ABF and MBF style air breathers feature large pleated surface areas which remove airborne particles three microns and above with exceptional dirt holding capacity. Higher dirt holding capacities extend the life of the air breather and thus the length of time between servicing.
The ABF-S40models are recommended for mobile applications and other situations where frequent oil splashing occurs. ABF air breathers allow high capacity airflows and are available with both NPT and flange adapters.
Filler Breathers are detailed on the pdf datasheet.
The Schroeder D-AB-2 and D-AB-4 desiccant filter breathers feature a dual filtration process, removing water as well as solid contaminants (2 and 4 micron absolute) ,respectively. Moisture can decrease a fluid’s stability and reduce its service life, as well as cause oxidation and rust. Use of a desiccant breather keeps air entering a reservoir clean and dry.
