CONT

Changes in altitude, temperature, humidity and geographic location create a "vacuum lock" which can effectively seal a case shut. [The] integrated auto-pressure valve equalizes this atmospheric pressure difference. Using state-of-the art technology, the micro vent allows air to pass through while preventing water from entering.
