Same 220 lb cabinet as the UX 1500 PRO S, with a backlit salt wall built into the interior for display. DRY AGER positions the salt wall as a merchandising feature; humidity is still held by the HumiControl system at a 40-90 % set-point. Offered in stainless steel, black or a custom colour, all with about a six-week lead time.

Range the research literature reports for dry aging beefthis cabinet, per its maker

Temperature: maker: electronically controlled 32 °F to 86 °F (0 °C to +30 °C).
Humidity: maker: HumiControl electronic humidity controller in 0.1 % increments from 40 % to 90 %, no external water supply or drain needed.
Classed here as: Active (holds a set-point you choose), 40–90% RH.

Active means the cabinet adds or removes moisture to hold a level you set; fixed means a humidifier holds one level the maker chose; a salt block or water tray is passive. Why the difference matters

Where it can go

27.56 W × 29.21 D × 64.96 H in. Maker says it can stand alone or be integrated into a wall or cabinetry; integration needs ventilation shafts at least the unit's width and 1.97 in deep, and 1.97 in behind the back (UX 1500 PRO S spec sheet, for the same cabinet). Not described as front-venting.

What the extra money buys: Against the DRY AGER UX 750 PRO S, the extra ~$8,000 buys 176 lb more meat capacity. See the DRY AGER UX 750 PRO S.
