Sealed sources must be leak tested at regular intervals, typically either
every 6 months or 12 months, as specified in your radioactive material license.
To assist users in meeting this requirement, Troxler provides a leak test
kit and analysis service. The Troxler leak test kit contains all of the materials
necessary for users to perform leak tests on devices containing sealed sources.
The purchase of either a full kit or a refill kit includes analysis of the
samples.
Following the leak test kit instructions, the user will collect a leak test
sample. The sample is then returned to Troxler by mail for analysis. Samples
are normally analyzed and a leak test certificate showing the results of the
analysis is mailed to the user (or faxed upon request). About one month before
the next leak test is due, Troxler will automatically mail you a reminder.
Troxler is licensed by the State of North Carolina
(Lic. #032-0182-1) to provide sealed source leak test services for most beta,
gamma, or alpha emitting sources, such as Co-60, Ni-63, Sr-90, Cs-137, Ra-226,
Am-241, and Cf-252. Please call to confirm measurement capability for other
sources.
