Radiation protection
For medical and scientific rooms
In medicine, safety engineering, research and industry – or wherever shielding is required against harmful X-rays, gamma rays and electromagnetic radiation, there is no room for compromise. Therefore, it is not only the doors of hospitals and doctors’ surgeries – behind which X-ray diagnosis takes place – that are subject to special requirements. Staff in university laboratories and other research institutes must also be reliably protected against harmful radiation.
Safe radiation protection doors made of steel profiles
Radiation protection doors made of steel profiles can provide reliable protection against unwanted radiation. Due to its material properties, steel is predestined for the manufacture of high-quality radiation protection doors with a long service life. Steel profile systems from Jansen also offer the possibility of unobtrusively integrating other requirements such as sound, fire and smoke protection. The compatibility of radiation protection doors with glass components is ensured by the use of tested radiation protection glass from renowned manufacturers.
Requirements for the construction of radiation protection doors
DIN 6834 sets out specifications for the construction of doors with regard to their radiation protection properties; it applies to radiation protection doors made of steel, wood or wood-based materials. In terms of dimensions, this standard is based on DIN 4172, in which single- and double-leaf revolving doors as well as sliding doors are mentioned. Radiation protection doors are very heavy. The frame, door leaf and, of course, the door hinges and fittings all have to withstand this significant loading.
