NO.- NR-8099-S-801-S DATE: APR 17 )gg, PAGE 2 OF 4 SOURCE TYPE: Neutron Source DESCRIPTION:

Americium oxide powder mixed with beryllium powder is contained within two concentric stainless steel capsules with each capsule sealed by continuous welds. Minimum wall thickness is 0.030 inch (0.76 mm).

The outer capsule contains a 1/4-20 NC threaded hole in one end.

The dimensions of the source vary with the amount of contained americium-241 from 1 inch (25. 4 mm) in diameter by 1.32 inch (33. 5 mm) in height, for a 1.0 curie (37 GBq) source, to ,

1.5 inches (38.1 mm) in diameter by 3.65 inches (92.7 mm) in i height, for a 10.0 curie (370 GBq) source. j l LABELING:

. Each source is stamped with 0.125 inch (3.2 mm) letters on the I

end with the model number: "PL- AmBe- (a number) " .

DIAGRAM:

l l See attachment 1.

1 CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE:

The sources were designed for general use, one of which was oil well logging. However, the sources are not currently approved for use in well logging applications (reference November 1, 1991 letter from John Glenn, NRC).

The maximum recommended continuous use temperature is 300 C (572 F).

PROTOTYPE TESTING:

The manufacturer had prototype tested the source at 500 C (932 F) for a period of one week and pressure of 5000 psi (34. 5 MPa) .

REGISTRY OF RADIOACTIVE SEALED SOURCES AND DEVICES SAFETY EVALUATION OF SEALED SOUR.CE NO.- NR-8099-S-801-S DATE: PAGE 3 OF 4 gpg t 71S$8, SOURCE TYPE: Neutron Source EXTERNAL RADIATION LEVELS:

The manufacturer reported the following radiation levels:

Neutron: 2.2 x 10' n/sec/ curie Gamma: 10 mR/hr/ curie at one meter (0.06 MeV) 0.1 mR/hr/ curie at one meter (4.45 MeV)

OUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL:

The manufacturer stated that each source was:

1. Inspected for weld defects.
2. Pressure tested with 100 psi (689.5 kPa) helium followed by a bubble test in a liquid.
3. Tested for external contamination with a maximum permissible level of 20 DPM.
4. Stored for one week and again checked as in 3 for any increase in contamination.

LIMITATIONS AND/OR OTHER CONSIDERATIONS OF USE:

  • The source shall only be used by specific licensees of NRC or Agreement States.
  • The source shall be leak tested at intervals not to exceed 6 months using techniques capable of detecting 0.005 microcurie (185 Bq) of removable contamination.
  • Handling, storage, use, transfer, and disposal: To be determined by the licensing authority.
  • This registration sheet and the information contained within the references shall not be changed without the written consent of the NRC.

SUMMARY

The PL-AmBe Neutron source was originally approved for licensing purposes by the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) on May 27, 1966. ,

1 These devices are no longer manufactured and distributed by  !

Parkwell Laboratories. The company is out of business. {

There is insufficient information on file for this source to have performed a complete safety evaluation. Therefore, this )

registration certificate has been transferred to inactive status without further review based on the original review and approval issued by the AEC.

REFERENCES:

The following supporting documents for the Model PL-AmBe Neutron Source are hereby incorporated by reference and are made a part of this registry document.

- Insocetion on January 21. 1993 (Recort No. 030-05868/93001(DRSS))

A Areas Inspected: This was a'special closcout inspection which included a review of the licensee's former activities associated with the decontamination

.0 and remediation of their formerly used office, manufacturing, and laboratory i

areas located at 429 North High Street, Croton, Ohio. This inspection was in response to an NRC project;in which an evaluation of approximately 17,000 m retired licenses was conducted by an NRC contractor, Oak Ridge National

! Laboratories (ORNL), .On the basis of the information in the retired license j files, sites having a potential for significant residual contamination in their former facilities were to be investigated further. Due to the lack of 4.

documentation in the General Nuclear, Inc. and Parkwell Laboratories, Inc.

.', retired license flie, the NRC contractor concluded that the former facilities used by these companies during the period of 1965-1980 could have significant 1

amounts of residual contamination.

A. EtntLti: The NRC inspector did not identify any radiation icvels above natural background within the facilities or surrounding environment. Based
