Sentinel Model 880 Delta and 880 Elite source
projectors are portable, lightweight and compact industrial
radiographic exposure devices. The exposure device body consists
of a titanium 'S' tube and cast depleted Uranium (DU) shield
contained within a 300 series stainless steel tube with stainless
steel discs welded at each end forming a cylinder shaped housing.
The discs are recessed to provide protection for the rear
mounted locking mechanism and front mounted outlet port.
The horizontally oriented design allows the locking mechanism,
source assembly connector and outlet port to be easily operated,
simplifying connection of source guide tubes and projection
sheaths.
The internal void space of the housing is filled with polyurethane
foam to prevent the ingress of water or foreign material but
is open to atmospheric pressure.
The exposure device body, containing the DU shield, locking
mechanism, outlet port, protective covers and required labels,
comprises the radioactive material transport Type B package.
