Description

Sound-n-Dry® is a dry-aid kit used to remove moisture from hearing aids. Sound-n-Dry provides an efficient and very economical way to maintain hearing aids and save on expensive repairs from moisture damage. Moisture builds up during normal wearing conditions and can reduce the performance of hearing aids by damaging the delicate circuitry. It is simple to use and does not require a power source. This unit is also suitable for cochlear implant speech processors.

Sound-n-Dry® contains a desiccant that slowly draws out the moisture. The desiccant is non-toxic and safe to use. There is a slow colour change as the desiccant adsorbs moisture, changing from ‘honey’ then ‘light green’ through to colourless. When this happens it is time to replace or regenerate the desiccant. This can be done by placing the desiccant in a microwave or domestic oven, full instructions are enclosed with the unit. The desiccant used in Sound-n-Dry® is colour indicating and cobalt free and has a very high adsorption capacity. The adsorption capacity refers to how much moisture the desiccant can hold. The unit is simple and economical to use and does not require power to operate. The desiccant is enclosed in a woven sachet that allows moisture to pass through, do not open the sachet.

After three to four heating cycles the desiccant loses its capacity to efficiently draw out the moisture. When this happens it’s time to replace the desiccant for best performance of the unit.
