Leading the way in the custom design, engineering and fabrication of shielding and temporary storage for Low Level Radioactive Waste (LLRW). Providing the Nuclear Power Industry, DOE, DOD and other governmental agencies, engineered product designs and fabrication of radiation shielding and LLRW containers that are: Modular, Reusable and cost effective.

SAM 9 Shields
Specially designed to reduce employee downtime and to maximize efficiency by reducing background radiation levels at the Small Article Monitor. Unique design is easily portable. All stainless steel with an attractive finish.
Secure Environmental Containers (SEC's)

For temporary storage of Low Level Radioactive Waste. Optimized cylindrical and rectangular configurations. Shielding thickness from 4 to over 24 inches. "SEC" capacities to over 1300 cubic feet. 2, 3 & 5 modular piece assemblies to match site crane capacity.

Modular Water Shields
All stainless steel construction. Ease of mobility for use anywhere. Vent and fill/drain hole on top and optional drain port on bottom. Visual water level indicator.
Window Water Shields
Rugged stainless steel tank with acrylic window on top half. Shielding equivalent of 1.5" lead (more available if required). Corner eyebolts for easy lifting when empty. Casters lower the shield to floor level when filled to eliminate "toe shine".
Ball and Socket Shields
Constructed of steel reinforced concrete with cylindrical ends that permit the shield to be positioned at angles up to 45 degrees relative to each other. Interlocking ends significantly reduce any streaming at interface points. Carbon steel "straps" function as stabilizer plates. Also available as stainless steel water shields.
Doublewal™
Walls are constructed of hollow concrete blocks then backfilled with gravel or soil. These may be used to shield sources of radiation in storage. Almost any height, width and shielding thickness is available.
Modular Shield Logs
Our standard size measures one foot square by eight feet in length and weighs approximately 1,200 pounds. Stepped interlocking design reduces streaming at the adjoining log seam. Can be stacked to construct a shield wall. Two threaded inserts facilitate lifting. Available painted or unpainted.
Drum Shields
When doorways, elevators, floor drains and other obstacles make moving LLW from place to place a challenge, consider a 30 or 55 gallon Drum Shield. Reusable, transportable either by crane, built in casters or fork truck, the Drum Shield offers an inexpensive way to transfer LLW.
Sample Storage Shields
Constructed of 11 gauge stainless steel and lead, for durability and ease of decontamination. Used for storage during characterization and testing of LLRW samples. Attractive, safe approach to shielding. Standard model offers stainless steel lockable hinged door which provides access to the 8"x12"x24" internal area. Other sizes designed to suit your needs.
Frisker Caves
To get an accurate reading of small tools and routinely used articles; to cut down background radiation, count time, and exposed lead bricks, use the Dufrane Frisker Cave. Standard model inside dimensions: 8" wide 13.75" deep 8" high. Lead bricks are used to surround internal cavity.
Process Shields
Generally cylindrical steel reinforced concrete container. A fully removable lid with central port/plug for process equipment. The shields are sized to accept standard HIC's. Special units are available as modular panels where access, size or weight restrictions are specified.
