DESICCANT ASSEMBLY FOR HUMIDITY CONTROL WITHIN A SENSOR HOUSING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18153209 titled 'DESICCANT ASSEMBLY FOR HUMIDITY CONTROL WITHIN A SENSOR HOUSING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a desiccant assembly used in a sensor housing.
- The desiccant assembly includes a desiccant chamber that holds a desiccant element.
- A transfer window is positioned between the desiccant chamber and a sensor chamber in the housing.
- A permeable membrane covers the transfer window, allowing water vapor to transfer from the sensor chamber to the desiccant chamber.
- The purpose of the desiccant assembly is to remove moisture from the sensor chamber, ensuring accurate sensor readings.
- This innovation helps to maintain the performance and reliability of sensors in various applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
In some implementations, a desiccant assembly within a sensor housing may include a desiccant chamber configured to hold a desiccant element; a transfer window positioned between the desiccant chamber and a sensor chamber of the sensor housing; and a permeable membrane covering the transfer window and configured to allow water vapor to transfer from the sensor chamber to the desiccant chamber.
