Definitions
- the invention provides an irradiation apparatus with a continuous track on which a series of loads are suspended and moved along in a continuous manner by a series of conveyors moving at different speeds about a radiation source within an irradiation chamber.
- the track includes two pairs of parallel track sections which are disposed on opposite sides of the radiation source and interconnected by loop sections. The parallel track sections allow the loads to be moved about the radiation source for a double dose of radiation.
