This study compares the performance of two IP66-compliant methods for reducing condensation in security camera housings. The GORE^® Protective Vent was much more effective than desiccant at dissipating moisture, preventing seal failure and subsequent ingress of liquids.

This comprehensive comparative study validates the performance of our vents in both laboratory and realistic outdoor environments, ensuring that your electronics will meet the highest standards of reliability and durability.

Multiple testing processes ensure the quality and reliability of Adhesive vents: membrane tests for air flow and water entry pressure, lot testing of finished product dimensions and adhesive bond, and a manual, visual inspection of every part.

How do Your Electronics Survive in Harsh Environments?

Dirt, water, humidity, and high temperatures: Equipment used in heavy-duty industries must be able to reach peak performance even in the harshest conditions.

Sealed electronic enclosures, such as housings for outdoor residential battery modules, are susceptible to damage from moisture ingress. In this series of webinars presented by Gore's experienced protective venting team, learn strategies to protect batteries and sensitive electronic components from damage.

To have a positive effect on pressure equalization and condensation reduction, we recommend you to position GORE® Vents as described in the available document.

Low-profile Adhesive Vents are available in both standard and custom designs, offering the most flexible options: for manual or automated installation, for interior or exterior mounting on enclosures, and for adhesion to rough or smooth substrates. 

To ensure that our products deliver the performance and reliability that you expect, we conduct various tests and use key performance indicators during vent production.

The Snap-In Series delivers fast reliable installation and durable protection for enclosure volumes of all sizes: from less than 0.5 liters up to 30 liters. Ideal for high-throughput or manual production, the Snap-In Series offers multiple performance options, including new PolyVent XS:  a compact, low-profile vent for today’s smaller, thinner-walled, lighter-weight enclosures.
