These mobile storage carts transport components from one location to another while maintaining critical low-humidity and low-particle conditions.

A Controlled Environment Wherever It Goes!
The DesiCart™ is available in two versions. Each houses a hermetically sealed desiccator storage chamber, which maintains clean, dry storage conditions during parts transport. Desiccators feature opposing access doors for pass-through convenience, and every door is equipped with a LiftLatch™.

Quick connect/disconnect fittings (optional) enable you to purge the system with nitrogen while it is stationary. Reinforced door construction and gasketing provide air-tight seals that maintain a clean, dry storage environment while the DesiCart is in motion. The Automatic Relief/Bleed Valve (standard feature) relieves overpressures.

High-Density Polyethylene DesiCarts™ provide excellent chemical resistance and include an integral one-piece handle. Wrap-up rails make for safe transport of materials carried on top of the cart, and corners are rounded for easy cleaning. Each of these carts features four chambers and includes chrome-plated racks.

304 Stainless Steel DesiCarts™ feature a solid stainless steel top and a two-chamber desiccator. Chrome-plated wire racks mounted inside the desiccator allow easy adjustment of optional stainless steel shelving.

All models feature 5" (127 mm)-diameter polyurethane swivel casters for smooth quiet operation and Class 100 cleanroom-compatibility. Other stem casters are available.

Static-Dissipative PVC: ESD and Particle Control
The DesiCart™ is available in either acrylic or Terra Universal's transparent Static-Dissipative PVC, which features surface resistance of between 106 and 108 ohms/square. This durable material safely dissipates static charges that can damage sensitive parts and also eliminates static attraction of contaminants. It also resists a wide range of chemicals.

Installation: Cabinet doors may become misaligned during shipment. Installation should include cabinet alignment to ensure that door sensors and seals are functioning properly.
