Safety Storage

The Lemer Pax Safety Storage range of shielded laboratory furniture is designed to provide safety and efficiency within the service. Compact and functional, it adapts to all needs: storage, containment and decay of radioactive sources and waste of all energies.

Safety storage range: modular and versatile

Extremely modular and versatile, seven different configurations are possible:

• Meuble de préparation
• Meuble de stockage et de décroissance
• Meuble de rinçage et de gestion des déchets
• Meuble de stockage et de décroissance avec compartiment poubelle
• Meuble de décroissance
• Meuble de stockage
• Meuble de gestion des déchets

It can be installed against walls and partitions. In order to integrate perfectly into your premises and adapt to your applications.

The robust design, made of high quality stainless steel, allows easy and quick maintenance with the hygiene and decontamination products. Thus, available in hospitals, without altering the quality of the furniture over time.

The brushed stainless steel exterior finish and the drip-proof draining system provide an aesthetic and hygienic appearance for the various units and their work surfaces, which are suitable for all handling operations and applications.

Safety Storage units are lockable to ensure secure and restricted access to radioactive sources when required.

With a maximum shielding of 25 mm of lead, all models offer optimal radiation protection for users. All seven configurations are also available in 6 mm and 12 mm shielding to suit all laboratory requirements, size and weight constraints.

The four height-adjustable feet allow the shielded unit of your choice to be stabilised and to fit in with the existing elements in the room or laboratory.

L-Block range compatibility

All the shielded furniture models in the Safety Storage range are compatible with the L-Block range of radiation shields. The combination of these two product ranges offers users versatile and secure working and storage environments, with considerable space optimisation, while guaranteeing appropriate radiation protection for the radioactive sources handled. The great modularity of these two product families allows the creation of customised sets adapted to the specific applications of each service.

7 different configurations

• Preparation unit

The preparation unit is composed of two symmetrical and independent shielded compartments, each equipped with two shelves. Thus creating three levels available for the storage of sources, consumables and accessories. A large, hygienic stainless steel work surface, perfectly smooth with anti-drip draining system, can accommodate an inclined shielded window for safe handling of benchtop operations.

• Storage and decay cabinet

Composed of a large work surface with a drip-proof draining system. It can carry out all the operations to be performed on the benchtop. It is equipped with 4 independent, lockable, shielded drawers for the storage of radioactive sources on the left side. The right-hand compartment, lockable, features two shelves, creating three separate, wide levels. They can be used for decaying radioactive sources and stock solutions at the end of their use.

• Rinsing and waste management unit

Equipped with a sink and an elbow-operated medical mixer tap, it represents a versatile configuration in the Safety Storage range. The hot sink can be connected to the service’s liquid waste storage room. It allows contaminated water to be channelled into the radioactive decay tanks, when soaking for disinfection and decontamination of syringe shields or when washing users’ hands, for example. This shielded unit also features a shielded cover on the work surface. And can be used to access a PIMW collector for used needles, syringes or vials, positioned underneath. The two lockable compartments, located under the work surface, are equipped with two shelves each. It provides users with ample storage capacity.

• Storage and decay unit with waste compartment

On the left, it has a set of four independent, lockable, shielded drawers for the secure storage of radioactive sources. On the right, a very large lockable compartment also allows the positioning of a large capacity container for potentially infectious medical waste (PIMW), for example. It provides direct access to the work surface, which is enclosed by a shielded cover, thus limiting the exposure of users during benchtop operations.

• Decay unit

The decay unit is a compact, functional, space-saving and versatile shielded unit. It is a perfect alternative to the usual source storage cabinet. It provides a handling space with a hygienic work surface with an anti-drip draining system as well as a secure storage space on three levels for constancy sources and other radioactive preparations and stock solutions.

• Storage unit

The storage unit is dedicated to the secure containment of radioactive sources for services handling many different radioactive isotopes. It consists of nine independent shielded sliding lockable drawers. It is more functional than a standard storage system, thanks to its size and large storage capacity, and also offers a large, flat preparation area, for improved user comfort on a daily basis.

• Waste management unit

The waste management unit is a compact shielded module that can accommodate very large containers including potentially infectious medical waste containers (PIMW). Access for the insertion of contaminated waste is facilitated by a trap door positioned on the work surface, and fitted with a shielded cap. The large, resistant work surface can also accommodate the PRA and Medisharp shielded needle bins to facilitate the sorting of the service’s various waste materials.
