Donaldson Hydraulic T.R.A.P. Breathers

Q: Does the TRAP have to be in a vertical position to function?

A: No! The TRAP breather can function properly in any orientation – sideways, upside down, on a slant, vertical, horizontal…..any way you need it.

Q: Can I use TRAP on construction vehicles?

A: Yes! The functions & features of TRAP suit both mobile and industrial applications.

Q: How do I install TRAP?

A: Simply insert the threaded stem into a threaded hole and tighten by hand.

Q: What happens when the silica gel fills up with moisture?

A: TRAP doesn’t use silica gel. It is a deliquescent breather. The new, patented thermally reactive media used in our TRAP breather actually regenerates itself with every cycle. It doesn’t fill up with moisture, but it does eventually load up with dirt/dust.

Q: So how long does TRAP last?

A: Our lab tests showed that, while silica gel breathers declined significantly in efficiency after 2000 cycles, the TRAP continued performing well even beyond 3000
cycles ... the TRAP wouldn’t quit.

Q: Does TRAP remove dirt?

A: Yes! TRAP prevents moisture AND dirt from entering your reservoir. It stops solid particulate down to 3 µm at 97% efficiency.

Q: I have oily mist near my reservoir and the desiccant breather I use now plugs up with it. Will TRAP?

A: No! TRAP has low sensitivity to oil mist. It also works well in environments that have high ambient humidity.
