The Breather Valve is called an exhaust plug or breathable cap, which is an important component developed by our company for the reducer industry. It is mainly used to balance the air pressure inside and outside the reducer to ensure that the gas generated inside the equipment can be discharged in time when the equipment is running at high temperature or for a long time to prevent damage to the equipment.
When the reducer housing is outdoors or continuously running, the lubricating oil inside the housing will vaporize into gas and expand due to the temperature rise. At the same time, the internal gear meshing friction will also generate a lot of heat, which will further cause the lubricating oil and air to expand due to heat. These expanded gases will increase the pressure inside the housing, generate external force on the housing sealing oil seal, which may cause the oil seal to fail, causing the housing to leak oil or damage the motor.
The Breather Valve can allow these internal gases to be discharged by installing them at a high position in the housing, thereby balancing the internal and external pressures and preventing the sealing oil seal from failing due to excessive internal pressure. This mechanism ensures that the internal pressure of the reducer is always kept within a safe range during operation, avoiding equipment damage caused by pressure imbalance.
The Breather Valve is mainly used in reducers that need to balance the internal and external air pressure, especially when the box is in a high temperature environment or runs for a long time. For example, when the reducer works outdoors, or needs to run continuously to meet production needs, the role of the Breather Valve is particularly important.
The Breather Valve should be installed at a high position on the reducer box to ensure that the internal gas can be discharged smoothly. Before installation, ensure that the connection between the Breather Valve and the box is well sealed to prevent external gas or moisture from entering the box. Check the exhaust of the Breather Valve regularly to ensure that it is unobstructed. If the Breather Valve is found to be blocked or damaged, it should be replaced or cleaned in time to ensure its normal operation.
Effectively balance the air pressure inside and outside the reducer to prevent equipment damage caused by excessive internal pressure. By maintaining internal pressure balance, lubricating oil leakage and dry grinding of gear bearings are prevented, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. It is suitable for various high-temperature and long-term operation reducer environments to ensure stable operation of the equipment.
As an important component of our company's reducer products, the Breather Valve plays an indispensable role. With more than 20 years of industry experience and technical accumulation, we are committed to providing customers with high-quality, high-performance Breather Valve products to ensure the stable operation of the reducer and extend the service life of the equipment.
