Any licensing issues discussed in this manual are for the United
States. To purchase a Model 3430 in Canada, owners must obtain a
radioisotope license from the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission
(CNSC). The owner should obtain copies of the CNSC Regulations
and the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act and Regulations.
This manual provides a guide to Canadian shipping requirements in
Appendix D.
Owners are encouraged to require study of this manual by users
before allowing any use of the instrument. To monitor exposure to
radiation, personnel should wear a dosimeter while operating or
cleaning the gauge. The sections of the manual covering radiation
safety should be required reading for all operators and potential
operators. If these sections are not completely understood, users
should seek assistance from Troxler, an appointed Troxler
representative or others designated within the user
organization. Additional radiation safety information is available
by attending a Troxler Nuclear Gauge Training Course.
As changes are made to local, state, and federal regulations on a
continuing basis, the owner/user must maintain a knowledge of
these regulations. The responsibility for compliance ultimately falls
upon the owner. The owner may also wish to purchase and
subscribe to Titles 10 and 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations in
addition to applicable local/state regulations.
NOTE
This manual also contains radiological information for
the Model 3430-M. The 3430 and 3430-M have the same
functions and operational aspects but different neutron
sources.
