Radioactive Yellow Ii Label

Radioactive yellow iii label. The activity of the radioactive materials expressed in appropriate si units eg megabecquerels mbq gigabecquerels gbq.

Hazard Recognition D Recognition

Transport index for yellow ii or yellow iii labels only the maximum radiation level at one meter from the surface of the package in milliremhour.

Radioactive yellow ii label. Class 7 radioactive ii hazmat dot labels the background color on the radioactive yellow ii label must be yellow in the top half and white in the lower half. Transport index also known as ti. Radioactive yellow ii labels.

The printing and the radiation symbol are black except for the i ii or iii numerals which must be red. The transport index is determined by taking the maximum radiation level as measured in mremhr at one meter 33 feet from an undamaged package. Radioactive white i label.

Typically radiography sources come under the yellow ii labeling requirements. See appendix h for a list of ti values for troxler gauges. Some radioactive materials in exclusive use with low specific activity radioactive materials will not bear the label however the radioactive placard is required.

The printing and symbol must be black except for the ii which must be red. Radioactive yellow ii label. Radioactive label category radioactive materials are categorized by their level of activity radioactive l white radioactive ll yellow or radioactive lll yellow.

The maximum allowable radioactivity is 50 millirem hr on the package surface and one millirem hr at three feet from the package. The labels are white except for the upper half of the radioactive yellow ii and radioactive yellow iii labels which are yellow. For example a package with a transport index of 08 and a maximum surface radiation level of 06 millisievert 60 millirems per hour must bear a radioactive yellow iii label.

The higher the activity the higher the category number. B in addition to complying with 172407 the background color on the radioactive yellow ii label must be yellow in the top half and white in the lower halfthe printing and symbol must be black except for the ii which must be red. A except for size and color the radioactive yellow ii must be as follows.

The radioactive yellow ii label is attached to packages with extremely low levels of external radiation. Radioactive yellow ii label can be used for up to 10 mremhr at 1 meter. Radioactive white i is the lowest category and radioactive yellow iii is the highest.

Radioactive yellow ii labels are used if the surface dose rate does not exceed 05 msv h 50 mrh and the dose rate at 1 m 3937 in the transport index does not exceed 001 msv h 1 mrh. The maximum allowable radioactivity is 05 milliremhr on the package surface. The radioactive label for moisture density gauges is.
