Product Description

Des-Case Hydroguard Series Breathers – Closed-System Protection for Gearboxes, Pumps, and Low-Flow Equipment

Available from Armor Industrial – Reliable Contamination Control for Sensitive Systems

Des-Case Hydroguard Series Breathers offer a compact, closed-system solution for protecting gearboxes, pumps, and low-flow applications from moisture and particulate contamination. Designed as direct replacements for OEM-style breathers, these units isolate internal air from the external environment using a combination of check valves and an internal expandable bladder.

By allowing air to expand and contract within a sealed chamber, Hydroguard breathers prevent exposure to headspace moisture and airborne contaminants. This design reduces oxidation, slows lubricant degradation, and extends equipment and oil life.

Key Features

  • Closed-System Design

    The internal bladder expands and contracts with air volume changes, maintaining system isolation and reducing moisture intrusion.

  • Check Valve Integration

    Built-in check valves control air intake and exhaust, ensuring unidirectional flow and preventing environmental contaminants from entering the system.

  • Oil Mist Reduction

    A polypropylene coalescing media collects and drains oil mist, protecting the desiccant and maintaining breather efficiency.

  • Durable Construction

    Constructed with a tough nylon standpipe and corrosion-resistant materials, these breathers withstand industrial environments and daily wear.

  • Direct OEM Replacement

    Hydroguard breathers install easily in place of standard dust caps on gearboxes and pump housings without modification.

  • Model Options

    Available in two configurations: DC-HG-1 for compact applications and DC-HG-8 for higher-capacity systems.

  • Minimum Order Quantity

    Ships in cases of 6 units for convenient stocking and deployment.

The Hydroguard Series delivers smart, efficient protection in compact form, making it an ideal choice for extending lubricant life and equipment performance.
