of its weight in absorbed moisture. - Easy to visually identify replacement timing through color changes in the silica gel. - Polyester filter media captures contaminants with a β value of 200 at 3µm. - Equipped with polyurethane foam material to prevent external leakage of oil mist. - Products with check valve specifications reduce air changes with the valve, extending the service cycle.

basic information
**Functionality** 1. Contamination Prevention: When contaminated air enters the top of the breather, it passes through a layered filter media that captures solid particles. 2. Moisture Removal: - The filtered air passes through a layer filled with silica gel to remove moisture from the air. - Silica beads attract and dehumidify moisture from the equipment's reservoir or tank, whether in operation or at rest. - The color of the silica beads starts as orange and turns green when it's time for replacement. **Advantages Over Conventional Products** - The silica gel is increased by 10% compared to our conventional products. - Moisture absorption capacity is improved by 20%. **Usability** - Protects lubricants and equipment from damage caused by moisture and contamination (particles). - Helps extend the service cycle of your equipment by suppressing wear due to contamination and the occurrence of bacteria caused by moisture, which leads to oxidation. - A check valve version is available, which reduces air fluctuations to the necessary level and extends the service cycle of the moisture-absorbing air breather. - It is screw-mounted and can be easily installed anywhere.
