Description
Dwyer RMA-6-SSV Acrylic Desiccator Two Compartment w/ Flow Meter 16x16x16 SCFH
This is a two-compartment clear acrylic tabletop desiccator fitted with an integrated Dwyer Instruments RMA-6-SSV variable-area flow meter for controlled gas purging. The cabinet is constructed entirely of transparent acrylic, allowing full visibility of stored contents without opening the doors. Each of the two stacked compartments is sealed by a door with a perimeter rubber gasket and secured by a toggle clamp latch, providing an airtight closure suitable for low-humidity or inert-gas storage environments.

Applications
Acrylic desiccators like this are standard storage cabinets in laboratory, cleanroom, and semiconductor environments where moisture-sensitive components, samples, or materials must be kept in a controlled low-humidity atmosphere. The cabinet can be purged with dry nitrogen or clean dry air fed through the flow meter, displacing ambient moisture and maintaining a stable internal environment. Typical uses include storing hygroscopic chemicals, electronic components awaiting assembly, optical elements, thin-film samples, and biological specimens. The Dwyer RMA-6-SSV rotameter allows operators to set and monitor the purge gas flow rate precisely — the 0–20 SCFH scale is appropriate for maintaining a gentle positive-pressure purge in a cabinet of this size. Two-compartment designs allow different material types or access frequencies to be separated without disturbing the other chamber. These cabinets are common in semiconductor fab support areas, university research labs, and quality-control environments.
This Dwyer Instruments RMA-6-SSV two-compartment acrylic desiccator has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The clear acrylic panels are free of major cracks or crazing, and the toggle clamp latches and rubber door seals look intact. The integrated Dwyer RMA-6-SSV flow meter (0–20 SCFH Air) is present and shows no obvious damage. Normal light handling marks are visible on the exterior consistent with prior lab use. No desiccant media is included. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
