Abstract
A refrigerated drying module includes a storage cabinet for storing moisture sensitive devices, an air flow loop configured to circulate air into and out of the storage cabinet and a refrigerant loop configured to remove moisture from the air circulated through the air flow loop. The refrigerated drying module is configured to remove moisture from air drawn from the storage cabinet and collect the removed moisture as ice formed on the surface of an evaporator coil included in the refrigerant loop.
