Overview

KEEPING YOUR EQUIPMENT DRY

DUNEDRY can only dehumidify small and confined spaces.
Place the DUNEDRY in the equipment bag/case after your observation night or when storing your instruments. When placing it in the bag or suitcase, please make sure to securely fix the DUNEDRY moisture absorber to allow minimal movement. This effectively prevents uncontrolled movements and potential surface damage to the equipment.
DUNEDRY will absorb moisture and keep the humidity in your bag/case low. This prevents damage from rust or mold.
The capacity to absorb moisture varies with humidity and temperature.

COLOR INDICATOR

The indicator on the protective frame of the DUNEDRY can display two colors:
- White -> dry, ready for use
- Blue -> fully saturated, please renew
The color indicator will slowly turn blue while moisture is absorbed. This can take up to 1 month, depending on your usage.
If the indicator is blue, renew DUNEDRY before usage.
The indicator is based on a chemical reaction inside the Dunedry. Drying is only recommended when the indicator is completely blue. If isolated blue dots appear on the indicator, drying is not yet necessary.
In order not to damage the nanoporous material by premature drying, it is important to dry the stone only after a certain moisture saturation. To be sure of this, you can weigh the Dunedry when dry, e.g. after purchase (without cover).

After use, weigh it again. If it now weighs at least 20% more than its original dry weight, you can dry it. Otherwise, it will continue to absorb moisture and should be used without drying.

RENEWING THE DUNE DRY

Remove DUNEDRY from the protective frame.
Place DUNEDRY in the microwave or oven:
- 2a. Microwave: 9 minutes at defrost mode (200W – 300W).
  IMPORTANT:
- Do not exceed this duration and wattage!
- Do not cover the DUNEDRY!
- Do not leave it unattended!
- 2b. Oven: 50 minutes at 150°C (300°F)
CAUTION! HOT! Allow DUNEDRY to cool down before returning it to the protective frame.
The indicator will slowly turn from Blue to White within 4 hours
