Instruction Sheet
Desiccant Refill Kit
Part number 0029140
Description
The Desiccant Refill Kit contains 55 grams of indicating
desiccant to refill the Large Desiccant, Extra Large
Desiccant, and Outboard Desiccant packs. It also
contains replacement glass wool.
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.

your instrument.
