Description/Abstract The humidity of a gas within a closed system is maintained at constant level by providing a saturated salt solution within a lower chamber in communication with an upper chamber conjointly defined by upper and lower container sections in sealing contact with each other to establish a closed container.^A partition wall separates the salt solution from the test region in the upper chamber.^A tube extending through the partition plate allows humidified gas to pass from the lower to the upper chamber.^A glass wool plug or membranous material within the tube prevents migration of salt into the test region.
