Optimal
radiation protection
If radiation
penetrates the human tissue, there is a risk of damage
to tissue and organs. Radiation Shielding Glasses RD 50
and RD 30 provide optimum protection, as they contain a
high percentage of lead oxide, absorbing the rays.
The figure "50" stands for a min. 5,05 g/cm³
density. The figure "30" stands for a min. 3,13 g/cm³
density.
The Radiation Shielding Glasses
RD 50® and RD 30® provide
the best protection for:
|
- Technicians monitoring the x-ray process in
medicine and industry
- Technicians at mammography work stations
- Technicians in research and development
(i.e.
"glove-box")
| RD 50®
