For added protection, the case features a weatherproof gasket seal and a manual pressure release valve. Hasps on each latch accept select optional padlocks.

Included with the case is a small, silent dehumidifier that can be renewed by simply plugging it into a wall outlet and waiting for the color indicator to turn from pink to blue.

The Ruggard Portable Dry Case helps protect your equipment, such as lenses, photographic and optical equipment, and mobile electronics from dirt, dust, and moisture. It's a portable, weather-sealed option where you can store valuables while on location.

The included Renewable Dehumidifier draws away excessive moisture from stored gear. It's a small, hand-sized unit that fits in most sealed cases and works without power. This dehumidifier is useful for storing gear in conditions such as tropical locales or rain forests.

The status window and color guide on the Renewable Dehumidifier show you when it's full of moisture, and when it's ready to use. The blue crystals indicate the dehumidifier is ready for use, pink crystals indicate it needs to be recharged by plugging into a standard wall outlet.

The hygrometer measures the water vapor inside the case and displays a range of relative humidity levels. It takes the guesswork out of knowing when to open the case to avoid prematurely exposing the internal air to external moisture.

As the relative humidity level decreases, the internal pressure of the case may increase and make the case hard to open. An air valve equalizes the inside pressure so the case can open normally.
