On July 20, 2011, the Agency [Texas Department of Health] was notified by the licensee that they had completed radiography operations at a field site using a INC IR-100 radiography camera containing an 82 curie iridium-192 source and retracted the source to its fully shielded position. The radiographer surveyed the camera and found the readings to be normal. When he disconnected the drive cable from the source pigtail, he found that the pigtail was no longer protruding from the back of the camera, it was now flush with the rear of the device. The shipping plug and the front dust cover were placed on the camera. The camera is being returned to the manufacturer for repair. Additional information will be provided as it is received. The licensee believes that the locking device that holds the pigtail in place inside the camera has failed. The serial number for the camera is 4590. | On July 20, 2011, the Agency [Texas Department of Health] was notified by the licensee that they had completed radiography operations at a field site using a INC IR-100 radiography camera containing an 82 curie iridium-192 source and retracted the source to its fully shielded position.
