So rce Exchanger DESCRIPTION:
"The device consists-of a depleted uranium shield and polyurethane filler enclosed in a'1/8".(3.18 mm)- circular steel housing constructed by' rolling a right circular cylinder and heliarcing two circular _end pieces'.
The' depleted uranium shield (approximately 37 lbs. (17 kg)) is secured in place by two circular endpieces.
The polyurethane
- filler acts as.a cushion'between the' casting and the housing.
A zircaloy "S"[ tube extends through the uranium' shield.
At each end there is'a_ lock boxEthrough which the source pigtail cable and male half.of the quick disconnect-connect connector protrude (S-16). !A plunger typeJ1ock secures the source assembly against
- movement.in the uranium "S"
tube.
S-16 sources'which'are used in cameras other than Gamma Industries-Century and Gamma 35 Models are provided with two locking balls.
The ball closer to the capsule is used for Llocking;the source 1in a safe position in the C-10 source.
exchanger and the-ball closer to the connector is for locking the sources in'a safe position in'the camera.
-Two tamper seals are furnished with the shipment.
A protector tube is included' for the protection and the security of the excess pigtail' protruding from the C-10 lock box.
The protector tube is
-exactly the proper length'(within an 1/8". [3.18 mm] ) to protect and
'he movementLof the pigtail.
A small hole is drilled restrict t
through'the lock box and.the' flexible protector tube.
When the protector tube'is in place over the decayed sources,.the.two holes
'are;1ined up and'one of the tamper seals-is threaded through the holes and:the tamper seal'is crimped.with a pair of pliers.
The-secondLtamper seal is furnished to secure the-safety. plunger.
'The method.of securing the safety plunger is' identical to the method for sealing with flexible protector tube.

' DESCRIPTION (Cont'd):
To provide ease of' movement, a-handle is attached to the top of r
.the container. 'The outside dimensions of the right circular
_ cylinder are 5" (12.7 cm) in. diameter by 8" (20.32 cm) high.
' LABELING:
~.The device is labeled with appropriate. DOT transportation labels; zin addition,'a-_ label with the standard radiation caution symbol, in color,fspeci'fies the isotope, activity, date of calibration, source' serial' number, and it states " Danger, DO NOT HANDLE,
. Radioactive Material.
Notify Gamma Industries, Baton Rouge, i
Louisiana or; Civil Authorities."

EXTERNAL RADIATION LEVELS:
The radiationrlevelsfare the same_as;for Gamma' Century with a single. source of-the same strength.
LIMITATIONS AND/OR OTHER CONSIDERATIONS OF USE:
- Normally only one source is shipped'to the licensee, the other
" source port" being.used to place the-licensee's depleted source for return.
Occasionally, two sources will be shipped if the
~ licensee-has an additional device in which he can transfer the
'depletedisource.

' ' SAFETY ANALYSIS
SUMMARY
- The Model C-10 device is no longer l manufactured.or distributed'by Gamma Industries, Inc. and Gamma Industries,. Inc. is no~ longer in
- business'.
Therefore, the registration certificate is being converted.to an inactive registration certificate'.
l i
The device.was-originally. approved for licensing purposes by the Louisiana Division.of Radiati'n Control.
NRC attempted to obtain o -
copies of:all-information submitted by the registrant.in support 1
of the evaluation.
However,fNRC~could not locate all the
-'information
.~Therefore,7no safety evaluation of the device was J
performed-as'part of the'conversioncof the certificate to inactive status.
