Rosahl M-1J1R Electric Micro-Dehumidifier

The M-1J1R by Rosahl is a compact flat-membrane dehumidifier module for volumes of up to 125 litres.

Operation Principle

Like all Rosahl dehumidifiers the M-1J1R is based on a solid-state polymer membrane. When supplied with a 3V DC voltage, moisture on one side is being decomposed into Hydrogen ions and Oxygen, the Hydrogen ions pass the membrane and recombine with air Oxygen to moisture again on the other side and get discharged.

Storage of 3D-Print Filament Spools

With an applicaple air volume of 125 liters the Rosahl M-1J1R membrane is suitable for smaller storage dryboxes around 20-30l for 4-6 spools. Pictures above show such a solution with the 3d-printed mounting parts.The STL files for these are available for download at Printables.com and can be printed on your own. With pre-dried filament spools (especially spools made of cardboard contain quite high moisture) a continous storage at approx. 15% rH and less is achievable. The diagram shows a real measurement of the M-1J1R in a 20l storage box.

Which Membrane Suits What Application?

The following table reflects our own applications with different membranes and usage scenarios in our climate zone with max. 65-70%RH and could serve as a guide for membrane selection.

(1) This is the specified applicable volume by the manufacturer. For 3D print filament storage at low humidity levels around 15%, we recommend to oversize the membrane at least by a factor of 5 or 6. Achievable end-humidity depends on various factors like box sealing, temperatur, outside humidity level. In regions with high air humidity it might be beneficial to oversize the membrane more.
(2) The Bambu Lab AMS comes with some manufacturing variations and can be less properly sealed as stated. Given this, also an M-1J1R or M-2J1R can give decent results but it is recommended to carefully check for potential leakages and proper/tight gasket sealing before chosing a membrane size. It might hence be beneficial to oversize the membrane more. If in doubt, contact us prior to selecting/ordering.

Power Supply

The Rosahl M-1J1R dehumidifer requires a 3V DC supply voltage and draws in continous operation i.e., when the moisture level in the volume stabilized to a low level, just around 1W power.
Due to the membrane being intrinsically hygroscopic, it absorbs humidity if no supply voltage is present. This moisture needs to be discharged on startup and leads to a significantly higher inrush-current that the regular operating current. During startup the supply voltage shall still not drop below 2V, otherwise moisture discharge is not possible or significantly delayed. Suitable current supplies are fold-back current limiting sources, which regulate the output current further down than pure constant current sources and hence maintain a certain output voltage. We provide suitable USB-C voltage regulator modules with fold-back current limiting, which can be used stand-alone or mounted into our 3D-print mounting frame/covers.
