Leak Testing

Periodic leak tests on source holders are required by government licenses to ensure no radioactive material has escaped and contaminated equipment or personnel. Radiation Safety Officers may obtain leak test samples and return them to VEGA Americas for analysis, or a member of our Field Service staff can visit your site, gather samples for analysis, and document the operability of your shutter mechanisms. VEGA Americas provides licensed technical analysis on several isotopes used with radiometric devices.

Survey Meter Calibration

Radiation survey instrumentation is required to receive routine calibration to ensure proper functionality. VEGA Americas can provide calibration services for survey meters from most manufacturers.

Source Holder and Shutter Repair

Our Field Services staff can repair most source holder shutters in the field if the shutter becomes stuck or otherwise inoperable. Should the repair require specialized service, the VEGA source holder can be professionally prepared for shipment to our facility for repair or recycle/disposal and replacement if necessary.

Resource Program and returning radiometric services

As a complete radiometric measurement solutions provider, we are committed to supporting total management of nuclear source ownership. To fulfill this commitment to our customers and to protect the environment, VEGA Americas is pleased to offer a responsible method of source lifecycle management as an alternative to stockpiling and burial. Our ReSource Program focuses on reprocessing and reusing radioactive sources used in industrial measurement systems.
