Is the radiation of x-ray fluorescence analyzer harmful to human body?
There are two main types of X-ray fluorescence analyzers, one is energy dispersive and one is wavelength dispersive. First: energy dispersive X-rays have a low-power X-ray tube or radioactive sources, now generally there will be no problem, especially X-ray tube X-rays, there will be no problem, but with a radioactive source to pay attention to the protection of the second: wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, especially now a few kilowatts of the instrument, in the installation, maintenance, pay attention to the point, there will not be a problem in the usual use of the problem! Not much harm. If operated properly, the harm is almost negligible. First of all, the equipment itself should already come with a shielding device for rays. For example, protective lead plates and lead glass, and secondly, the tube head should have a light gate or shield or something like that, and the main irradiation surface should be airtight. As for the part of the leakage and dispersion, the measurement is smaller relative to the surface to be irradiated, and the wavelength becomes longer. The harm to the human body can be considered smaller. If you are still not sure, unit related equipment should be similar to the side of the lead screen and other protective equipment, hide behind it is more foolproof. x-rays will not turn. If you're not sure, turn on the computer and run, run to 20 meters accidentally ~ ~ ~ and then it's safe. According to reason, ray detection is considered a high-risk industry special types of work, should be a yearly physical examination. But do fluorescence personnel irradiated by the annual effective dose equivalent many times there is no possibility of exceeding the line of 5mSv, not at all high-risk ...... not to mention, the atmosphere itself is the existence of x-ray radiation ...... words although this is said, after marriage from the intention to It's a good idea to stay away from that stuff for a little while after marriage, from the time you plan to get pregnant. It is said that the first trimester of conception seems to be more dangerous as long as you don't turn on the ray tuning crystals as well as turn on the instrument panel and artificially meet the safety interlocking device conditions to turn on the rays, you usually won't be harmed. If you are still unsure, you can remove the scintillation counter from its fixed position on the instrument, turn on the X-rays to full capacity, hold the scintillation counter and move it along the gap in the instrument panel (about an inch from the panel), and if the counts are no greater than 10/S, then it's safe
