Installing Twist-Lock Desiccant

1. Remove the protective dust cap from the bottom

of the desiccant pack, if applicable.

2. Remove expiring desiccant (if present) from the

cable by grasping the textured section of the
cable connector in one hand and the desiccant in
the other. Twist in opposite directions to unlock
the desiccant from the cable.

3. Attach the new desiccant pack to the twist-lock

connector on the cable.

Using the Desiccant Refill Kit

1. Remove the black nylon vent cap from the top of

the desiccant.

2. Pour out and discard the used desiccant. Check

the glass wool in the bottom of the container and
replace if necessary.

The glass wool prevents the desiccant
beads from falling out the cable end of the
desiccant pack. If the wool glass does this
effectively, there is no need to replace it
when refilling the desiccant.

3. Fill the container with fresh desiccant. Replace

the vent cap. Reattach to cable if removed.

Desiccant Guidelines and Precautions

l

The soft red dust caps protect connectors and
shield new desiccant from moisture prior to use.

Do not remove the dust caps until you
deploy the system

. During installation, remove

caps to allow air to reach the cable vent.

l

Do not inhale the silica dust when pouring
desiccant from one container to another.

l

Indicating desiccant is blue when dry. It gradually
turns pink as it becomes saturated.
