- Do immersion proof breathers keep out water vapor?
No. They block the passage of liquid water but do not stop water vapor.
- How long can the breather be submerged?
That depends on the rating of the specific breather. Generally, the submersion time is a minimum of one hour.
- How deep can the breathers be submerged?
That depends on the rating of the specific breather. However, there are breathers that are rated to a depth of 45 feet.
- Do immersion proof breathers come in different sizes?
Yes. The smallest breather that we currently offer is the mini-immersion breather. Please feel free to ask for custom sizes.
- What kind of flow rate can I expect with a standard immersion proof breather?
This depends on the size and type of breather. Immersion breathers generally have low flow rates (a few cc to a few hundred cc per minute).
- Do immersion proof breathers open and close automatically?
No. Immersion proof breathers are also referred to as “free breathers” as they are always open.
