Multi-purpose stand frames are suitable for many types of cleanroom equipment, including refrigerators, freezers, incubators, ovens, and vacuum chambers.
Desiccators: Features and Design overviewTerra's nitrogen-purged desiccator cabinets meet dry storage requirements as low as 1% relative humidity. Standardization simplifies component upgrade, retrofit and replacement. Terra's Smart controllers allow setpoint control and even multiplexed purging for the most critical humidity requirements.
How-To: Install Terra's ValuLine™ Smart® ControllerInstalling Terra's ValuLine™ Desiccator Smart® ControllerHow to upgrade your standard ValuLine ES Desiccator with an upgraded Smart® Humidity Module in only a few minutes. This Smart® add-on transforms your manual gas control desiccator into an automatic purge control system.
Terra's Automatic Relief/Bleed (RB) Valve opens up at 0.01 PSI, relieving overpressure that could damage desiccators; also works as a check valve to prevent influx of room air.
High Caliber Hardware
Seemingly small details like latches, ports, glides and hinges are often overlooked or ignored by other manufacturers, and later become the point of costly recurring maintenance or equipment failure. Terra’s products are made of long lasting, cleanroom compatible, top tier hardware. Individual components are carefully designed and rigorously tested to guarantee the highest quality, durability, and craftsmanship.
Reinforced Doors with Non-adhesive Gaskets
Stainless steel door frames extend desiccator life; one-piece fused gaskets are non-outgassing, will not creep or sag
Built-in Plenum Distributes Dry Gas to Each Chamber
Manual flowmeter or automated system controls nitrogen flow rates to maintain RH across entire cabinet. Built-in plenum distributes dry gas to each chamber.
Durable Embedded Static-Dissipative Layers
Terra's SDPVC features bonded dissipative layers that resist abrasion. SDPVC desiccators retain their surface resistivity of 106 - 108 ohms/square indefinitely (unlike spray-on coatings that can wear off after a few years), protecting your materials against ESD damage. Further, the control of static charges eliminates particle attractions, helping maintain clean surfaces.
Doors - The First Failure Point of a Desiccator Cabinet
Terra’s stainless steel door frames eliminate the need for internal reinforcements, which create particle surfaces and compromise cleaning. Unlike other doors with glue-on anti-bow pieces, Terra’s doors use no adhesives. This eliminates particle traps, sources of outgassing—and extends the strength and service life of the desiccator.
Desiccator Plenum Chamber For Uniform Gas Distribution
Multi-chamber desiccator cabinets include a perforated plenum to minimize back fill, ensure uniform gas distribution to all chambers and increase cabinet strength
Highest Standards For Desiccators and Electronic Components
Terra’s desiccator cabinets and RH control systems are designed and built to the highest standards required by defense and semiconductor industries for long-term reliability and protection against damage, injuries, and electrical hazards.

Nesting tote boxes feature smooth, easy-clean tapered sides; select lids, ticket holders and choice of Benstat® static-dissipative blue or Bentron™ conductive black polymer.
Ionizing modules are available for desiccator cabinets, glove boxes and other enclosures to ensure static-safe storage and processing (shown: ionizing unit on 2-chamber desiccator)
Dual Purge™ and NitroWatch™ Work Together to Fully Automate RH Control
Terra's Dual Purge™ and NitroWatch™ operate in tandem to precisely and automatically control the flow of nitrogen and maintain a preset humidity level (from ambient to 0% ± 1.5% RH), no matter how operating conditions may change.
Data Logging with 113,000 Readings at User Defined Intervals
Terra's Smart® IsoDry® Nitro-Watch™ logs RH, temp, door open/close, purge on/off, and sensor removal/attachment. The max data file size is roughly 4 MB or 113,000 readings. This is approximately 32 hours of data when logging at 1 second intervals, 2 weeks at 10 second intervals, 6 weeks at 30 second intervals, or 12 weeks at 1 minute intervals. When the system reaches the 4MB limit, data begins to wrap, overwriting oldest data with new.
Plug & Play Data Logging
Plug in a USB flash drive to your Smart® IsoDry® Nitro-Watch™ to transfer data in .CSV format. No software required.
