| Title | Lock Malfunction on a Radiography Camera |
| Event Description | On June 29th [at approximately 0100], the radiography crew working the Alpine Oil Field on the North Slope of Alaska experienced a malfunctioning locking system on an Industrial Nuclear Corporation (INC) IR-100 exposure device (serial number 4814).
During the night shift the locking mechanism on the exposure device would not operate properly. When the locking latch was depressed the source could not be moved to the exposed position. When retract pressure was applied, the locking device would not 'pop up', it had to be moved manually. The source never left the safe and secure position. The trained radiographer who can work on the locking mechanism decided that the camera would be tagged out and returned to the manufacturer for repair. The camera will be shipped [on today]. There was no exposure to the crew or the General Public during this incident. The IR-100 unit uses a 52 Curie Ir-192 source. Source S/N: P311. The licensee has informed Region 4. |
