L-Block Shield with Built-In Dose Calibrator

Compact L-Block shield with integrated dose calibrator shielding designed to maximize space and improve workflow in high-energy radionuclide preparation areas.


Key features and benefits




  • Integrated dose calibrator shield – eliminates the need for separate interlocking shielding rings




  • Compact L-Block design – maximizes workspace in hot labs with limited space




  • Built-in calibration chamber shield – provides shielding for through-mounted dose calibrator chambers




  • Designed for high-energy nuclides such as FDG F-18 – supports PET and high-activity workflows




  • Countertop through-mount configuration – allows chamber installation directly through the work surface (customer responsible for installation)




  • Compatible with Atomlab chambers and many others – accommodates multiple chamber types (verify fit per specifications)




  • Lead encased in steel construction – provides structural durability and shielding integrity




  • Clear viewing window – allows direct observation of the work area during dose preparation




Product overview


The L-Block Shield with Built-In Dose Calibrator is designed to support efficient dose preparation in facilities handling high-energy radionuclides such as FDG F-18. By integrating a calibration chamber shield directly into the L-Block structure, the unit maximizes usable workspace while reducing the need for separate shielding components.


The built-in shield is designed to accommodate a calibration chamber that is through-mounted in a countertop. This configuration supports direct access to the chamber during workflow. The shield accommodates all Atomlab chambers and many other models; however, chamber specifications should be verified to confirm proper fit. Installation of the through-mounted chamber is the responsibility of the customer.


Because the dose calibrator shielding is integrated into the L-Block, facilities do not need to purchase separate interlocking shielding rings. The unit is constructed of lead encased in steel to support durability and shielding performance in high-activity environments. This product should be specified as part of a broader radiation protection strategy and coordinated with surrounding shielding and workflow requirements.
