| Title | Agreement State Report - Radioactive Gauge Shutter Failure |
| Event Description | The following information was obtained from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania via facsimile:
The roll pin on the shutter handle of a Ronan Engineering gauge broke, most likely due to environmental conditions. The shutter is in the closed position and the gauge is out of service. The licensee plans to contact the manufacturer for repair. No overexposures have occurred. Manufacturer: Ronan Engineering Model: SA1-F37 Serial #: M7255 Isotope: Cs-137 Activity: 10 mCi Cause of the Event: The gauge is located in a harsh and dirty environment. In the past, they designed and installed a cover to shield the gauge. When inspecting the gauge after the event, it was noticed that this cover had fallen off. Actions: A reactive inspection is planned by the Department [Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection]. More information will be provided upon receipt. PA Report No.: PA160005 |
