Product Details
Protecting valuable humidity-sensitive items, such as reagents or electronics, is easy and fully automatic with Secador® auto-desiccator cabinets. The kit includes a patented electronic desiccant regeneration module that recharges the desiccant every 20 minutes, achieving a low %RH level on start-up and consistently maintaining low %RH, particularly with frequent entry to the desiccator interior. The color-indicating silica gel allows for quick visual confirmation of desiccant status. Constructed of Durastar® co-polyester, these cabinets block 99% of UV light and are resistant to staining, crazing, and chemical attack. The amber color models reduce visible light penetration by over 50%, making them ideal for storing light-sensitive materials like reagents. The cabinet features a large door with an easy-to-view digital hygrometer that opens from right to left, maximizing access to the interior space while incorporating a patented seal design, tab latches, and security loops for a padlock or tamper-evident seals. Perforated shelves facilitate dry air circulation, and the compact dimensions of 34.1 W x 41.4 cm D (13.4 x 16.3") allow for space-saving stacking of up to 3 units high. A range of sizes, styles, and colors are available in 100, 120, or 230V (CE marked) models for global use. Replacement shelves can be ordered, and the 4.0 units can be converted from vertical to horizontal configuration by turning the unit and ordering the appropriate number of shelves.
