Certificate CDN/2094/B(U)-96 (Rev. 1)
Transport Package Design The transport package design identified below is certified by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission pursuant to paragraph 21(1)(h) of the Nuclear Safety and Control Act and Subsection 10(1) of the Packaging and Transport of Nuclear Substances Regulations, 2015 and to the IAEA's Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material, 2012 Edition.
REGISTRATION OF USE OF PACKAGES All users of this authorization shall register their identity in writing with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission prior to the first use of this authorization and shall certify that they possess the instructions necessary for preparation of the package for shipment.
PACKAGE IDENTIFICATION Designer:
Make/Model:
Mode of Transport:
Nordion (Canada) Inc.
F-522 Air, Rail, Road, Sea IDENTIFICATION MARK The package shall bear the competent authority identification mark "CDN/2094/B(U)-96".
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION The F-522 package, as shown on Nordion Drawing No. F652201-001 (Rev. E) consists of an F-522 overpack, a UK-201 shielding vessel and a containment system.
The overpack consists is a double-walled stainless-steel cylindrical vessel with fittings for lifting and tie-down. The inner space between the stainless steel wall is filled with a closed-cell polyurethane foam used for impact and thermal protection. The overpack uses a top loading lid design which is secured by screws and incorporates a tamper evident seal. A heat shield may be added to restrict access to the top of the package when required.
The UK-201 shielding vessel, consists in a body and a lid which are attached and sealed together by eight MIO bolts and a Silicon 0-ring. The lid and body consist of 75 mm thick depleted uranium encased within stainless steel.

Issue Date: Feb-08-2017 Expiry Date: Mar-31-2020 CNSC File: 30-A2-247-0 The containment system, consists of either an F-248 leak proof insert or stainless steel capsules that have a valid special form radioactive material certificate. The leak proof insert consists of a body and a cap that are threaded together and sealed with a neoprene 0-ring for liquid contents, or a silicon 0-ring for solid contents. When the content meets the requirements for special form radioactive material, a source holder is used to maintain the capsules in place.
An illustration of the package is shown on attached Drawing No. F-522 (Issue D).
Any modification to the package design must be submitted to the CNSC for approval prior to implementation.
