MODEL CP-100 and CP-200
The RADeCO Models CP-100 and CP-200 Radioiodine Samplers are special sampling cartridges specifically designed for
the evaluation of airborne concentrations of elemental radioiodine, organic radionuclides, and other radioiodine
compounds. They are composed of selected 5% TEDA treated charcoal packaged in a heavy aluminum case.
The Model CP-100 Radioiodine Sampler utilizes 40 to 50 mesh charcoal and is designed for very high collection efficiency
at high flow rates for long term sampling. The Model CP-200 Radioiodine Sampler uses 20 to 30 mesh charcoal and is
designed for use at low flow sampling operations.
Each batch of Model CP-100 and CP-200 cartridges is manufactured from pre-tested charcoal. After loading the material
into the cartridges, random sample cartridges are selected and subjected to stringent RADeCO radioiodine testing
procedures. From this test data, RADeCO develops and gives to each customer, a Certificate of Performance assuring the
user of the quality of the product.
Routinely, these cartridges are used in-line and downstream of a high efficiency filter which will remove radioactive
particulate which can interfere with the radioiodine measurement. Filter papers and combination pre-filter and cartridge
sample holders are available as accessories for the RADeCO air samplers.
CAUTION: Models CP-100 and CP-200 Radioiodine Samplers must not be used in personal respirators for breathing
protection.

Calibration Material
Methyl Iodine - This is the most of the organic iodides to collect for analysis. The collection efficiency for other
radionuclides will be higher.
Purge Definition
2 Hour Purge - After the methyl iodine is collected by the cartridge, air (at the sampling rate) is drawn through
the cartridge to strip out loosely held material.
7 Day Purge - Before cartridge is loaded with methyl iodine, air is drawn through the cartridge (at the sampling rate)
for seven days the collected media with moisture and other airborne containments which could interfere with iodine
absorption.
Storage Life - The CP-100 and CP-200 cartridges are packed in sleeves of 20 cartridges each. Each sleeve is of 10 mil
plastic with the ends heat-sealed. The shelf life should be indefinite if the pocket in which the cartridges are sealed
remains in-tact. Special individual cartridge packaging is available.
