Gore Vents
Industries Served:
GORE® Protective Membrane Vents help Design Engineers protect electronic enclosures, and virtually eliminate condensation. They help equalize pressure in enclosures that have been compromised with liquids or contaminants due to seal failure.
GORE® membrane vents are designed to provide a barrier against liquids, dust, dirt and other contaminants, while enabling enclosures to 'breathe'. Membrane vents equalize pressure within enclosures and handheld electronics in changing environmental conditions.
Venting applications include hand-held electronics, satellite base stations, cell phones, outdoor lighting, consumer products, depth finders and enclosures that require environmental sealing in rugged environments.
For sensitive speakers that need to be protected from liquids and contaminants, GORE® Protective Membrane Vents provide protection from water, dust and dirt. Call for specific acoustic applications.
Membrane vents are available in water resistant (hydrophobic) and oil resistant (oleophobic) versions, and come in explosion resistant metal versions.
