Tank Filler-Breathers

These provide filler ports for hydraulic power unit tanks or other liquid reservoirs. Liquids are strained as they are added to the tank and it lets the tank breathe filtered air.

The 30-mesh filler screen removes dirt and debris from liquids as they enter the systems. The breather cap filters the air, trapping airborne dirt down to 40- or 10-micron levels. It permits air passage at up to 25 scfm. Mounting hardware, gaskets, and templates are supplied.
