Amphenol LTW M6 IP68 Pressure Relief Vent – VENT-PS2NGY-O8001

The Amphenol LTW VENT-PS2NGY-O8001 is a compact pressure relief vent designed to equalize internal and external pressure in electrical enclosures, electronic equipment and other sealed compartments.

Temperature changes can create pressure differences inside the equipment, placing additional stress on seals and increasing the risk of moisture ingress. Its ePTFE membrane provides controlled airflow, helping to reduce these pressure differences without compromising enclosure protection.

This version uses an oleophobic membrane, providing resistance to water as well as additional protection against oils and other contaminating liquids. Its grey plastic body, compact M6 × 0.75 thread and IP68 protection make it suitable for space-restricted installations and demanding industrial environments.

Important note

This part is supplied without a mounting nut and is normally intended for direct installation into an M6 × 0.75 threaded hole. A compatible nut must be purchased separately when installing it in an unthreaded panel.

The IP68 rating depends on correct surface preparation, sealing and installation. Avoid excessive tightening force, as this may damage the plastic body, thread or membrane.
