4 . 2.3 Sealing and Desiccating the Enclosure
The WS-PRO2 Enclosure is supplied with two desiccant packs. The desiccant
maintains a low humidity in the enclosure to minimize the chance of
condensation on the instrumentation. Desiccant should be changed when the
internal WS-PRO2 Enclosure humidity sensor measures 50% or higher. Install
the desiccant as shown in Figure 29. Keep unused desiccant tightly sealed in an
airtight container.
1. Take the desiccant packs out of the plastic bag. Slide the packs into the
desiccant holder inside the lid of the enclosure.
2. Be sure to close the enclosure hasp securely. A padlock may be used on
the latch for extra security.
