The CR1296t is a CO2 release cover. The holes in the cover are so small, that passive diffusion is negligible, but pressure, for example due to the formation of CO2, can not build up
Other characteristics of the covers:
- The sandwich cover its function relies on the vertical force applied by a clamping system such as CR1801h or CR1700
- Autoclavable and thus reusable many times
- The cover has a blue and green filter to prevent airborne contamination
- The silicon layer is made from very durable rubber, which is free of any animal product
