8.1 Dismounting steps
As soon as a radiometric measuring system is no longer required, the
radiation must be switched off on the source holder (position "OFF").
The source holder must be dismounted under consideration of all
relevant regulations and stored in a lockable room without through
traffic.
Inform the responsible authorities of this measure.
The access area for this storage room must be measured (µSv/h) and
marked. The radiation safety officer is responsible for implementing
anti-theft measures.
Care must be taken that the source in the source holder is not
scrapped together with the rest of the system.
Arrange for a return shipment as soon as possible.
Caution:
Dismounting may only be carried out by authorized, qualified person-
nel who are monitored for radiation exposure according to local laws
or the handling permit. Take note of the specifications in the existing
handling permit.
All local conditions must be taken into account.
All work must be carried out in the shortest possible time and at the
largest possible distance (shielding). Also, the endangering of other
persons must be avoided through suitable measures (e.g. safety
fence, etc.).
The source holder may only be dismounted when the radiation is
switched off. Make sure that the switch position OFF is secured by a
lock.
