Venting elements

Waterproof enclosures with high protection grades IP67 or IP68 for outdoor use are not automatically sealed against vapour and humid air. To avoid negative pressure, high humidity and condensation inside the enclosure a continuous ventilation and pressure equilibrium is necessary. This protectional function can be achieved by using a Jacob venting element JDAE, quick and easy to install. The body of the venting element is made from a flameproof polyamide PA6. Inside the venting element there is a high-quality, breathable and watertight PES-membrane, which provides a continuous ventilation and pressure exchange between the enclosure and its surroundings. The high level of water entry pressure of the membrane enables the high protection grade of IP66, IP68 and IP69. Link zum Youtube-Video? Our ventilation calculator (oder wie das Ding auf English heisst) will assist you in selecting the right size and number of venting elements for your application. For the correct calculation you need to fill in the dimensions or volume of your enclosure and the minimum and maximum temperatures that may occur.
