2.9.2 Sealing and Desiccating the Enclosure
The ET Enclosure is supplied with two desiccant packs. 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 50% or higher. Install the
desiccant as shown in Figure 2.9-3. Keep unused desiccant tightly sealed in an
airtight container.
Putting desiccant into the station should be the very last thing
that is done after all other weather station installation steps have
been completed.
NOTE
1) Take the desiccant packs out of the plastic bag. Strap the packs into the
desiccant holder inside the lid of the enclosure using the two Velcro
straps.
