How does Tank Breather Valve Works

The first one is to breathe or inhale when a certain pressure is reached; The other is designed as pure breathing without suction, which can be understood as two check valves with appropriate pressure instead.

The second kind of breathing valve is similar to the one-way check valve. It can only exhale outward, but not inhale inward. When the pressure in the system rises, the gas will be vented outward through the breathing valve to ensure the constant pressure of the system. For tanks storing toxic substances, there is no breathing valve or activated carbon filter and other treatment devices.
