Pressure Compensation
Pressure differentials in a tightly sealed enclosure result from heat generated by electrical and electronic equipment within the enclosure and fluctuations of outside ambient temperature. Pressure compensation devices provide IP66 protection in applications requiring slow pressure equalization. For optimal performance, install two plugs diagonally to each other.
