8.2 Decontamination shall be attempted in cases when the detector surfaces contamination
(including surfaces accessible during repair) can be reduced below allowable limits.
In case the radioactive contamination exceeds allowable limits, requirements set forth for the
radioactive wastes become applicable to the detectors.
8.3 Detectors accepted for operation after decontamination are subjects for repair or
replacement in case of failure. Detectors not suitable for operation, with radioactive contamination
levels below permissible limits, should be dismantled to prevent further use and transferred to a special
site for disposal of industrial wastes.
8.4 Detectors with expired lifetime, accepted for use after decontamination, shall undergo
technical inspection. If the technical condition of a detector is satisfactory, an extended operation term
of the product shall be determined.
