RECOMMENDATIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF USE

The recommendations given below are general and may be subjected to local statutory or safety /use.
Procedures mandated within your facility. If in doubt about proper usage or garment protection values, consult your Radiation INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Safety Officer or a qualified radiations physicist or radiologist. Their advice will minimize total dose based on equipment,
kV, filtration, procedure, exposure time, distance, scatter and other important factors. It is proper practice, at a minimum, to
wear at least one personal dosimeter inside the garment at chest level; preferred practice may require a further abdomen
dosimeter, worn inside, and/or a further chest dosimeter worn outside-usually on the chest pocket. INFAB X-RAY PROTECTION APRON

FIT & SIZING Male Frames Female Frames
For comfort and protection you must wear the right size/fit garment. The aprons and vests are separately patterned in MALE
or FEMALE categories. The FEMALE fit has a much smaller armhole, providing supertior breast protection from side radiation.

or over- sizing may provide inadequate body coverage, may be uncomfortable, may stress or damage seams or material, may
be extra heavy and on a repeated basis, may lead to premature cracking of the core sheets. Infab’s alphabetic sizing code, fully Vest Length

USE & LIMITS OF USE
Infab radiation protection garments provide individual personal protection against external x-ray (photon) radiation up to 120 kV,
with beam HVL at 6.2 mm AI. Above these kV/HVL values, lead-equivalency protection values (mm Pb) may be less.
Under most conditions of gamma exposure, the composite nature of the Smart Armor core materials invalidates the lead equiv-
