(2) Description The 55h Refueling Source shipping container consists of two structures, I
ene nested within the other, having an overall envelope of 5 feet, W
5 inches diameter by 9 feet, 5-5/8 inches length. The outer structure, I
the shipping container, is a ring of ' polyethylene 11-1/2 inches thick I
with an OD of 5 feet 4 inches and length of approximately 5 feet 2 l(
inches. The polyethylene is canned in a 1/2-inch thick carbon steel y
shell. The inner structure, the replacement and installation container, y
fits into the cavity of the outer structure. This assembly consists N
j of a 6-1/2 inch OD, 79-5/8 inches long stainless central tube, which R
i is plugged at both ends by machined stainless steel forgings.
Three N
cavities are machined in the bottom end plug to contain the neutron h,
source assemblies.
A jacket of lead, 6 inches thick, encircles the h
central tube and this innermost layer of shielding is to attenuate the i
gamma radiation.
A wall of polyethylene, 8-1/2 inches thick, surrounds i
the lead shield and is canned with a 1/2-inch thick carbon steel i
plate.
Gross weight is approximately 19,000 pounds.
