Title	Agreement State Report - Malfunctioning Radiography Camera
Event Description	The State provided the following information via facsimile: This event involved a crank cable for a Source Production & Equipment Company radiographic exposure device (model SPEC 150, serial number 876; with sealed source model SPEC G-60, serial number ML0608). The activity contained in the radiographic exposure device at the time of the incident was 2.66 terabecquerels (72 Ci). A crimped fitting on the crank cable housing came loose when a radiographer was moving the radiographic exposure device. The source was in the shielded position at all times when it was being moved. No source disconnect occurred. The cause of this incident is not known since the equipment had been functioning until this incident. The licensee believes it to be a manufacturing problem. When the incident occurred, radiographic operations were immediately stopped. And the radiography crew (radiographer, radiographer's assistant, and Radiation Safety Officer) returned to the licensee's Utah facilities. The control cable was tagged out of operation until a new housing could be obtained from the manufacturer. The Utah Division of Radiation Control was notified by the licensee in a letter dated March 23, 2006 (received on March 29, 2006). The licensee notified the manufacturer and the malfunctioning equipment was returned. It was immediately replaced with a new cable housing. Event Location: Structural Steel & Plate Fabrication, 555 N. Main, North Salt Lake, Utah 84054 Utah Event Report ID No. : UT-06-0001
