German to English translations [PRO]
Science - Science (general) / Radiation protection, X-ray
German term or phrase: Quellenhaltersicherung
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.

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

Explanation:
seems to be fine.
cp.:
