Desiccant cartridges are cartridges widely used for products and instruments that are sensitive to moisture and humid environmental conditions. These cartridges provide protection against moisture-related issues for a wide range of applications such as containers, cases, and electrical and optical devices.May 15, 2018
What is the purpose of desiccant?
Desiccants are commonly used to keep products dry and stable. Dry desiccants can absorb moisture from air either by physical adsorption or by chemical reaction, and thus reduce the humidity in the headspace of sealed containers.
How often should you change desiccant?
We recommend that a desiccant be replaced once every three years for open-cycle systems and once every two years for closed-cycle systems. A desiccant may degrade more quickly depending on the environment where it is used. Dew point temperatures offer a good indication for when to replace your desiccant.
