Scope

This standard establishes guidance for the design and use of common types of installations that use x-ray generating devices and sealed gamma-ray sources, of energies up to 10 MeV, for non-medical purposes. Its main objectives are to keep the exposure of persons to radiation to levels as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA), and to ensure that no one receives greater than the maximum permissible dose equivalent.
