Overview
Donaldson enclosure protection vents for Powertrain combine filtration and venting technology for advanced component protection. The compact, direct attachment vents can fit directly into a drivetrain component or connect to a simplified hose configuration, offering flexibility without adding complexity.
These vents are not just passive components, they actively safeguard against water, external contaminants and harsh automotive fluids and provide continuous pressure equalization to protect against over-pressure or under-pressure during vehicle operation.
Donaldson offers engineering and design support of its integrated powertrain venting solutions for multiple industry applications including:
Features
Combined Filtration and Venting Technology
- Oleophobic and hydrophobic Tetratex™ ePTFE membrane equalizes pressure while protecting components from external contaminants like water, dirt and road salt.
- Proprietary Synteq XP™ coalescing pre-filter keeps oil aerosols from escaping allowing components to perform as intended.
Reduced Manufacturing Costs and Simplified Design
- Simple, direct attachment vents fit directly into a drivetrain component or connects to a simplified hose configuration.
- Hydrophobic technology allows vent to be located below a vehicle’s water fording line eliminating the need for complex hose routings.
Flexibility of Integration
- Two standard attachment designs allow integration flexibility
- Screw-fit design integrates directly into a component reducing the number of required parts and providing a compact, low profile design
- Hose-fit design fits onto the end of a hose, allowing for easy incorporation into existing drivetrain designs while reducing tubing length, eliminating parts and streamlining installation time
- Core technology can be tailored for unique applications
