All XRF users must review the general classification to ACMAL authorization, use rates, and session accountability.
XRF Authorization
Only the people who are qualified, responsible, and have taken the proper training courses will be designated as UNRESTRICTED USERS: note that this designation carries additional responsibilities to use the equipment in a safe and efficient manner. In addition, these users obtain a key to the laboratory allowing 24 hr access.
Having run some of the equipment does not automatically qualify you as an UNRESTRICTED USER, you will be a RESTRICTED USER until the facility manager feels you are properly qualified.
RESTRICTED USERS can only run scans under the supervision of the facility manager.
Users are prohibited from doing XRD analysis for persons other that themselves without approval from facility manager.
