Thermo Scientific Benchtop Beta Radiation Shield, Acrylic - RWS-2418-NALGE

Description

The Thermo Scientific™ Nalgene™ Acrylic Benchtop Beta Radiation Shield is a key safety tool designed to protect laboratory workers from beta radiation exposure. Made from 3/8-inch (9 mm) thick acrylic, this freestanding shield offers a transparent barrier that ensures clear visibility of the work surface. Its angled top design improves the view of items behind the shield, allowing safe operation while maintaining an unobstructed line of sight.

This radiation shield is designed for environments where beta-emitting isotopes are used, providing reliable protection and ensuring compliance with essential health and safety guidelines. The shield also features standard radiation safety labels, making it easier to meet regulatory requirements for radiation safety in the laboratory.
