ISO 32679:2024
Non-destructive testing — Radiographic testing — Determination of the size of industrial radiographic gamma sources
Product Details
The source size is determined with an accuracy of ±10 % but typically not better than ±0,1 mm.
The source size is provided by the manufacturer as the mechanical dimension of the source insert. A measurement can be required if the manufacturing process is validated or monitored after implementation of the source into the holder.
This document can be used for other radionuclides after validation.
The standard test method ASTM E1114 provides further information on the measurement of the Ir-192 source size, the characterization of the source shape, and its correct assembly and packaging.
