Solid-State Micro Dehumidifiers and Humidity Controllers for Enclosures and Cabinets

Advanced maintenance-free humidity control for OEM, industrial, and commercial applications

Electric Micro-Dehumidifier for Enclosures

Where maintenance-free drying is an important factor

Maintenance-Free Humidity Control for Enclosures and Equipment

Controlling humidity inside enclosures and equipment is essential to protect both sensitive devices and valuable items. From electronics and optical systems to musical instruments, museum displays and stored materials, unmanaged moisture can lead to condensation, corrosion, distortion or long-term degradation.

Traditional approaches often add complexity, require ongoing maintenance, or struggle to maintain stable conditions over time.

We take a different approach: maintenance-free humidity control engineered specifically for enclosed spaces. This website provides clear, practical guidance on stabilising internal conditions, preventing condensation, and selecting the right solution using solid-state electric micro dehumidifiers and long-life passive humidity buffers.

Whether you are designing new OEM equipment or protecting valuable contents, you will find proven methods, reliable technologies and straightforward selection tools that deliver consistent performance without ongoing servicing.

Our Solution: Rosahl Electric Micro Dehumidifiers

Rosahl Micro DehumidifiersOur solid-state Rosahl micro dehumidifiers operate from -20° C to +50° C and actively remove moisture from small sealed or semi-sealed enclosures from 250ml up to 8m³ without using compressors, refrigerants or replaceable desiccants.

Unlike heater-based drying or silica gel systems, membrane dehumidifiers are designed for long-term operation in closed cabinets where moisture must be actively controlled rather than periodically absorbed. They work continuously and do not need replacing.

Rosahl solid state membrane dehumidifiers are designed and manufactured in Japan by the Mitsubishi Electric Corporation.

Benefits of Rosahl Micro Dehumidifiers

Equipment failure due to moisture has major cost implications for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), machine builders and end-users, but it is simple to avoid.

Designed for industrial and commercial applications, Rosahl membranes offer a long-term solution to humidity control for enclosures. Rosahl products consume very little energy compared to other types of humidification. This means they will run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, continuously extracting moisture from an enclosed area without incurring major energy costs.

How Rosahl Micro Dehumidifiers Work

Why Conventional Solutions Do Not Always Solve the Problem

Rosahl uses a specialised ionic membrane like that found in fuel cells, chemical engineering, water improvement and similar industrial processes. It works as an ionic pump to move humidity into or out of a sealed enclosure.

  1. Electrolysis – When a 3 Volt D.C. charge is applied to the solid-state membrane, the moisture dissociates into hydrogen ions (H+) and oxygen.
  2. Ionic membrane action – The hydrogen ions (not hydrogen gas) migrate through the membrane to be discharged outside the enclosure where they react with oxygen in the air to form water vapour.
  3. Enclosure is dehumidified – With zero air exchange, the process removes the moisture in the enclosure to the required level.

Which Model of Rosahl is Right for my Application?

For different enclosure sizes, we recommend different models of Rosahl. If the initial drying time is not critical, or the enclosure remains closed for most time, or you have a lower starting humidity, it may be possible to use a smaller membrane.

It is also important to consider the volume of air inside the enclosure rather than the external dimension. For example, if your enclosure is 50% full by volume of non-porous material, then the space volume for dehumidifying is smaller.

Finally, try and design your application to ensure you are dehumidifying the smallest volume possible.

To help you choose, we have produced a selection chart showing membranes by volume and target humidity.

Humidity Controllers

Uniquely the Rosahl solid-state membrane can operate as an enclosure dehumidifier or as a humidifier. By using two membranes and a Rositrol-RH2 Series hygrostat a balanced humidity may be set to allow accurate control to your chosen humidity.

The hygrostat automatically keeps your enclosure at the humidity level you set. It constantly monitors the moisture in the enclosure and switches your membranes to humidify or dehumidify whenever adjustments are needed. Set your preferred humidity level (set-point) on the App and the system takes care of the rest, helping protect what you value.

Drykeeper

Drykeeper Passive Dehumidifiers

Drykeeper is a passive, long-life humidity control solution for sealed and unventilated enclosures.

Drykeeper uses a maintenance-free polymer absorber with a typical service life of up to 10 years. The sheet buffers internal humidity by absorbing water vapour when relative humidity is high and releasing it when conditions dry, helping to stabilise enclosure humidity in the 50–60% RH range.

By reducing the absolute humidity in the enclosure, Drykeeper lowers the dew point, preventing condensation on internal surfaces even as temperatures fall.
