Abstract
A luminaire includes an enclosure, an air valve, and a chamber. The enclosure includes a sealed cover and light beam emitting components. The air valve is air coupled between the enclosure and the chamber. The chamber includes a drying agent and has an opening with a membrane completely covering the opening. The membrane passes air while reducing the passage of water droplets in the air. The air valve blocks air passage between the enclosure and the chamber when closed. A method for testing to determine adequate sealing of an enclosure of a luminaire includes closing an air valve to seal the enclosure from outside air, activating a heat-generating component, determining whether an air pressure in the enclosure increases by more than a threshold value, and sending a signal indicating a result of the determination. The method includes deactivating the heat-generating component and opening the air valve.
