For beta and gamma radiation
Shielded Storage Containers are useful
for storing used syringes, alcohol wipes, etc., that may be contaminated
with low-energy gamma or beta radiation residue prior to disposal.
The
050-200 and 050-250 Storage Containers are constructed of stainless
steel lined with .125" lead (.32 cm.).
The 050-205 is constructed
of stainless steel lined with .25" lead
(.64 cm) and .0625" aluminum (1.6 mm). This shielding combination
attenuates gamma radiation, beta radiation and errant bremsstrahlung.
