The actual thicknes

38、s of a TRANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATE shall not be less than the minimum thickness over its entire area. BS EN 61331-2:2014IEC 61331-2:2014 IEC 2014 7 The minimum thickness of TRANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATES shall be indicated in units of millimetres (mm). NOTE The minimum thickness of the plate over it

39、s entire area is relevant for the effectiveness of RADIATION PROTECTION. 4.2 Edges The edges of PROTECTIVE GLASS PLATES shall be chamfered. 5 Optical quality of material 5.1 Inhomogeneities Streaks, bubbles, inhomogeneities and faults of the surface which prevent optical clarity should not occur. 5.

40、2 Transmittance PROTECTIVE GLASS PLATES shall have a TRANSMITTANCE equal to or greater than 80 % at a glass thickness of 10 mm for light of a wavelength of 550 nm. The UNCERTAINTY of test methods for determination of TRANSMITTANCE shall not exceed 2 %. This UNCERTAINTY applies to a CONFIDENCE LEVEL

41、of 95 %. 6 ATTENUATION properties 6.1 Determination of LEAD EQUIVALENT NOTE The RADIATION PROTECTION shielding needed for a special purpose is usually estimated in thickness of lead. Therefore it is necessary to know the LEAD EQUIVALENT of the TRANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATE. The LEAD EQUIVALENT of a T

42、RANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATE shall be determined and specified according to the methods described in IEC 61331-1. LEAD EQUIVALENT shall be measured by use of the NARROW BEAM CONDITION or BROAD BEAM CONDITION for appropriate standard RADIATION QUALITIES chosen from Tables 1 and 2 of IEC 61331-1. If a

43、measurement is not possible because of a lack of suitable radiation sources, e.g. for special photon-emitting RADIONUCLIDES, they shall be calculated according to the methods described in IEC 61331-1. The chosen condition shall be indicated according to 6.4 and Clause 7, whereby N stands for NARROW

44、BEAM CONDITION, B stands for BROAD BEAM CONDITION and C is used in case of calculated LEAD EQUIVALENT . Both conditions are allowed, but the end user has to decide which condition is the most suitable one for its application for RADIATION PROTECTION shielding. 6.2 Homogeneity The value of the LEAD E

45、QUIVALENT shall not be less than the specified value over the entire area of a TRANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATE. 6.3 Minimum thickness and LEAD EQUIVALENT NOTE 1 TRANSLUCENT PROTECTIVE PLATES are usually ordered by their LEAD EQUIVALENT. Therefore it is useful to know the relation between a given minimu

46、m thickness and the corresponding LEAD EQUIVALENT. The ratio of the LEAD EQUIVALENT as determined according to 6.1 and the minimum thickness as determined according to 4.1 of a PROTECTIVE GLASS PLATE shall not be less than 0,22 for all RADIATION QUALITIES listed in Table 1 of IEC 61331-1 with X-RAY

47、TUBE VOLTAGES 50 kV to 150 kV. Examples of minimum thicknesses and their LEAD EQUIVALENT are given in Table 1. BS EN 61331-2:2014 8 IEC 61331-2:2014 IEC 2014 NOTE 2 The exact value of the ratio of the LEAD EQUIVALENT and the minimum thickness of a PROTECTIVE GLASS PLATE depends on the RADIATION QUAL
