3.4 Sealing and Desiccating the Enclosure
The ET Enclosure is supplied with a desiccant pack. 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 ET Enclosure
humidity sensor measures 30% or higher. Install the desiccant as shown in
Figure 3.4-1. Keep unused desiccant tightly sealed in an airtight container.
1) Take the desiccant pack out of its sealed plastic bag. Place it under the
desiccant strap just before leaving the station.
2) Be sure to close the enclosure hasp securely. A padlock may be used on
the latch for extra security.
