Hawke Desiccant Breathers
The purpose of a Hawke Desiccant Breather is to effectively control the amount
of water vapour entering Transformers or similar equipment. Without such controls,
reduced efficiency or possible failure could result. It is therefore imperative
that the level of humidity in the air space in the top of the conservator tank
is kept to a minimum, hence avoiding any reduction in the effectiveness of the
cooling/insulating medium.
Temperature gradients can result in a change in the volume of the cooling medium
and/or air and the oil cup space. However, the Hawke Desiccant Breather provides
the customer with the most cost effective and reliable method of minimising
the amount of moisture entering the equipment
during such changes.
Why choose Hawke ?
Hawke has many years of experience in the manufacture and supply of Desiccant
Breathers to industries where control of humidity ingress is required.
Hawke products comply with the latest international quality standard, EN ISO 9001.
Why choose a Hawke Desiccant
Breather ?
Hawke Desiccant Breathers are made up of four basic parts, making assembly as
simple as possible and therefore keeping servicing time down to an absolute
minimum.
Hawke Breathers are filled with an environmentally friendly Desiccant gel which changes colour from orange to clear as it absorbs water vapour. Attached to the side of every Hawke Breather is a Desiccant colour change indicator, which allows easy assessment of the Breathers status. When the desiccant becomes saturated it can be reactivated or replaced dependant on the type of breather.
The HB range of Desiccant Breathers have a strong metal shield giving maximum protection to the glass charge, spare charges are available on request. Independent extensive testing of the oil seal has proved that it is more effective than other mechanical seals, making the Hawke Desiccant Breather the best on the market.
