Hutches:

Radiation Shielded Rooms (Hutches or Enclosures) for a range  Synchrotron Radiation Sources  Hutches are custom Designed & Manufactured to meet customer specified shielding requirements.  Typically the Lead shielding thickness required ranges from 1mm-50mm (100-200mm Locally).  The Hutch Structures can incorporate a variety of design features including, but not limited to, Sliding Personnel Access Doors, Hinged Personnel Access Doors, Alignment Windows, Utility Access Chicanes/Labyrinths, Viewing Windows, Local Shielding/Bremstrahlung Walls, Beam Tube Shielding, Access Hatches in Roof Panels/Removable Roof Panels & Cranes. 

 
Front End Shielding: (Primary & Secondary Bremsstrahlung Collimators)

Careful ray trace work is required to determine the spatial design and location of such collimators. Calder are very experienced in the manufacture of such specialised lead brick collimator assemblies interfaced to beam line vacuum containment.

 

 

Pipe Shielding:

Calder have a range of moulds and extrusion dies to suit pipe shielding requirements with mating faces to prevent shine paths occurring in both directions. These segments can be installed efficiently to form a complete barrier along active pipe runs.

 

 

 

 

"L" Shields:

Bench mounted "L" shaped shield to provide protection while the patient dose is dispensed from stock. Lead protection to both vertical and horizontal surfaces, with an angled lead glass viewing window. These have been installed throughout the nuclear research, medical, industrial and scientific communities.
