Radium Large Fuel Vent Charcoal Canister Universal
Application: Universal - EFI and carburetted fuel tank vent systems, incl. Radium fuel cell surge tanks
Part Type: Fuel vent charcoal canister (standard size)
Part Number: 20-1828-00, 20-1828-08, 20-1828-12
Radium fuel vent charcoal canisters filter fuel vapour odours from the fuel tank vent system on both EFI and carburetted vehicles. In Radium testing, a combustible gas detector read above 10,000 ppm at the vent without a canister and under 50 ppm with one fitted, while a dry break dump can flow test showed a negligible pressure drop.
The standard-size 20-1828 canister holds about five times more activated carbon than the compact version, so it needs less frequent servicing. Vibratory-packed activated carbon sits inside a 150 micron strainer and anodised aluminium baffle so no loose carbon can escape, and the canister can be recharged with a service kit.
