Our SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources are available in maximum focal sizes ranging from 1.4 mm to 3.5 mm and nominal activities up to 100 Ci. (3.7 TBq).
Radioisotope sources contain a quasi-spherical metallic pellet for the smallest possible focal dimension which minimizes Source-Film-Distance (SFD) and heightens sensitivity on fixed geometries.
Safety is our top priority. QSA Global, Inc. radioisotope sources are made of a patented vanadium-selenium metal alloy producing the highest possible thermal stability combined with physical strength and durability compared to commonly used elemental Se-75.
Our SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources are available in maximum focal sizes ranging from 1.4 mm to 3.5 mm and nominal activities up to 100 Ci. (3.7 TBq).
SENTINEL Se-75 is designated for use within the steel thickness range of 0.20 in-1.57 in (5 mm-40 mm) per ISO 5579:2013.
QSA Global, Inc. distributes radioisotope sources worldwide by utilizing the industry’s largest fleet of source changers. Source changers are available to deliver a single source up to ten sources in a container for device reloads at your facility or at one of QSA Global, Inc.’s authorized service centers.
QSA Global, Inc. offers a variety of options for SENTINEL Se-75 source changes to minimize downtime of your assets. QSA Global, Inc. and our authorized distributors can reload your SENTINEL Se-75 device at local facilities around the world by trained technicians or sources can be delivered directly to your facility for reload by your trained technicians.
Radioactive materials that are no longer required must be transferred to a licensed recipient for final disposition. QSA Global, Inc. provides a one for one exchange on SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources.
QSA Global, Inc.’s SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources are ideal for controlling the size of the exclusion zone during radiographic exposures at congested work sites. SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources are used on off shore oil rigs and at power generation plants during outages to reduce non-occupational worker exposure.

Small, light-weight SENTINEL Se-75 exposure devices can be used in difficult to access locations that x-ray generators cannot go due to their size, weight, and power requirements.
SENTINEL Se-75 is the preferred isotope for our SCAR exposure devices to enable the safety exclusion zone at worksites to be minimized during radiographic exposures in congested areas.
QSA Global, Inc.’s SENTINEL Se-75 radioisotope sources are also designed for use in our 880 Series projectors for traditional radiography.
