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.

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.

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.
