HPGe Lead Shielding System is a robust and reliable storage solution designed to protect high security germanium detectors from radiation. This system is armored with steel sheets and lead wedges of various shapes, causing the detector’s cross-sections to be revealed at the highest level.
- Structure: The system has inner and outer walls and a main chamber made of 5 mm thick steel sheet. The outside of the main chamber is surrounded by an additional firing envelope made of 5 mm long steel sheet. These structures protect the detector from high radiation.
- Cover: The system is equipped with a sliding, collapsible cover made of sheet steel in 5 and 10 mm sections. Lead wedges, where steel sheets are placed, provide additional protection and prevent radiation from reaching the detector.
- Inner Coating: The inner surface of the main chamber and the cover is covered with 1.5 mm copper plate. This coating protects the exterior of the detector from chemical effects and ensures that the treatment is applied.
This lead shielding system equips HPGe detectors with maximum protection against radiation, ensuring precise measurements and long life of the detector. The robust construction and superior material quality make this protection system an ideal solution for high-dispersion protection applications.
