Faxitron Safety
All Faxitron systems have shielded cabinets and utilize redundant safety interlocks. No NRC site licensing or reporting is required. They are certified to comply with standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and Radiological Health, (21 CFR-1020.40). To learn more about cabinet x-ray safety, download the FAQs formerly found on the FDA's website. Imaging systems are classified by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. in the U.S. and Canada, with respect to electrical fire, shock, and mechanical hazards.
