Event Description	The following was received from the state of Pennsylvania [the Department] via email: On May 4, 2022, the licensee informed the Department of an equipment malfunction. The licensee reported that on May 3, 2022 a QSA Global Model 880 containing a 37 Curie source of Iridium-192 malfunctioned. The camera's serial number is D15520 and the source serial number is 36110M. During the course of radiographic operations, the automatic lock slide that secures the source failed to completely close.
