MC Dry Cabinets (1% RH) for Cost-Effective Storage of Electronic Components

The MC series is a cost-effective dry cabinet designed for ultra low humidity storage (1% RH) of electronic components and moisture sensitive devices (MSD).

It is ideal for applications with moderate door opening frequency, providing reliable long-term storage while optimizing cost efficiency.

Maintains ultra low humidity (1% RH) under moderate door opening conditions             (every 1–2 hours)                                                                                                             Compared to large-capacity DXU models, the MC series is optimized for cost efficiency and moderate usage conditions. Alternative to nitrogen cabinets with lower running costs.

  • Ideal for:                                      Long-term storage of electronic components                               PCB and MSD storage                                                                                                      Electronics manufacturing environments

Centralized Dry Storage for SMT Components

The McDry MC series offers a cost-effective solution for storing larger inventories of moisture-sensitive electronic components in SMT manufacturing environments.

  • Large 1,200 L capacity for centralized component and MSD storage
  • Stable 1% RH storage for applications with moderate door opening frequency
  • Cost-efficient dry storage for long-term inventory management

Typical SMT Applications for the MC Series

SMT manufacturers often need to store large quantities of moisture-sensitive components before they are required for production. The MC series is well suited to centralized dry storage with substantial capacity.

01 / STORAGE

Centralized Component Inventory

Consolidate larger inventories of moisture-sensitive components in a dedicated dry storage area.

02 / CAPACITY

Large-Volume Storage

Suitable for storing larger quantities of MSDs, PCBs and electronic assemblies within a controlled environment.

03 / WORKFLOW

Planned Component Retrieval

A practical choice for inventory storage where components are retrieved according to production schedules rather than continuously throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose the MC series instead of DXU?

The MC series is a good option when storage capacity and centralized inventory management are priorities. For workflows with frequent door opening, DXU may be more suitable.

Is the MC series suitable for storing large MSD inventories?

Yes. The MC series is intended for larger component inventories, including moisture-sensitive devices and PCBs. Storage arrangements depend on the selected cabinet configuration.

What should I consider when planning a central dry storage area?

Important factors include inventory volume, component dimensions, retrieval frequency, available space and required storage conditions.
