Description Of  Lead Lined Waste Shielding Container

The Lead Lined Waste Shielding Container is like a super-strong trash can for hospitals. It’s used to safely hold all the yucky radioactive stuff that comes from treating patients with nuclear medicine or radiotherapy. This includes things like used syringes, gloves, old protective clothes, cotton swabs, gauze, and even the trash from cancer patients.

These containers are made from tough stainless steel and thick lead, which blocks the harmful radiation. They have a special double-layered opening at the top. There’s a small lid with a handle that you can turn by hand to throw in small waste or sharp objects. There’s also a big lid with a foot pedal that uses special springs to open and close smoothly. This way, healthcare workers can quickly and safely get rid of radioactive waste without touching the lid with their hands.

Features Of  Lead Lined Waste Shielding Container

Efficient shielding: High-density lead material is used, and the lead equivalent is usually 3–50 mmPb, which effectively blocks gamma rays and beta rays to ensure radiation protection safety.

Strong and durable: The shell is made of 304 or 316L stainless steel, which is corrosion-resistant, impact-resistant and has a long service life.

Double-layer design: Double-wall structure, inner lead shielding, outer stainless steel protection, enhance shielding effect and prevent lead leakage.

Convenient operation: Equipped with a small cover rotating handle and a large cover foot-operated gas spring, it can be operated with one hand or foot, which is convenient for medical staff to quickly put out waste.

Multiple capacities: A variety of specifications (such as 18 L, 27 L, 45 L, 80 L, 150 L, etc.) are available to meet the waste storage needs of different departments.

Easy to move: The bottom is equipped with universal wheels or handles, which is easy to move between departments, corridors and temporary storage areas.

Safety lock: The large cover can be locked to prevent unrelated personnel from contacting radioactive waste, in line with safety management requirements.

Applications Of  Lead Lined Waste Shielding Container

In the PET center, nuclear medicine department, and radiotherapy ward, radioactive syringes, gloves, cotton balls, patient excrement, etc. are first placed in this "lead box" and then transported together or left to decay, keeping radiation away from medical staff and the public.
