Handling the Source

Only persons specifically trained in radiological safety and specifically authorized

by their controlling, regulatory agency may handle, install, or service the radiation

source, the radiation source containment, or the radiation source shielding.

Nuclear sources for the sensors are shipped to the site in a separate container which

is clearly marked with the International Radioactive Hazardous Materials shipping

label and marking statement. Refer to Figure 2-2 for a description of the labeling

and markings.

Upon receipt, the shipping container is to be placed in secure storage by an

authorized person, who is on–site and responsible for radiological safety.

The nuclear source is to remain unopened and in secure storage until a trained and

authorized person removes it for installation into the sensor.
