Shielding walls against ionizing radiation - Part 3: Construction of lead hot cells
Abschirmwände gegen ionisierende Strahlung - Teil 3: Errichtung von Heißen Zellen aus Blei
Overview
This document applies for hot cells enclosed by lead shielding and in which radioactive substances are handled. For construction, bricks according to DIN 25407-1 and special construction elements according to DIN 25407-2 are used. With the help of components for contamination protection boxes in accordance with DIN 25480-1, alpha-gamma cells can be constructed. They might involve facilities for experimental and production purposes. See DIN 25420-1 for concrete cells. The document has been prepared by NA 062-07-62 AA "Strahlenschutzeinrichtungen" ("Radiation protection") at the Materials Testing Standards Committee (NMP).
