DryWave WDH3 Freestanding Waveguide Dehydrator

The DryWave WDH3

Introducing the Next Generation Waveguide Dehydrator

Drywave WDH3 5U Rackmount Waveguide Dehydrator

Built for the demands of modern RF infrastructure — deeper dewpoints, smarter monitoring, and greater installation flexibility than ever before.

Moisture is the silent killer of RF infrastructure.

Moisture infiltration in waveguide and transmission line systems doesn’t announce itself. It shows up as unexplained return loss, intermittent arcing, connector oxidation, and systems that degrade faster than they should.

The DryWave WDH3 was engineered to eliminate that risk — quietly, reliably, and continuously — with a platform built for the way modern RF systems are deployed.

  • Maintenance-free membrane drying technology
  • Dual filtration — particulate and coalescing filters
  • Industrial oil-less rocking piston compressor
  • Onboard storage reservoir for consistent output pressure

WHAT’S NEW IN THE WDH3

Everything you needed. Nothing you didn't.

Five key upgrades that make the WDH3 the most capable waveguide dehydrator TSI Solutions has ever built
Feature Description
❄️  Aftercooling Circuit Integrated aftercooling drives dewpoint performance exceeding -40°F — well beyond conventional membrane dehydrators. Critical protection for high-value waveguide infrastructure.
📊  Smart Digital Gauges Dual smart digital pressure gauges with color-coded local indication provide accurate, at-a-glance status. Built-in analog output (0–10V, 4–20mA, or 1–5V) for integration with your monitoring system.
📦  Two Form Factors 5U rack mount for equipment rooms and telecom shelters. Freestanding (FS) for tower base stations and field deployments. Same proven internals — packaged for your installation.
🎯  Precision Regulator Option The Precision series features a Fairchild Model 10 regulator with 1/8″ water column sensitivity and < 0.1 PSI hysteresis. Designed for sensitive or fragile waveguide loads where pressure stability matters most.
📡  Ethernet Remote Monitoring Optional ERM module adds a Wago CC100 PLC with SNMP and REST API. Monitor pressure, alarms, and compressor runtime from your NMS or BMS — no site visit required.

Find the Right Configuration

The WDH3 is available in 8 configurations — two form factors, standard or precision regulator, with optional Ethernet remote monitoring. Here’s a quick comparison to help you choose.

Standard Precision ERM Add-on

WHY TSI SOLUTIONS

Built on decades of waveguide expertise.

TSI Solutions has been protecting waveguide and transmission line systems since the introduction of the WDH series. The WDH3 isn’t a departure from what made our products trusted — it’s the next chapter.

  • Membrane drying technology — no desiccant, no regular replacement, no maintenance cycles

  • Dual filtration protects your waveguide from both particulate and oil aerosol contamination

  • Industrial compressor rated for continuous 24/7 duty in demanding RF environments

  • Onboard reservoir maintains stable output pressure even during compressor off-cycles

  • Adjustable output pressure — safe for even the most fragile waveguide components

When your transmission line needs to stay dry, we’re the team that keeps it that way.
