acknowledged to be the highest safety classification governing industrial source con-
tainments.
Source Container The gamma rays emitted by the radioactive source radiate equally in all directions. In
level measurement, however, only that radiation which travels through the vessel is
required. All radiation in other directions is unwanted and must be shielded off. For this
reason, the capsule containing the source is located in the source container, ensuring
that unattenuated radiation can be emitted in the required direction only.
