Iridium-192 (Ir-192)
About the Product
A widely used industrial gamma-ray isotope and the industry standard for radiographic inspection of dense and thick-walled materials.
Brief Description
Ir-192 provides a versatile energy range suitable for a broad steel thickness range, making it ideal for pipeline weld inspection, structural integrity assessment, and heavy-section components. It balances exposure time, contrast, and penetration.
Application notes
• Pipeline and process piping weld inspection
• Structural steel and pressure vessels
• General-purpose industrial radiography
• Replacement loading in compatible gamma projectors
Industry and specifications
20–200 Ci source for 10–90 mm steel.
• Half-life ~74 days
• Gamma energy range suitable for 10–90 mm steel (typical)
• High activity sources available for shorter exposure times
• Compatible with multiple projectors (e.g., Dual, Fortes, ITS, Sentinel-type units)
