SAM-9 Shields

Picture
Dufrane’s Small Article Monitor Shield (SAM) is a simple and effective way to reduce background radiation and expedite the monitoring of tools and small articles when entering or exiting a radioactive area.

The SAM-9 Shield is an attractive, cost-efficient solution to a few of your common problems: exposed lead bricks, employee downtime, inefficiency and reduced productivity. The SAM-9 Shield is custom-engineered to meet your specific requirements.

Features:
  • Maximum durability and superior quality construction.
  • All stainless steel surfaces with an attractive brushed finish
  • 1", 1.5" or 2" thickness is standard. Other thicknesses are available to meet specific application requirements.
  • Full lead thickness in side and rear walls, plus .25" of lead equivalent in the lid.
  • Lightweight lid can be easily removed with attached handles (thickness restricted to provide a maximum light weight of 120 lbs).
  • Unique design makes the SAM-9 Shield portable and easily moveable anywhere.
Configurations:
  • Inside dimension: 27" wide x 22" deep x 33.33" high
Approximate Weights:
  • 1" thickness weighs 1,250 lbs.
  • 1.5" thickness weighs 1,900 lbs.
  • 2" thickness weighs 2,700 lbs
Options:
  • Top rear hinged lid available to facilitate easier access to the upper rear section of the monitor.
  • Alternate shield material: the SAM-9 Shield can be built using steel as an alternative to lead.
