Miniature Desiccant Breathers

Lubrication failure is #1 reason for gearbox returns during the warranty period .

The Solution

Complementing the Des-Case disposable line are the Button Breather (DC-BB) and the DC-1. Offering some of the smallest case dimensions in the industry, these Des-Case breathers aid installation on smaller equipment and in tight or confined areas. The units are rated 3 cfm.

The DC-OC2 is a miniature oil-coalescing breather that provides 2-micron filtration for gear-driven pumps and applications that emit oil mist. Rated for 5 cfm, this Des-Case breather offers two-fold benefits by protecting both system lubricants and the environment.

Models, Accessories & Installation Methods

All units feature a 3/8" NPT male threaded standpipe for easy replacement of factory installed breather caps.
