German term

Quellenhaltersicherung

German to English Science Science (general) Radiation protection, X-ray
Can anyone help with this term? The document I am working on is a radiation protection instructions manual, and I can't seem to find a suitable translation for Quellenhaltersicherung in the following context having to do with regular monitoring of equipment:

"Schwerpunkte bei der Kontrolle sollen besonders sein:
Funktionstüchtigkeit der Quellenhaltersicherung, sowie des NOT- AUS -Tasters bei Röntgeneinrichtungen..."

Thanks.

Quelle - Sicherung Bei der Quelle dürfte es sich um eine Strahlenquelle handeln. Bei der Sicherung geht um die Befestigung und deren Verriegelung.

...wäre eine Möglichkeit - oder source holder protection

z.B. in http://www.npchse.net/safety/pdf/IPS/G-sf-110.pdf:
6.8.2 Source holder security
The source holder shall be designed in such a way that it cannot release the sealed source accidentally, and shall provide
it with positive retention and mechanical protection.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Sanjay Kesharwani : For "Source Holder", yes. But, I understand that "Sicherung" here means safety mechanism.

source holder mounting

seems to be fine.
cp.:
"Fully certified service personnel inspect the source holder mounting, perform leak tests and shutter checks, and document the radiation levels around the equipment."
Peer comment(s):

neutral Johannes Gleim : So weit so gut. Es fehlt aber noch die Verriegelung.
