Each device shall be re-tested at no longer than six (6) month intervals, or at intervals not to exceed three (3) years as is specified in the label required by this section.
Devices containing only krypton need not be tested for leakage, and devices containing only tritium need not be tested for any purpose.
Each person who owns, receives, acquires, possesses, or uses a device pursuant to a general license issued under this section shall have the tests required by § 6803.9 and all other services involving the radioactive materials, and its shielding and containment, performed by the supplier or other person duly authorized by a specific license or equivalent licensing document issued by the Director, the NRC, or any agreement state, to manufacture, install, or service the device.
