Parker Hydraulic Tank Desiccant Breather

Desiccant breathers for hydraulic tanks can be added to existing hydraulic systems to add new functionality and to remove moisture from incoming ambient air. They can also be used to replace existing filters that are no longer active. Filters should be changed when the desiccant color has changed from blue to pink. Moisture in hydraulic fluid can change viscosity, affect flow rates, and cause vibration that can damage system components. Use desiccant breathers in hydraulic systems that encounter high temperature swings and humidity, such as paper and pulp processing, gear boxes, transformers, and mobile equipment.
