Phillips Safety Mobile Leaded Barrier | 2.0mm PbEq Protection with 36" x 30" Large Viewing Window

The Phillips Safety Mobile Leaded Barrier provides a certified 2.0mm Pb lead equivalency, delivering four times the attenuation of standard lightweight shields. This higher density is specifically engineered to protect personnel from the increased scatter radiation levels found in fluoroscopy, interventional radiology, and orthopedic surgery suites. By utilizing 1/16" solid lead sheeting and high-density lead glass, the barrier ensures that transmitted doses remain well within ALARA safety margins. This rating simplifies radiation safety audits by meeting or exceeding the most stringent institutional and NRC requirements. Investing in 2.0mm PbEq shielding is a proactive measure for long-term occupational health and facility risk management.

With an overall width of 39.5 inches and a 75-inch height, this barrier is designed to pass through standard hospital doorways while providing expansive shielding. The four medical-grade swivel casters are specifically rated to handle the significant weight of the 2.0mm PbEq lead glass, ensuring smooth transport across medical flooring. Facility managers should ensure that the intended deployment zones have adequate floor load capacity for high-density mobile lead assets. Once in position, the 360-degree rotation allows for precise placement to create a comprehensive radiation shadow for staff. The locking caster mechanism ensures the unit remains immobile during active imaging procedures for consistent safety.

The expansive 36" x 30" window provides one of the largest viewing areas available in a mobile barrier, providing technicians with superior optical clarity and an undistorted field of view. This massive viewing area allows for continuous monitoring of the patient and procedural equipment without having to step outside the protected zone. Enhanced situational awareness is critical in high-acuity environments like hybrid ORs or trauma bays, where clinician visibility directly impacts patient safety. The lead glass maintains superior optical clarity over time, resisting the yellowing or crazing often associated with acrylic radiation shields. This design ensures that personnel can perform complex tasks with confidence and visual precision.

This mobile leaded barrier is 100% latex-free and constructed with non-porous materials that are fully compatible with rigorous institutional disinfection standards. The powder-coated steel frame and lead glass viewing window are designed to withstand frequent exposure to quaternary ammonium and bleach-free disinfectants without structural or optical degradation. Its smooth, seamless design minimizes areas where bio-contaminants can accumulate, facilitating rapid turnaround between cases. The high-durability finish is also chip-resistant, ensuring that the structural steel remains protected from the moisture of daily cleaning cycles. These features make it a reliable asset for infection control managers overseeing high-turnover diagnostic and surgical departments.

The Phillips Safety Mobile Leaded Barrier offers an exceptional return on investment (ROI) by providing a mobile, high-capacity shielding solution that can replace multiple smaller units. Its heavy-duty steel construction and replaceable medical-grade casters ensure a service life exceeding a decade, significantly lowering the long-term cost per procedure. For procurement officers, the 2.0mm PbEq rating offers a "future-proof" solution that remains compliant even if the facility upgrades to higher-powered imaging technology in the future. The mobility of the unit allows it to be shared between different departments, maximizing asset utilization and reducing the need for permanent lead-lined wall modifications. This results in a much lower TCO compared to the combined costs of individual personal protective equipment and structural shielding.
