Nov 08, 2005 Designed to dry hot, wet, sample gases prior to analysis, MDH(TM) Series combines heating element with Nafion® technology, which selectively removes only water from sample gases, leaving rest of gas sample unaffected. Dryers remove water directly from vapor phase, preventing loss of water-soluble gases through dissolution in condensate. Units can dry gases with as much as 30% water by volume and use built-in thermostat to prevent condensation throughout drying process.
