NUCON NUCELL®TYPE II ADSORBER TRAY
(United States Patent 4,292,059)


The NUCON NUCELL® carbon adsorber is designed for high efficiency and leak proof applications. The adsorber conforms to the ASME AG-1 & N509, AACC Standard CS-8T, and IES-RP-CC-008-84. These documents are referenced in USNRC Regulatory Guides of various vintage.

The NUCELL® Adsorber is a unique design with an inner cage of perforated stainless steel surrounded on 5 sides by at least 2 inches of carbon. The outer cage has perforated stainless steel on 4 sides with a solid fill cover plate. This design allows flow from 4, rather than 2 faces and the loading of significantly more carbon in the same standard envelope than other current designs. The additional carbon provides higher residence time and a lower pressure drop at a given flow rate than the common 2 bed design. solid spacer assemblies and all welded construction, except the fill cover plate, ensure strict dimensional adherence to applicable standards. The back plate is riveted on. The 2 inches of carbon between this back plate and the solid back plate of the inner cage eliminates problems from gas flow leakage through the pop rivets since all gas flow paths are through a least 2 inches of carbon. Solid, integral glide angles are provided on all surfaces to protect the cell during installation or removal.

Each NUCELL®Adsorber Tray is filled to maximum packing density with qualified radioiodine removal adsorbent (see NUCON Bulletin 11B4). The full rear opening permits packing the cell without voids.


Typically, dimensions are to ASME AG-1 & N509 and older documents such as AACC CS-8T & IES-RP-CC-008-84. (However, trays are manufactured to dimensions specified by the client.)
Each NUCELL®Adsorber Tray is halide leak and pressure drop tested. The maximum allowable halide leakage is < 0.01%.

Each NUCELL®Adsorber Tray is marked with all required data and sealed in polyethylene to prevent contamination during storage.


Standard packing/shipment cartons confirm to ASME AG-1 & ANSI N45.2.2.
NUCON is fully licensed by the US NRC for radioiodine testing and offers in-house capability to provide all testing listed in U.S.NRC Regulatory Guide 1.52 (all revisions) as well as related ASTM, ANSI and RDT Standards
