UHBVPX-18S is a ventilation plug by Bimed which prevents water vapor congestion inside enclosure. Made from polyamide with a hydrophobic and oleophobic membrane. Thread: M40x1,5, 18 mm in length. Water intrusion pressure: 0,1 bar, average air flow: 2200. Protection degree: IP67/IP68 or IP69K. Operating temperatures from -20 to +100 degrees Celsius. Colour light grey, RAL 7035.
Pressure balance elements are an essential part of the housings. They have a ventilation function, ensuring air exchange, but more importantly they equalize the pressure, thus preventing the condensation of water vapor. Due to this, the components located inside the enclosure gain additional protection against moisture.
