The maximum thickness for the use of radioactive isotopes is primarily dictated
by exposure time, therefore upper limits are not shown. The minimum
Recommended thickness limitation may be reduced when the radiography
techniques are used to demonstrate that the required radiographic testing
sensitivityhavebeenobtained,bypurchaserapproval.
