Venting Protection for Your Application
Harsh or changing environmental conditions cause seals to
fail and allow contaminants to damage sensitive electronics.
GORE
®
Protective Vents effectively equalize pressure and reduce
condensation in sealed enclosures, while keeping out solid
and liquid contaminants. They improve the safety, reliability
and service life of outdoor electronic devices.
GORE
®
Vent Screw-In Series is engineered to provide oleophobic
protection and withstand the mechanical stresses of challenging
environments. Choose from a full range of sizes and performance
options to meet all your application needs.
• GORE
®
PolyVent XS has a compact, low-profile design that
meets some of the industry’s toughest standards, making it
ideal for today’s smaller (up to 2 l) housings.
• GORE
®
PolyVent Standard offers reliable venting for volumes
up to 5 l, and comes in two colors and two thread sizes for
different wall thicknesses, with or without a counter nut.
• GORE
®
PolyVent High Airflow has the protection level of
“Standard” – with nearly 10 times the airflow. For housings
up to 50 l, it easily manages the strong pressure differentials
caused by extreme weather.
• GORE
®
PolyVent XL maintains exceptionally high airflow in
extra-large enclosures (volumes up to 200 l) and meets the
most rigorous standards, such as solar resistance (IEC 62108).
• GORE
®
PolyVent Stainless Steel
Now with IK10 Performance
offers exceptional durability, chemical and corrosion
resist ance,
to reliably protect enclosures up to 20 l in the most rugged
environments.
• GORE
®
PolyVent Ex+ is both IECEx and ATEX certified for
equipment operating in potentially explosive environments
and offers exceptional venting performance for enclosures
up to 20 liters in volume.

GORE
®
Vents Screw-In Series:
• Easy to install: ensures fast, foolproof integration for
durable performance in any application.
• Increased safety: the rugged screw-in construction,
improved cap design and O-ring keep the vent reliably
secured in the housing.
• Reliable protection: even after immersion, the GORE
™
Membrane blocks contaminant ingress.
• Rugged durability: engineered for chemical, UV and
temperature resistance, and hydrolytic stability.
• Product quality:
100 % quality control, plus full traceability
for all vents with thread size M6 and M12.
• Flammability resistance: All PolyVent cap, body and O-ring
materials are rated UL 94 V-0. PolyVent XS, Stainless Steel
and Ex+ also incorporate a UL 94 VTM-0 rated membrane.
