Cobalt-60 Supply

When building an irradiator it is vital that cobalt-60 is available to load when the facility is complete. Powerplus Systems Ltd are flexible. Either the customer can arrange the first cobalt-60 loading with a third party, or Powerplus have negotiated an agreement for the supply of cobalt-60 from one of the worlds most respected cobalt-60 source manufacturers.

Pallet Plant Summary Quality Systems:

Design principles:

High availability, very low maintenance, one or two level irradiators with one, two or four passes on each side of the source rack. Available with dry source storage up to 2 MCi, and 8 MCi with wet storage.

 

Safety:

As with all our plants the source hoist cylinder is mechanically, electrically, hydraulically and computer interlocked to prevent operators from ever being exposed to a dangerous condition. For further details of Powerplus safety systems please click on the controls systems link menu above.

 

Power transmission:

Hydraulic cylinders mounted outside the cell provide the motion in the cell via push rods which travel through the biological shield.

 

Maintenance:

With all the drive cylinders mounted outside the cell the amount of maintenance required is minimal. With the rollers fitted to the carriers and not in track form within the cell, routine maintenance is carried out without the need to stop the facility.
