Summary
- ISO Rating: ISO 6, ISO 7, ISO 8
- Humiccator provides a humidity-regulating, economical, contamination-free way to store sensitive materials
- Humiccator system combines Humex and Dual Purge modules to allow humidification with nitrogen gas purge
- Dual Purge system conserves nitrogen gas and maintains constant positive pressure to block contamination inflow
- Humex operates in tandem with Dual Purge to achieve precise humidification and %RH control
- How Humex Works:
- The Humex™ 2 Humidifier provides inline humidification of nitrogen or other process gas being fed into the desiccator cabinet.
- During operation, a 20W resistance heater inside the Humex 2 vaporizes incoming water fed into a stainless steel chamber. Process gas, which enters the Humex 2 through separate 0.25"-diameter flexible tubing, is humidified with steam as it passes through this chamber on its way to the cabinet.
- The Humex 2 humidity sensor, installed inside the cabinet, monitors the relative humidity (RH) level. As soon as the %RH falls below a user-selected threshold, a relay inside the Humex activates the heater and a solenoid that turns on the water flow. When the %RH set-point is attained, the Humex turns off heater and water flow.
- Operation with the Dual Purge:
- For optimal efficiency—and to conserve nitrogen— the Humex operates with Terra’s Dual Purge Variable Purge Controller.
- In this configuration, the Humex issues a signal to the Dual Purge via a 4-connector low-voltage cable to initiate high flow (bypassing the Dual Purge flowmeter) whenever the humidity falls below the set-point. This high flow of process gas quickly humidifies the enclosure.
- When the set-point is attained, the Humex deactivates the high flow (as well as the Humex humidification system) to conserve on nitrogen. In this low-flow purge, the flow rate is restricted by the Dual Purge flowmeter.
IsoDry® Humiccator Cabinets
IsoDry® Desiccator Cabinet by Terra Universal- IsoDry® Desiccator Cabinet Airflow Visualization with Dry Ice
IsoDry® desiccator cabinets are the latest innovation in desiccators from Terra Universal; patented gas dilution fan modules achieve high RH uniformity and rapi IsoDry® Desiccator Cabinet by Terra Universal IsoDry® desiccator cabinets are the latest innovation in desiccators from Terra Universal. Many conventional desiccators depend on unassisted gas displacement. This mode of operation can significantly inhibit RH control, drive up operating costs, and increase the risk of damaged stored materials. The driving concept behind IsoDry is that unassisted gas displacement is significantly slower without a substantial physical force to actively mix nitrogen gas through the entire cabinet.

Features and Benefits
Smart Performance for Big Savings
IsoDry's forced dilution system drastically improves moisture removal to quickly and efficiently attain low RH set-points. At 10% RH setpoint, IsoDry cuts recovery time and Nitrogen consumption by 80% compared with an unassisted system.
Stainless Steel Racks for Adjustable Shelf Storage Desiccators
Unlike common chrome-plated hardware, durable electropolished stainless steel racks for adjustable shelf storage desiccators help maintain a contamination-free storage environment. They resist corrosion and chipping/scratching from the sliding removable shelves.
Automatic Relief/Bleed Valve
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.
IsoDry Gas Dilution Module
IsoDry Gas Dilution Module enhances the relative humidity uniformity throughout the desiccator cabinet.
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
Gas Dilution System Ensures Uniform Humidity
IsoDry Gas Dilution Module enhances relative humidity uniformity throughout the desiccator cabinet and speeds up moisture removal after doors are closed.
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.
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.
