1-Organization:

D l ~~

The Quality Assurance Manual for the Magnaflux Corporation lists the executive line of authority with names of those responsible for the Quality Assurance Program and Quality Control application.

The quality control managers are free of schedule and cost consider-ations and are only bound by the criteria listed on the control draw-ings and specific written inspection instructions where so designated on the subassembly and final assembly drawings.

2-Quality Assurance Program For The MX-IC-100 Camera:

A-The QA Program is outlined in the QA Manual, the QC Manual, and the inspection required per the " Inspection Control MX-IC-100" drawing B-211553.

(See Appendix - Item 1-2-3).

B-All materials and components of the MX-IC-100 exposure device must comply to the QA Program and in particular to the safety related items as the lock assembly, the depleted uranium casting and its welded housing.

s The QC Inspection Department, under the direction of the QC Manager, has the sole responsibliity of 100% inspection of each finished unit before it is ready to be sold. The finished units as a group have one or more " move" tickets attached with the signature of the inspec-tor. The units are stored in a locked metal cabinet in the stock room.

The sequence of inspections and inspection drawings for the MX-IC-100 are listed on the Inspection Control drawing, B-211553 (App.-3).

This drawing lists the inspection reports which must be signed and kept on file for the life of the MX-IC-100 unit.

The five considerations outlined in this section of the CFR, were incorporated in the QA Program by the special notations listed on the various inspection reports. These inspection reports are sup-plied to the QC Inspection Department with each new production order.

The considerations are:

1-The importance of malfunction or failure of the item to safety is stated in:

I a-Drawing B-211552 - Inspection required for B-211600 Lock - (Appendix-4), line B-10 states: "This lock is used to secure dangerous amounts of radio-active mater-ial. Failsafe operation cust be assured".

b-Drawing B-212819 - Inspection required for the MX-IC-100 Camera - (Appendix-5), line C-3 states:

"If any lock mal-f unction occurs, reject the unit".

c-Drawing B-211726 - Radiation Inspection; Shield Casting -

(Appendix-6) note 5 states:

"All castings with I4 larger than 200 MR/HR =ust be reworked".

(I4 " present surface radiation corrected for 100 Ci IR 192).

2-The design and fabrication uniquenec; were controlled by safety considerations. Compliance to the design as approved by the NRC is assured by specific inspeccion procedures outlined in the inspection control drawing B-211553 (Appendix-3).

3-Special controls and surveillance of the major. safety features of the unit are assured by separate, written inspection instructions which are signed and kept on file by the Inspection Department for the life of the unit. The major safety oriented features are:

a-Adequate radiation shielding (B-211726 Appendix-6).

b-Weld inspection (B-211607 Appendix-7).

4-Functional compliance is assured by written inspection procedures which require the actual-operation of each final unit without fail-ure. (B-212819 Appendix-5).

5-The quality history has been excellent with no serious malfunction resulting from design or worksanship.

Standardization of all com-ponents has been maintained since the original design.

Design changes will be made as dictated through experience.

Any maj or design change will be sent to the Washington N.R.C. which evaluated the original design, so their records will be updated.

3-Desien Control:

The equipment is designed per standard manufacturing practices, and all designs are reviewed by a mechanical engineer, with radiographic train-ing, and the radiation safety officer for compliance with NRC codes and regulations.

All details, assemblies and inspection lists are for= ally drawn and kept on permanent file at the company's Chicago address.

All changes of design are reviewed by the above parties, and formal change records are kept.

w 2012 219

The verifying process is done by the QA Inspection Department which is independent of,the Design and Manufacturing Departments.

Any changes will comply with NRC rules and regulations, and the NRC will be consulted on any major change for possible license revision requirements.
