Give your technicians the training they have been asking for to better work with the 3500 Series Machinery Monitoring System. If you are tired of calling the OEM for problems that are simple fixes, this training can make your technicians more capable of handling these problems.
Topics include:
This training program provides an overview of radiation safety and nuclear gauge operations. It begins with basic radiation concepts, including atomic structure, types of radiation, units, and exposure levels, then introduces nuclear gauges, their uses, construction, and operation. It emphasizes safety principles such as time, distance, and shielding, along with monitoring tools and surveys, and explains the health effects of radiation exposure. The material also covers regulatory standards, including dose limits, leak testing, and labeling requirements, followed by routine and non-routine gauge procedures such as installation, maintenance, inspections, relocation, and emergency response, concluding with a final exam.
