Nalgene™ Acrylic Benchtop Beta Radiation Shield

Protect lab workers with the Thermo Scientific™ Nalgene™ Acrylic Benchtop Beta Radiation Shield, specifically designed for use on the laboratory benchtop during procedures which require the handling of β-emitting isotopes. Made of 3/8″ (9mm) thick acrylic, they are transparent and free-standing with an angled top that allows contents of tubes located behind the shield to be viewed from the top. Available in two sizes. Meet OSHA Standard 29CFR Part 1910.1030 for use as protection against bloodborne pathogens.

• Designed for use on the laboratory benchtop during procedures that require the handling of β-emitting isotopes.
• Made of 3/8 in. (9mm) thick acrylic — stops β-emitting radioactive isotopes
• Transparent with an angled top that allows contents of tubes located behind the shield to be viewed from the top
• 12 in. (305mm) large flat work surface that minimizes the risk of “hot spots” on the benchtop

Includes: Radiation labels

WARNING! Radioactive waste should never be stored on the benchtop for long periods of time and should be disposed of properly. Proper handling and storage of isotopes will minimize exposure to radiation. For standards related to exposure, refer to United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Rules and Regulations, Title 10, Chapter 1, Part 20.
