Microvent® ePTFE Vent Membrane

Microvent® has developed a breathable and leak-proof vent that provides high airflow rates to manage differential pressure in printers and printing components. This durable vent resists inks with low surface tensions and provides a barrier from harmful contaminants entering the printing system. In addition, Microvent® Vents continue to vent after repeated exposure to liquids containing additives. Along with providing pressure equalization, the vent can be used to deaerate trapped air in the ink, allowing for continuous ink flow. In toner cartridges, the breathable vent provides the added benefit of humidity control.
