&: MR460S1645 DATE:

October 07, 1980 PAGE 2 0F 3 SEALED SOURCE TYPE:

Beta Source DESCRIPTION:

i The source consists of a titanium bar with a 0.187" slot millec 0.200" deep.

The slot is covered with a 0.002" thick titanium window sealed by "GAPASIL 9" brazing.

The source is filled through a 1/16" copper tube silver brazed afte.r filling.

The active dimensions of the source are 1.125" by 0.187".

The overall dimensions are 3.370" long, 0.38" wice and 0.300" deep.

Each flange has a =24 (0.152") hole, the holes are 3.00" apart center-to-center.

LABELING:

The source is labeled with: Manufacturer's name, isotope, quantity, model and serial numbers, and date.

f CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE:

The Model 3E40 is designed for industrial beta gauging applications for temperature range of 32-158'F (0 to 70*C) and atmospheric pressure.

PROTOTYPE TESTING:

This sealed source is designed to comply with requirements of American National Standards Institute ANSI N5.10-1968 classification 32231.

EXTERNAL RADIATION LEVELS:

The external radiation levels from the-source are as follows:

Dose Rates From 3M 3E40 (1.9 Ci)

Dose At Position 5 CM 30 CM Nonnal to window -(beta) 1100 R/hr*

40 R/hr Normal to long side (garmna) 140 mr/hr 25 mr/hr Normal to back side (gamma) 100 mr/hr 20 mr/hr
