Lightweight lead technology: performance with reduced weight

The OPTIX jacket incorporates lightweight lead technology, based on partial lead substitution, offering:
- 20?30% weight reduction compared to standard materials
- improved comfort during prolonged wear
- reduced strain on shoulders and back

It ensures effective protection within a 50 to 110 kV operating range, aligned with common radiology practices.

High-performance anti-X protection

The lightweight lead material provides high attenuation of ionizing radiation, validated according to international standards.

Available lead equivalences
- 0.25 mm Pb: lightweight protection
- 0.35 / 0.25 mm Pb: standard intensive use
- 0.50 / 0.25 mm Pb: enhanced protection

Attenuation performance (IEC 61331-1)
- up to 99.85% attenuation at 60 kV (0.50 mm Pb)
- over 92% at 110 kV (0.35 mm Pb)
- excellent shielding efficiency across the full operating range

Regulatory compliance in radiation protection

The Uniray OPTIX jacket meets the most stringent requirements:
