Uniray OPTIX Lightweight Lead Wraparound Apron

Ergonomic anti-X protection with lumbar support and enhanced comfort
A wraparound apron designed for long procedures

The Uniray OPTIX lightweight lead wraparound apron has been developed to meet the demands of radiology environments where both exposure duration and user comfort are critical.

Its partial frontal overlap design ensures effective protection against scattered radiation while maintaining good freedom of movement. The integrated lumbar support significantly improves comfort during prolonged use.

Lightweight lead technology: reducing physical strain

The lightweight lead material incorporates partial lead substitution, reducing the overall weight of the apron while maintaining high radiation protection performance.

This technology provides:

- a weight reduction of 20 to 30% compared to conventional materials
- improved load distribution
- reduced strain on the back and shoulders

These features enhance working conditions for professionals exposed over extended periods.

Anti-X protection adapted to radiology practices

The OPTIX apron delivers effective protection against ionizing radiation under standard operating conditions.

- operating range: 50 to 110 kV
- high attenuation of scattered radiation
- performance tested according to IEC standards

Attenuation data shows performance levels exceeding 99% at lower energy levels, maintaining strong efficiency up to 110 kV.

Available lead equivalences
- 0.25 mm Pb: lightweight protection
- 0.35 mm / 0.25 mm Pb: standard use
- 0.50 mm / 0.25 mm Pb: enhanced protection
Regulatory compliance in radiation protection

This model complies with the requirements for personal protective equipment in medical environments:

- PPE Category III
- compliant with EU Regulation 2016/425
- CE marking 0120
- conforms to NF EN 61331-3 and IEC 61331-1 standards

These certifications ensure a level of safety aligned with healthcare industry requirements.

Advanced ergonomics with integrated lumbar support

The OPTIX wraparound apron features an ergonomic design focused on user comfort:

- flexible belt providing lumbar support
- optimized weight distribution between shoulders and hips
- thick shoulder padding to reduce pressure points
- design suitable for a wide range of body types

This ergonomic approach helps reduce fatigue and improves posture during long procedures.

Fit and size adaptability

Available in multiple sizes and lengths, the apron ensures precise adjustment for consistent and reliable coverage.

A proper fit is essential to maintain continuous protection and avoid unshielded areas. A sizing guide is available to assist in selecting the most appropriate configuration.

Coatings suitable for healthcare environments

Two finishing options are available:

Nylon provides high resistance to wear and includes antibacterial treatment, making it suitable for intensive use.

Polyurethane offers ease of cleaning, stain resistance, and enhanced comfort, making it ideal for demanding hospital environments.

Clinical use

The partial-overlap wraparound apron is recommended for procedures requiring a balance between protection and mobility.

It is particularly suitable for interventional procedures and environments where prolonged wear requires enhanced ergonomic performance.

Customization options

Optional features include:

- internal dosimeter pocket
- chest pocket
- thyroid shield attachment
- custom embroidery or identification
