Fixed Nuclear Gauge Radiation Safety Programme

A complete radiation safety programme for a fixed nuclear gauge, the sealed-source device used on production lines to measure fill level, density, thickness or bulk level without touching the product.

Nine editable documents, 80 pages

What is included

  • Completion Guide The five things to complete first, and where each comes from
  • Radiation Protection Programme 22 pages. The governing document.
  • Safe Work Procedure Six tasks, from start-up to clearing a jam
  • Radiological Emergency Response Procedure Seven scenarios, with an immediate action card
  • Radiological Risk Assessment 14 hazards on a 5 x 5 scale, with an action plan
  • Radiation Safety Forms and Registers Source inventory, leak test, checks, training, permit, incident
  • Toolbox Talk 15-minute briefing with an attendance record
  • Jurisdiction Supplement Regulatory mapping, isotope reference, worked example
  • Licence Terms of use

What makes it usable

  • Written to be completed, not filed. Device data, dose rates and regulatory citations are buyer-completed fields, so the pack works for any fixed gamma gauge rather than one model.

  • Regulatory citations are mapped, not assumed. Most gauge manuals cite the regulations of the country of manufacture. The Jurisdiction Supplement shows what to replace and what to ask your regulator.

  • Isotope reference for Am-241, Cs-137 and Co-60, covering energy, half-life, decay significance and shielding implication.

  • A fully worked example so you can see the shape of a completed entry before you write your own.

What it does not cover

Stated plainly, because a document that overstates itself is worse than no document.

  • Portable gauges, well-logging sources, radiography, or X-ray systems that generate radiation electrically
  • Any device whose source is removed from its housing during use
  • Gauges without a mechanical safety shutter, where several controls will not apply

Other documentation

Need this adapted to your operation?

Products cover the system. Tailoring it to your plant, your regulator and your existing documentation is an engagement, and often a short one.
