What is a pressure compensation element?

In an enclosure, air may create a vacuum when the enclosure cools down, which could suck in water through the vacuum which compromises the ingress protection of the enclosure. It is necessary to have essential pressure compensation elements in place to ensure that variations in temperature are monitored and compensated for, to ensure that the IP protection is secure and performs at its best.
