Gore's innovative battery insulation material helps prevent thermal runaway in BESS modules, outperforming thicker alternatives and supporting higher energy density. Easy to install and non-particulating, it resists compression, ensuring consistent thermal protection throughout the battery's lifetime. (NOTE: Not a commercially available product. Contact Gore for sample information.)

NEMA Ratings and What They Mean

Technical Information

A critical aspect of vent selection begins with defining the level of protection your application, device or housing requires.

IP ratings cannot be “converted” to NEMA ratings, since NEMA requires additional testing not included in IP. However, there are minimum NEMA ratings that will meet or exceed a given IP code.

Ingress Protection, IP, is an internationally accepted standard for indicating how well an electrical enclosure protects electronic equipment, devices, or components against solid objects and liquids.

Reliability Testing of GORE<sup>®</sup> Protective Vents in Telecommunication Enclosures

When telecommunication equipment fails prematurely due to conditions of the environment in which it is installed, it leads to network downtime, increased costs and maintenance, and reduced brand loyalty. Gore application engineers developed new enclosure reliability tests that replicate real-world environmental challenges.
