rt (2) Description i
The packaging contains a thermoelectric generator with 55,000 Ci of strontium 90 titanate or strentium 90 f',uoride. The dimensions are 32.2 inches in height by 37.53 inches in diameter. The package is welded to a 39.5 inch square, steel pallet, which is 4 inches high.
The contents are housed in a stainless steel or Hastelloy C-276 liner. The liner, with its pressed cap, is contained within a fuel capsule (5.5" x 3.735" 00). The capsule lid is threaded for strength and welded (minimum weld penetration of 0.055" is specified) to give a y
positive seal. The wall thickness of the capsule is a minimum of N
0.3475 inches.
The fuel capsule is constructed of Hastelloy C-276 (or Uniloy HC).
The capsule is inserted into the tungsten biological M
shield (8.367" x 6.467" 0D), and the shield plug is bolted into place d
using three steel bolts, equally spaced on a 5.093 inch bolt circle.
[
The tungsten shield is held in a horizontal position within the generator's aluminum housing by the sized Min-K-1301 thermal
(
insulation. Min-K and load bearing Glasrock are used to support the shield base. A retaining ring is used to preloe.d the Min-K and to.
dampen any vibrationa.1 loads.

The finned 6061-T6 aluminum housing forms the outer protective shell of the generator.
Dt. ring shipment, the detachable fin extensions-will be bolted to the fins. This increases the fin diameter from s '
22 inches to 26 inches, holding the generator securely in the shi;, ping
[
cask body (5.68" min. wall thickness, ASTM A-181 grade 2 forged steel).
g The interface between the overlapping fin surfaces is coated with a i
heat transfer compound (D0W Corning 340).
The total system weigh' is approximately 7400 pounds.
(3) Drawings L..
The principal ' features of the package are shown in the drawings contained in the Teledyne Energy Systems application, dated March 3, 1977.
(b) Contents (1) Type and form of material (i) Strontium 90 titanate doubly encapsulated in a stain'less steel liner and Hastelloy or Uniloy HC capsule which meet the require-ments of special form as defined in 571.4(o) of 10 CFR Part 71.
j (ii)
Strontium fluoride (90SrF ) doubly encapsulated in a Hastelloy 2
or Uniloy fuel c'esule, with a Hastelloy C-276 liner which meets the requirements of special form as defined in 171.4(o) of 10 CFR Part 71.
(2) Maximum quantity of material per package 55,000 curies.
