Elesa expands ATEX line
04 January 2024
ELESA HAS expanded its breather cap product offering, providing solutions claimed redefine the functionality of sealing hydraulic tank fillers, alongside a new ATEX-compliant range, reflecting the company's commitment to industry-leading safety standards.
New breather cap solutions
These innovative caps enable smooth air interchange as fluid is channelled to or from the hydraulic reservoir. With Elesa's unique labyrinth geometry, they act as a robust barrier to spillage, perfect for equipment used at variable angles or machines in transit.

This range is beneficial to various sectors, including pumps, anti-spark installations, oil and gas, water and sewage, petrochemical plants, mines, and flour mills.
