What is the maximum radiation level exposure for UN2915 packaging?

The maximum radiation level exposure for UN2915 packaging, which is used for the transport of radioactive material, is set at 0.5 mR/hr at a distance of 1 meter from the package. This limit is established by regulatory guidelines to ensure safety during the transportation of materials that emit radiation.

Maintaining a maximum exposure limit of 0.5 mR/hr helps to minimize the risks associated with radiation exposure for transport workers, the public, and the environment. Packaging that falls under the UN2915 designation typically contains materials that are classified as low-level radioactive waste, and the strict exposure limits reflect the importance of controlling exposure levels to protect human health.

In contrast, the other options represent higher exposure rates that would not be permissible for UN2915 packaging, as they would exceed the safety measures implemented to ensure protection during transport.
