4. Impostazione
4.1 Disimballaggio
Carefully remove the dry cabinet from its packaging. Inspect the cabinet for any signs of damage during transit. Retain packaging materials for future transport or storage if needed.
4.2 Posizionamento
Place the dry cabinet in a location that is stable, dry, and away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, or any heat-emitting appliances. Ensure adequate air circulation around the unit.
Figure 3: Product dimensions for placement consideration. Height: 770mm (approx. 30.3 inches), Width: 380mm (approx. 15 inches), Depth: 390mm (approx. 15.35 inches).
4.3 Livellamento
The AD-100L model is equipped with adjustable feet. Rotate the feet at the bottom of the cabinet to ensure it is perfectly level, especially if the floor surface is uneven. This helps maintain proper door sealing and optimal operation.
4.4 Installazione dello scaffale
Insert the crystal shelves into the desired slots within the cabinet. The shelves are adjustable to accommodate items of various sizes. Place the wave sponge inserts on the shelves as needed to protect delicate items like lenses.

4.5 Operazione iniziale
Before storing any items, it is recommended to run the dry cabinet empty for more than 8 hours. This allows the internal humidity to stabilize and reach a lower level, preparing the cabinet for optimal performance.
5. Istruzioni per l'uso
5.1 Accensione e visualizzazione
Plug the power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet and connect it to the dry cabinet. The digital LED dual screen will illuminate, displaying the current internal temperature and relative humidity (RH%).
Figure 5: Digital control panel displaying temperature and humidity.
5.2 Impostazione dei livelli di umidità
Use the control buttons on the panel to set your desired relative humidity (RH%) level. The cabinet allows control within the range of 25% to 60% RH.
- Premere il pulsante "SET" per accedere alla modalità di impostazione.
- Use the "Up" or "Down" arrow buttons to adjust the target humidity.
- Press "SET" again to confirm your selection.
5.3 Controllo della luce a LED
The internal LED lights can be turned ON or OFF using the dedicated button on the control panel. Turning off the lights can help save energy, especially at night.
5.4 Suggerimenti operativi importanti
- It may take at least 3 hours for the cabinet to reach the set humidity point when storing a large quantity of items or items with high moisture content for the first time.
- The internal temperature of the dry cabinet is monitored but cannot be actively controlled by the unit.
- Always ensure the cabinet door is sealed tightly after opening to maintain optimal dehumidification. The magnetic door seal provides a secure closure.
- It is normal for the internal humidity level to increase after the door is opened, as ambient air enters. The longer the door remains open, the higher the humidity increase will be. The cabinet will resume dehumidifying to the set level once the door is closed.
6. Recommended Humidity Levels for Storage
The ideal humidity level for storage varies depending on the type of item. Refer to the table below for recommended relative humidity (RH%) levels:
