EExd Breather drain plugs
The Raxton Exd Breather/Drain Plug is designed to:
1) effectively drain moisture from an enclosure,
2) allow air from the enclosure to vent into the surrounding atmosphere thereby minimising moisture build up and
3) provide the explosionproof safety required by a hazardous area environment.
The Plug is fastened to the lowest point of the enclosure by means of a spanner.
The plug is an assembled item and must not be taken apart at any stage of installation.
The 'O' ring will seal against the enclosure face enhancing the I.P. rating of the Plug.
The Breather/Drain Plug has an impact resistance of 20 Nm and can operate at temperatures between -50°c to 230°c.
Tested to IP66.
