TS-100 aspirated radiation shields come partially pre-assembled and have few parts, facilitating easy
transport, deployment, and maintenance.
Avoid placing the shield near buildings, paved surfaces, or any other locations which may create a micro-
environment significantly different than ambient environment. The World Meteorological Organization
(WMO) recommends a mounting height of 1.25 to 2 meters above ground. Air temperature typically
decreases with increasing height above the ground surface.

The shield is designed to
hang from a standard IPS
horizontal pipe ranging from
1¼ inch (32 mm) to 2 inch (51

bolt, nuts, and rubber washers
provided (see diagram at left).
Then, insert the shorter
