| Indicating
Desiccators |
| Indicating Desiccators are small
refillable tubular desiccators designed primarily for the
absorption of moisture in small containers. Each type of
Indicating Desiccator (DA01-DA04) incorporates a
Humidity Indicator card. This indicator monitors the
Relative Humidity (RH) of the container air as well as the
condition of the desiccant itself. |

Different
Desiccators for you unique dew-point and temperature
conditions
The DA01 and DA03 Desiccators contain about 0.25 of a unit
(or 6 grams) of desiccant while the DA02 and DA04 assemblies
contain about 0.6 units (or 14 grams).
Silica Gel is typically used in desiccators, however, if
extremely low dew points must be maintained, or if high
operation temperatures are to encountered, molecular sieve may
be desirable. Any available desiccant or indicator card may
be used with any desiccator All desiccators can be modified to
"breathe" by drilling a small hole through the
viewing window. PLease contact us for recommendations.
Ease
of use, combined with ease of ordering, makes Indicating
Desiccators "user friendly"
DA01 and DA02 Desiccators are supplied with all attaching
hardware for mounting. DA03 and DA04 Desiccators come with an
O-Ring for installation in a threaded boss. Each unit is
refillable by unscrewing and removing the end cap.
Identifying
the Desiccator that will fit your needs is easy. The type of
desiccant as well as the type of indicator card desired is
specified by the designating part number suffixes.
