The front opening/ split top is a full 10 cm (4 inch) lead shield to provide the best possible shielding and most convenience for sample loading. The shield includes a rigid stand with adjustable feet to maintain the unit level while allowing easy access to install or remove the detector. The A360 exterior and stand are coated with durable epoxy paint. All copper components are coated with a clear polyurethane sealer to prevent corrosion.
