We recently looked at x-ray irradiators, they seem to run about $250,000-$275,000 with service agreements that cost an additional $1,500-$2,000 per month. Financing is possible putting the cost around $7,000 per month with service agreements for the first 5 years and then just the service agreement after that. We're currently paying about $9,000 a month for irradiation service from our supplier, but irradiating would mean we would need licensure as a manufacturer, which we do not currently have. So, for the moment we decided to sit pat and see how our irradiation needs change over time before making a decision. One irradiator we looked at was very self contained, the other required a water input of very precise specification as a cooling element.
