Vents for Automotive ECU

W L Gore & Associates is an innovation and technology driven solutions company that operates in the areas of electronics, fabrics, industrial and medical products. The company has developed vents for automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs). ECUs are the first line of defense in maintaining safe, reliable operation of automotive systems. However engine control units, anti-lock braking system (ABS) control units and electronic power steering units are subjected to extreme temperature fluctuations and other harsh operating conditions that can compromise their performance, durability and safety in the field. Gore automotive vents for ECUs are proven performers in harsh external and under-the-hood conditions. They help electronic control units to last longer, and perform more reliably. Helping OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to reduce warranty claims, the vents rapidly equalize pressure differentials; continuously diffuse internal moisture. The vents resist thermal shock by withstanding temperature fluctuations from -40°C up to +150°C. They enhance durability, reduce stress on seals, harnesses, connectors and housings. Block fluids, and provide a barrier to water and automotive fluids. The vents also block particulates, and prevent unit contamination by dust, dirt and debris.
