Custom Product Applications

Rad Shipping Containers

NPO and Eichrom teamed up to launch a Rad Shipping System product for the radiopharmaceutical industry.  We worked closely with PET shipping experts to develop something that meets this industry’s unique needs.  Our emphasis was on durability, optimized shielding, hygienic, minimized footprint, ergonomic, and smooth operation.  Today our systems are used throughout the US. 10-30 […]

Oconee Heat Exchanger Skid Shielding

BEFORE AFTER Oconee Nuclear Station contacted NPO to develop a permanent shielding solution for the Supplemental Spent Fuel Cooling Heat Exchanger. The heat exchanger is located inside the truck bay with one side exposed to the main truck bay door at the Radiologically Controlled Area (RCA) boundary. The ALARA planners at Oconee wanted a permanent […]

Browns Ferry 360-Inspection Platform

Browns Ferry needed durable and effective floor shielding for the trough of their 360 cavity inspection platform. Like with most floor shielding applications, T-Flex® Bismuth was chosen because of its great attenuation properties relative to its cost. On top of the Bismuth shielding was a yellow slip-resistant tread surface to ensure workers would be able […]

Radiography Shielding

Radiography is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique that uses a radioactive source to detect flaws or defects in the internal structures, typically pipes. This testing process requires an “exclusion zone” to keep workers safe, and the use of shielding shrinks that exclusion zone and improves safety and efficiency. NPO T-Flex Bismuth blankets are large and […]

Custom Fit Meter Shielding

Some shielding applications require a precise fit in order to shield effectively. The meter of this instrument was a streaming source for the workers operating it. To fit the area, NPO used drawings of the steel housing and designed T-Flex Tungsten shielding that fit snuggly around the meter. 3D printed molds were used to create […]

Vogtle Reactor Head Shielding

In 2021, Vogtle reached out to NPO to help develop a new shielding package for around the reactor head. Their current system consisted of two rings: one under the head, and one around the outside of the head. Each of these shield rings used 1’ x 6’ (305 mm x 1829 mm) 60 lb (27.2 […]
