FINAL SAFETY ANALYSIS TEN-WATT STRONTIUM-90 FUELED GENERATOR FOR AN UNATTENDED METEOROLOGICAL STATION. SNAP-7C

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4807930
The analysis indicated that the generator can be safely transported and operated with the normal precautions afforded any structure containing a radioisotope. The shielding provided for protection against direct radiation exposure is considered adequate. Integrity of the system is maintained under most conceivable accident conditions. The insolubility and chemical stability of the radiostrontium titanate is incidental as long as containment is maintained. (B.O.G.)
