ECONTAMINATION
Should an instrument or component that has been used with radioactive or
pathogenic material require factory or field service, comply with the following
procedure to ensure the safety of service personnel:

Clean the parts to be serviced of all encrusted material and
decontaminate them. There must be no radioactivity detectable by survey
equipment.
•
Obtain a Decontamination Certificate from Omni International.
Complete the certificate and attach to the instrument or parts being
returned.
If no Decontamination Certificate is attached, and a potential radioactive or
biological hazard is detected or suspected by Omni International, the
equipment will not be serviced until proper decontamination and certification
is complete. The sender will be contacted for instructions as to the
disposition of the equipment. Disposition costs will be borne by the sender.
WARNING:
It is a violation of federal law to transport biologically
hazardous or radioactive materials without proper packaging, labeling, and
appropriate warnings.
