8 Dismounting
8.1 Dismounting steps
As soon as a radiation-based measuring system is no longer re-
quired, the radiation must be switched off on the source holder.
The source holder must be dismounted by following all relevant regu-
lations and stored in a lockable room without through traffic.
Inform the responsible authorities of this measure.
The access area to this storage room must be measured (µSv/h) and
marked. The theft protection belongs to the responsibility of the radia-
tion safety officer.
Care must be taken that the source in the source container is not
scrapped together with the system.
Arrange as soon as possible a return shipment.
Caution:
Dismounting must only be carried out by authorized, qualified person-
nel monitored for radiation exposure according to local legislation
or the handling permit. Take note of the specifications of the existing
handling permit.
All local conditions must be taken into account.
All work must be carried out in the shortest possible time and at the
largest possible distance (shielding). Also, the endangering of other
persons must be avoided through suitable measures (e.g. safety
fence, etc.).
The source container may only be dismounted when the radiation is
switched off. Make sure that the switch position OFF is secured by a
lock.
Note chapters "Mounting" and "Setup" for dismounting and carry out
the described steps in reverse order.
