Andrew debuts the Disposable Outdoor Dehydrator

Andrew's Disposable Outdoor Dehydrator is a fully automatic indoor/outdoor dehydrator for pressurizing low volume cellular, terrestrial microwave, and MMDS/LMDS systems.


The Disposable Outdoor Dehydrator unit uses automatic pressure sensing to activate and deactivate the compressor.

The dehydrator functions indoors or outdoors alongside pole-mounted radio and antenna systems. It is suitable for pressurizing flexible jumpers and short, high frequency waveguide runs between pole- mounted radios and antennas in low volume transmission systems from 0.01 to 113 liters (0.01 to 4 cubic feet).

The low maintenance Disposable Outdoor Dehydrator has a sealed compressor and desiccant enclosures.

The Disposable Outdoor Dehydrator unit uses automatic pressure sensing to activate and deactivate the compressor, operating only when it needs to for maintaining pressure in the transmission line. The compressor draws less than 3.5 watts in operation and no power when idle.

The unit is currently available in voltages of 115, 230, and 24Vdc (volts direct current). The unit's operating range is approximately 0.3 to 0.5 psi (pounds per square inch).
