SPI-Dry Desiccator Cabinets
Keep your important samples safe and dry in an SPI desiccator box.
The desiccating cabinets have all been designed for keeping an
already dry sample dry and none have been designed for drying a wet sample.
The desiccating cabinets operate with a desiccating material which
attracts any low levels of moisture that have leaked into the cabinet or
perhaps has been admitted by intermittent opening and closing of the cabinet door.
Once the moisture absorbing ability of the desiccant has been used up, it has to be
either replaced or regenerated. If "wet" samples were put into one of these
cabinets, the desiccant's ability to dry would be quickly overwhelmed with
the high level of moisture present, therefore this would not be a practical
way to dry a wet sample.
Another alternative to a desiccant is the SPI-Dry™ Basic Desiccating
Canisters which has greater capacity than the capsules.
A note of caution:
Only the Space Saver™ Vacuum Desiccators and the
SPI-Dry™ Inert Atmosphere Sample Preserver Capsule
have been designed for operation under vacuum. The other desiccator products have been designed for
use at atmospheric pressure and it would present quite a safety danger if one tried to operate one
of them under vacuum.
