Introduction 

 

This manual is intended to be a supplement to 

Doc. #1800-

40: Desiccators  and RH Controllers

  that  outlines  the 

setup and operating instructions that are specific to  the 

IsoDry™ System and its components. 

 

The defining feature of this system is the IsoDry™ Gas 

Dilution Module.  The Adjust-A-Shelf cabinet, Dual Purge, 

and NitroWatch are slightly modified to integrate with the 

Gas Dilution Module, but are for the most part identical to 

the standard versions described in Doc. #1800-40. 

 

The IsoDry™ RH Control System is only compatible with 

Adjust-A-Shelf desiccators that carry the IsoDry™ moniker.   

 

IsoDry™ System Compatibility 

 Single Column IsoDry™ Adjust-A-Shelf™  
Double Column IsoDry™ Adjust-A-Shelf™ 

 

 

 

 

 

This manual focuses on specific setup and operating instructions for the IsoDry™ RH Control System. 

For installation instructions and general specifications for the Adjust-A-Shelf™ Cabinet, Dual Purge, or 

NitroWatch, refer to
