Steel Production Applications
The environment inside steel mills is hot, dusty and often humid. These conditions make desiccant breathers a necessity for companies who establish ISO standards for their lubricants and work to maximize plant efficiencies.
The typical applications found in steel mills include hydraulic systems, gearboxes, and lubrication systems. Some hydraulic systems are large (5000 gallons) and require multiple breathers to accommodate the maximum air flow requirements.
This hydraulic system has 5 Air Sentry® D-109 breathers to handle the air flow created by the potential maximum fluid flow.
