Key Features of Waterproof Breathable Explosion-Proof Valve

1. Waterproof and Dustproof Design (IP68/6K9K Rated)
   With an industry-leading IP68/6K9K ingress protection level, this waterproof explosion-proof vent valve offers total defense against water immersion, dust, and high-pressure water jets, making it ideal for outdoor and marine applications.

2. High Breathability with Pressure Equalization
   Achieving an air permeability of ≥600 ML/min @1.5kPa and ≥1000 ML/min @2.5kPa, the breathable explosion-proof valve ensures continuous air flow while preventing moisture accumulation and maintaining internal pressure balance.

3. Explosion-Proof Safety
   Designed for explosion protection, this anti-explosion breather valve safely relieves internal pressure build-up, preventing gas accumulation and minimizing the risk of ignition within sealed enclosures.

4. Durable Aluminum Alloy Body
   The aluminum alloy construction ensures long-lasting corrosion resistance and mechanical durability, making the valve suitable for harsh industrial environments.

5. Optimized Opening Pressure Range
   With a turning pressure range between 7~13 kPa, this pressure relief explosion-proof valve ensures timely venting during pressure surges, preventing enclosure damage.

6. Compact Design with 4-Hole Internal Mounting
   The internal flange mounting with a 4-hole installation design ensures easy and secure attachment within various enclosures, battery packs, and control cabinets.

7. Efficient Gas Release Area
   Featuring a fully open exhaust area of 580 mm², the valve allows rapid pressure relief, improving overall system safety.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is a Waterproof Breathable Explosion-Proof Valve?
A: It’s a safety vent valve that allows air and gas to pass through for pressure balance while preventing water, dust, and hazardous gases from entering the enclosure. It also provides explosion protection by safely venting excess internal pressure.

Q2: Where is this valve typically used?
A: Commonly used in energy storage systems, outdoor communication cabinets, marine equipment, battery packs, and chemical storage containers requiring both waterproofing and explosion protection.

Q3: What protection rating does the valve have?
A: The valve meets IP68/6K9K standards, ensuring full waterproof, dustproof, and high-pressure spray resistance.

Q4: How does the valve prevent explosions?
A: The valve opens automatically within the 7~13kPa pressure range, releasing accumulated gases before dangerous pressure levels are reached, thus reducing explosion risks.

Q5: What materials is the valve made from?
A: The valve body is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy, offering excellent corrosion resistance and long service life.

Q6: Can this valve handle outdoor and marine environments?
A: Absolutely. Thanks to its waterproof, dustproof, and corrosion-resistant design, it performs reliably in outdoor, marine, and harsh industrial environments.
