MSD control system

24 November 2010 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

Through its advanced individual cell design, Inovaxe’s INOCART-MSD cabinet individually manages multiple component reel sizes and waffle trays in a low relative humidity safe storage condition.

Included with each unit is the company’s MSD (moisture sensitive device) tracking and timing software solution.

Available in two configurations – 24 individual cells and 48 individual cells – INOCART-MSD provides users with cells that disengage from the centralised ‘hive’ when the door is opened, allowing environmental control to be maintained in all of the other cells. This design feature eliminates factory ambient exposure to all other components in the safe storage condition. The system uses multiple forced convection desiccant drying modules that are capable of reaching very low humidity levels. The multiple drying modules allow for the automatic regeneration (drying) of the desiccant. The low relative humidity levels attained allow the system to effectively manage MSD levels of 2, 2a, 3, 4, 5 and 5a. The digital display shows temperature and relative humidity percentage within the material handling system.

The MSD tracking software triggers when a package is moved from ‘safe storage’ to ‘factory ambient’ conditions and starts measuring remaining floor life in accordance with its specific MSD level per J-STD-033A. Additional benefits include an on-screen alarm that indicates when a user-defined percentage of floor life is reached. Conversely the tracking software monitors the regeneration of component floor life when moved from factory ambient condition to safe storage.
