Breathers

A heavy-duty breather incorporating an orifice to remove grid and water particles from the air that it breathes.  The Orifice is between the base and the top cap with a stilling chamber behind it.  Originally developed for the coal mining industry with associated low roofs, it has found applications in numerous other mines and industry where a robust and reliable breather is required on gear-boxes, hydraulic systems and silencers on pneumatic pumps.  Our breathers are used as O/E equipment on mining machines and gearboxes and are exported overseas and in Africa as part of the machines.
