Just unscrew the red case from the black flange.

unscrew the blank cover in counterclockwise direction

you can put the desiccant tablets in to microwave oven for 2 mins to retry them

Pictures Please or video... I need cleaning also.

How the dessicant tablets are secuered inside ? I can see (thru the window) that one of them is inside some kind of (rubber ?) tube but other two are just glued to the circuit board ? How to mount them back after microwave cure ? Just in case ...

TNX.

you are correct, we use one double side paste to glue the desiccant tablets on the PCB board

attached one picture show the direction
