Ronan's Mold Level Gage uses a sealed radioactive
cesium (Cs-137 ) or cobalt (CO-60) source which is
safe if handled properly.
If your gage is equipped with the SA or GS series source
holder, you are required to obtain a specific license. Your
company's specific license will name a Radiation Safety
Officer (RSO) or Radiation Protection Officer (RPO). The
RSO for your company must be notified immediately upon
receipt of the gage. DO NOT proceed with unpacking,
storage, or installation without the RSO's authorization.
If your gage is equipped with the RLL series source holder,
you are not required to obtain a specific license. Your
company should assign a responsible party to maintain
records and supervise the installation and commission of the
source holder.
Ronan’s field service personnel are available for advice or
assistance. (859) 342-8500.
All equipment manufactured by Ronan is carefully
packaged to prevent shipping damage. Unpack the
equipment in a clean, dry area.

Immediately report any discrepancy or damage to Ronan,
the company’s RSO, and the carrier. File a claim with the
carrier.
If it is necessary to store this equipment before mounting,
the RSO or responsible party will assign a safe and secure
location with no personnel access.
