- a. This certificate is issued to certify that the package (packaging and contents) described in Item 5 below meets the applicable safety standards set forth in Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 71 , "Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Material."
- b. This certificate does not relieve the consignor from compliance with any requirement of the regulations of the U.S. Department of Transportation or other applicable regulatory agencies, including the government of any country through or into which the package will be transported.
- 3. THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED ON THE BASIS OF A SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT OF THE PACKAGE DESIGN OR APPLICATION
- a. ISSUED TO (Name and Address) b. TITLE AND IDENTIFICATION OF REPORT OR APPLICATION QSA Global, Inc. QSA Global, Inc., application dated 40 North Avenue January 15, 2020.
Burlington, MA 01803
- 4. CONDITIONS This certificate is conditional upon fulfilling the requirements of 10 CFR Part 71 , as applicable, and the conditions specified below.
5.
(a) Packaging (1) Model No.: 650L (2) Description A welded carbon or stainless steel cylindrical outer shell encases a welded carbon or stainless steel rectangular inner shell. The inner shell contains a titanium "U" tube set in depleted uranium along with internal supports. The tube is crimped in the middle of the "U" to provide a positive stop for the source assembly. Additional shielding is provided by lead or tungsten positioned at various locations around the depleted uranium shield. The Model No.
650L has two source locking assemblies, mounted on the top cover plate, that are used to secure the radioactive special form source, lridium-192 or Selenium-75, in a shielded position during transport. The packaging measures approximately 10-inches (254 mm) wide, 13.25-inches (337 mm) high and 8.25-inches (210 mm) deep. The maximum weight of the packaging is 90 pounds (41 kg) .
(3) Drawings The packaging is constructed in accordance with QSA Global, Inc., Drawing No. R65006, Revision P, sheets 1-5.
(b) Contents (1) Type and form of material lridium-192 as sealed sources which meet the requirements of special form radioactive material.

- a. CERTIFICATE NUMBER b. REVISION NUMBER c. DOCKET NUMBER d. PACKAGE IDENTIF ICATION NUMBER PAGE PAGES 9269 11 71-9269 USA/9269/B(U)-96 2 OF 3 5.(b) Contents (continued)
Selenium-75 as sealed sources which meet the requirements of special form radioactive material.
(2) Maximum quantity of material per package lr-192 : 240 curies (8.9 TBq) (output)
Se-75: 300 curies (11 .1 TBq) (content)
Output curies are determined by measuring the source output at 1 meter and expressing its activity in curies derived from the following: 0.48 R/(h-Ci) lridium-192 at 1 meter (Ref:
American National Standard N432-1980, "Radiological Safety for the Design and Construction of Apparatus for Gamma Radiography").
(3) Maximum weight of contents 0.08 pounds (36 grams), including the mass of radioactive material and the weight of the source capsule handling wire assembly for a shipment containing two source wire assemblies.
(4) Maximum decay heat lr-192 : 4.8 Watts Se-75: 1.52 Watts
- 6. The source shall be secured in the shielded position of the packaging by the source assembly. The source assembly must be fabricated of materials capable of resisting a 1475°F fire environment for one-half hour and maintaining its positioning function . The cable of the source assembly must engage the source hold-down assembly. The flexible cable of the source assembly must be of sufficient length and diameter to provide positive positioning of the source at the crimp of the "U" tube.
- 7. The nameplates shall be fabricated of materials capable of resisting the fire test of 10 CFR Part 71 and maintaining their legibility.
- 8. In addition to the requirements of Subpart G of 10 CFR Part 71 :
(a) The package shall be prepared for shipment in accordance with the Operating Procedures in Chapter 7 of the application , and (b) The packaging shall be maintained in accordance with the Maintenance Program in Chapter 8 of the application.
