The RAD20-1828-00 contains activated charcoal media that adsorbs hydrocarbon fuel vapors from the vent line, preventing vapor escape during thermal expansion and pressure equalization. The canister uses 1\/2-inch hose connections for inline installation and is constructed with an anodized aluminum body for corrosion resistance and durability in the engine bay or chassis environment. Safe for use with all fuel types including E85 and other alcohol blends. The RAD20-1828-00 is a passive device ,  no electrical connections or active control required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActivated charcoal media captures and adsorbs hydrocarbon fuel vapors from the vent line before atmospheric release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch hose barb connections for inline installation in fuel cell or fuel tank vent lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnodized aluminum body for corrosion resistance, heat tolerance, and long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassive operation ,  no electrical connections, no wiring, no active control required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafe for use with gasoline, ethanol blends (E85), methanol, and all common motorsport fuels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal installation ,  fits any fuel cell or tank with a compatible vent line configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRAD20-1828-00 is a Radium Engineering USA-made product\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRAD20-1828-00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRadium Engineering\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Vent Charcoal Canister\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2-Inch Hose Barb (Inlet and Outlet)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnodized Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedia Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eActivated Charcoal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperation Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePassive (No Electrical Connection)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGasoline, E85, Methanol, All Common Motorsport Fuels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUniversal ,  Competition Fuel Cells and Performance Fuel Tanks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer Location\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e850016183018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x RAD20-1828-00 Radium Engineering Fuel Vent Charcoal Canister\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware and installation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the RAD20-1828-00 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RAD20-1828-00 installs inline in the vent line of a competition fuel cell or performance fuel tank. It captures fuel vapors before they vent to atmosphere, absorbing hydrocarbons through an activated charcoal media bed inside the canister body. It is commonly required for track events and road racing regulations that prohibit open fuel cell vents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat hose size does the RAD20-1828-00 connect to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RAD20-1828-00 uses 1\/2-inch hose barb connections on both the inlet and outlet. Use 1\/2-inch ID fuel-compatible hose for proper fitment. The hose barb design provides a secure slip-fit connection that can be clamped with standard hose clamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the RAD20-1828-00 compatible with E85?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The RAD20-1828-00 is compatible with gasoline, E85, methanol, and other common motorsport fuel types. The anodized aluminum body and activated charcoal media are resistant to ethanol and alcohol fuel degradation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the RAD20-1828-00 require any wiring or electrical connections?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The RAD20-1828-00 is a fully passive device. It requires only inline hose connections in the fuel cell vent line. No wiring, sensors, solenoids, or active control is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know when the charcoal media in the RAD20-1828-00 needs replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe charcoal media has a finite service life that depends on vapor exposure frequency and volume. If fuel odors become noticeable from the vent or the canister shows signs of saturation (fuel weeping), the media should be inspected and replaced. Contact Radium Engineering for replacement media availability and service intervals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan the RAD20-1828-00 be mounted in any orientation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor optimal performance, mount the RAD20-1828-00 upright or at a slight angle to prevent activated charcoal from settling or blocking the hose barb connections. Avoid mounting completely inverted unless specifically approved by Radium Engineering for your application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the RAD20-1828-00 approved for SCCA, NASA, or other sanctioning body racing regulations?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RAD20-1828-00 is designed to meet the fuel cell vent vapor capture requirements common to many road racing sanctioning bodies. Confirm compliance with the specific technical regulations of your sanctioning body before use in competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is the RAD20-1828-00 manufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RAD20-1828-00 is made in the USA by Radium Engineering, a manufacturer specializing in high-performance and motorsport fuel system components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdentify the vent line on your fuel cell or fuel tank ,  typically a 1\/2-inch ID hose routed to atmosphere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut the vent line at a convenient inline location in the routing path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect the inlet hose barb of the RAD20-1828-00 to the fuel cell or tank side of the vent line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect the outlet hose barb to the atmosphere side of the vent line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure both connections with hose clamps rated for fuel use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount the RAD20-1828-00 body to the chassis using the included mounting hardware in an upright or slightly angled orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect all connections for leaks after the first refueling and at regular service intervals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This product can expose you to chemicals including lead and phthalates, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
