Introduction
The Super Systems Inc. (SSi) CAT-100 is an Atmospheric Carbon Potential Analyzer that
provides a measurement of Carbon Potential in a positive pressure atmosphere. This
measurement is determined by measuring specific properties of a steel wire coil that has been
inserted into an atmosphere with a carbon-bearing gas for a predefined amount of time. The
CAT-100 system is designed to provide accurate results in a cost-effective manner.

The concept behind the CAT-100 is similar to the concept behind the SSi Shim Port with Shim
Stock. The CAT-100 is designed to provide an on-site carbon measurement. More information
on this process can be found in the Testing Procedure section on page 8.
