Safety is No Small Matter: A Complete Guide to Lead Sheet Use | Shandong Qite Professional Interpretation
As a key radiation protection material, lead sheet's proper use and maintenance are directly related to the ultimate effectiveness of the protection project and personnel safety. Shandong Qite Radiation Protection Engineering Co., Ltd., as experts with years of experience in the industry, systematically outlines five key issues you must pay attention to when using lead sheet, helping you build a solid safety line.
1. Professional Installation: The Cornerstone of Safety Protection
Installation is the first and most crucial step to ensuring the effectiveness of lead sheet.
Professional Construction Required: Lead sheet installation must be performed by a professional team like ours. We ensure a tight, secure connection between the lead sheet and the wall, door, and window frames, completely eliminating any gaps that could cause leaks.
Scientific Planning and Positioning: We will accurately calculate and determine the lead sheet installation location, thickness, and angle based on the location, type, and intensity of your radiation source, ensuring the optimal solution for maximum protection.
2. Meticulous Maintenance: Ensuring Long-Term Performance
Daily maintenance is key to extending the life of lead sheet and maintaining its protective performance.
Gentle Cleaning: Regularly wipe dust from the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using sharp, rough tools or highly corrosive cleaning agents to avoid scratching or corroding the surface, which could affect its uniformity.
Regular Inspection: Regularly inspect the lead sheet for scratches, dents, cracks, or deformation. If any damage is found, contact us immediately for professional repair or replacement. Do not attempt to repair the lead sheet yourself.
Strict Impact Prevention: When working near the lead sheet, protective measures must be implemented to prevent mechanical damage such as impact from equipment handling or other activities.
III. Personnel Safety: Core Principles of Operation
Even the best hardware requires qualified personnel to operate it.
Comprehensive Training: Relevant personnel should receive radiation protection training to ensure they fully understand the importance of lead sheeting and safety regulations.
Strict Protection: Even within the lead sheeting protection area, personnel should wear personal protective equipment such as lead vests and lead glasses as appropriate.
Clear Warnings: Display prominent radiation warning signs in the installation area to prevent unauthorized entry and clearly define safety boundaries.
IV. Environment and Compliance: Essential Safeguards
Environmental Control: Lead sheeting should be protected from prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures, humidity, or corrosive environments to prevent changes in its physical properties. Maintain good ventilation.
Compliance and Testing: Strictly adhere to national radiation protection regulations. Regularly inspect the shielding effectiveness of lead sheeting by a professional organization (such as ours) to ensure it consistently meets safety standards.
