Re: Looking for CPN Corporation
Mike,
I can not recall exact model number...(USA/0115/S)or.. for the gauges.
Generaly soil moisture/density gauges that employed Am241Be by CPN were
O.K. in 1995-96
in Texas. TRCR is adopted NRC regs and they both are supporting the US
DOT regs in part
of special form certifcates and sealed sources transport containers
certification.
I think that the certificate and your gauge would be OK in the US. But
you need to check the model and serial numbers. What are the test
requirements for special form sealed sources in Australia? Are the same
as in US ?
