Now security equipment has played a very big role in different fields, more industries are using it to detect prohibited items, as well as some small metal items, etc., when used, you will see two rows of lead curtains on both sides of the equipment channel. Why do manufacturers install lead curtains on X-ray security screening machines?

In fact, many people do not understand his operating principle, and after knowing his principle, they will know why they should install lead curtains on both sides of the equipment channel. Next, Tian Yan will explain how he works. X-ray machine detection equipment is a kind of detection machine that presents the image of the object after the conversion of the X-ray through the object. Speaking of X-rays, as many of you know, X-rays are radiating.

Because X-rays cannot penetrate lead materials, manufacturers use lead curtains to block radiation to avoid radiation leakage and harm to the human body. The light source component inside the X-ray machine is the X-ray emitter. According to the national regulations, the radiation dose of the X-ray security inspection machine should not exceed 5 microsiv before leaving the factory, which does not have any harm to the human body.

After understanding his working principle, we also know why the manufacturer will install lead curtains on both sides of the equipment channel, and when the items go through the security check, do not open the lead curtains to take the items before they have been tested, and the items are being tested when the light source is emitting X-rays through the items, and when the radiation is strong. Once or twice once in a while is not going to make a difference, if you do it often when you go through security, it will have a certain impact.

These are the reasons why manufacturers install lead curtains on the X-ray security inspection machine equipment, lead curtains are not penetrable by X-rays, so manufacturers use him to block radiation. I believe that after you understand, you will not use your hand to open the lead curtain to take luggage items when you go through the security check.
