This combination Desiccant Holder - Breather Valve puts two environmental protection components into one compact assembly.  For use in long-term storage containers. 

The desiccant holder mounts through a 2.015 in. (52 mm) diameter hole in the container wall (mounting hardware supplied). Holder will accommodate a two-unit desiccant bag*, enough to protect the contents of a two cubic foot container for at least six months, including two or three air shipments. Allows for easy desiccant replacement without opening your container by simply turning the cover of the TA476 by 1/4 turn.

A TA333-R Breather Valve keeps a container sealed during storage (except for seasonal temperature adjustment), but automatically relieves excessive pressure or vacuum build-up during air shipment. The standard tube length is 4.74 in., but other tube lengths and styles are available upon request.

The manual relief push button equalizes residual vacuum so the container can be opened easily.  Also available with a solid cover, as the TA476-SC series humidity indicator only, or with combination Humidity Indicator and Pressure Relief Valve (TA340-R or TA440-R) Contact AGM for these part numbers.
