CAUTION.
Never open the Electronics Housing inside a corrosive
atmosphere. Severe damage to the PCBs can occur. Damage may not
appear right away, but will shorten the lifespan of all internal components.
4-2 Desiccant
Desiccant is used to dehumidify the electronics housing interior. The fac-
tory-supplied desiccant lasts a year. Remember that desiccant rapidly ab-
sorbs moisture from ambient room air.
Used desiccant bags may be dried at 250° for 14 hours. As a minimum, re-
place the desiccant bags (
Table 4-16, item 08
) whenever the electronics
housing is opened, or you are preparing to deploy or store the ADFM for an
extended time.
CAUTION.
Do not open the desiccant bag. Contact with the silica gel can
cause nose, throat, and skin irritation.
NOTE.
Desiccant bags are shipped in an airtight aluminum bag to ensure
maximum effectiveness. There is a moisture indicator inside the bag. If
the moisture indicator is pink, do not use the desiccant bag until it has
been dried. MGD recommends replacing the desiccant bag just before the
deployment.
