Title	Safety Equipment Fails to Function Properly
Event Description	The RSO called to state that the Bromine Monitor at their facility failed to function properly. The shutter on the monitor failed to close, thus leaving it in an unsafe condition. The licensee taped a piece of metal (the same metal as the shutter) across the instrument to render it in a safe condition. The equipment was removed from service and no personnel received exposure from the event. The equipment is made by AEA Technology, Model number CUCD2, s/n 5738LY. The radionuclide is 10 microCuries of Cd-109 (cadium-109). A qualified technical has been dispatched to repair the Bromine Monitor.
