The environmental shield for dose calibrators is a lead shielding system designed to reduce background radiation around the measuring chamber. It improves measurement accuracy and repeatability during routine use and calibration procedures in nuclear medicine while enhancing operator radiation protection.
Specifications
- Background radiation reduction greater than a factor of 10
- Shielding made of stacked lead rings
- Standard shielding thickness: 4 cm
- Antimony-alloyed lead (3%) for improved mechanical strength
- Compatible with dose calibrators using remote measuring chambers
- Improved stability and reliability of activity measurements
- Weight: +/- 141 kg (310 lb)
Models
- 7300-2450 - Environmental Shield for Dose Calibrator
