WAY OT - Radiation Filters

[system]

Thanks to all of you for your advice. According to OSHA, the real thing
people must worry about in the workplace is making sure the monitor is
slightly lower than your eye-line (unless you wear bi-focals), and that your
keyboard is level with your elbows. Not a peep about radiation from
monitors. You all gave me great advice, websites to check, and something to
laugh about when all around me seemed to be losing their heads.

We printed the OSHA "office environment - ergonomics" info, gave her an
anti-glare screen, documented our attempt to satisfy her request and await
another "shot" across the bow from her doctor.

She is scheduled to get a flat panel monitor in my next upgrade cycle
(Jan-Feb), so that will put the whole thing to bed for once and all.

Sorry I come into this late, but I had gone home when you lot started work!!

Having recently completed a Health & Safety Course in the UK, and also being
a Radiation Protection Supervisor- I would approach this from the view of
she uses a cell phone? Microwave? Does she ever take a plane trip? - and I
understand that the sun is always shining in California!

All of these things will give a higher dose of radiation than sitting in
front of or on top if the VDU Screen!!

Try living in Aberdeen or other places built on granite - the background
levels exceed that of the pile cap of a nuclear power plant.

Ok, it's Friday AND California --

One of our users has "concerns" about the amount of radiation emitting from
her Dell computer monitor--17 in, built in 2001. I'm trying to find a
website with REAL info on this, can't find anything on the Dell site,
although I must admit to a low patience level with this. I keep opening
these things that want to sell me beads (HONEST!) to wear around my neck to
keep the radiation out.

Her doctor suggested she get a "radiation filter" for her computer/monitor.
Anyone familiar with this?

I thought "they" decided about 10 years ago that you get more radiation from
sitting in the sunshine, or from fluorescent lights...

Got any ideas? Cause if she gets some kind of "special something" there are
at least three others who will demand it as well.

Can you get her one of those lead apron's that X-Ray techs use. And I bet
she uses a cell phone.

They exist, but are not cheap...range is like $120 to $180
per monitor.

Flat panel monitors are supposed to emitt less radiation and
actually are less expensive to run (energy cost savings
here).

There are white papers on this if you have to prove to
someone the expense of a flat panel to the expense of a
filter.

Thanks for making some of my users requests/concerns seem less ridiculous.
Just for the comedic effect have you thought about wrapping their monitor in
aluminum foil?

Does this mean we start getting those silly warnings on our monitors
about causing cancer in lab-rats in the state of California? I think
California needs new lab-rats, or needs to stop genetically engineering
them to be more susceptible to cancer :-)

I just HAD to ask you all -- I think replacing her monitor is probably the
easiest thing to do, but it MAKES ME CRAZY!! And the second I replace it,
the two others in her work area will have to have them, too.

Maybe I could try the aluminum foil thing, though...mmmm....

Kidding aside and even though this is pretty much a non-issue, even in monitors made in 2001, it can still be a red herring type HR concern. It raises the specter of workmans comp claims etc... (monitor ruined eye site therefore company has to pay for glasses, etc...). A little ammunition up front can throttle such misguided attempts.

Here is a link to some info from IBM/Lenovo:
http://www.pc.ibm.com/ww/healthycomputing/vdt14.html

Personally I would switch them to an LCD monitor before using any sort of filter. Filters only purport to handle X-Rays anyway and more noise has been made about VLF and ELF electrical fields anyway which filters are not going to handle (and are not a risk anyway but can be perceived so). A decent 17" LCD can be had for under $250. We are gradually switching to all LCD - not for radiation but for lower power, less heat output (althougth in MN in winter that ain't so bad) and less desk space.

Just tell her that as long as she's at least 4 feet away from the Monitor
there is nothing to worry about.



While you're at it switch the resolution to 1280x1024 because when the
images are smaller they put out less radiation .

See if you can find a 15" monitor. That should put out less radiation.

Or maybe just make her an aluminum foil helmet. This has the advantage
of shielding from radiation from UFO's and Black Helicopters as well.

You could explain that her job is being restructured to lessen her exposure
to radiation. Two half time positions sharing the job would put someone
else in the workforce. Sounds like a win - win all around.

to
pull on a fussy user. Little ticking boxes the tick faster close to her,
cover her desk in luminescent material so it glows in the dark. If she
has
a plant on her desk keep switching it to something bigger and bigger. He

Ok, it's Friday AND California --

One of our users has "concerns" about the amount of radiation emitting
from
her Dell computer monitor--17 in, built in 2001. I'm trying to find a
website with REAL info on this, can't find anything on the Dell site,
although I must admit to a low patience level with this. I keep opening
these things that want to sell me beads (HONEST!) to wear around my neck
to
keep the radiation out.

Her doctor suggested she get a "radiation filter" for her
computer/monitor.
Anyone familiar with this?

I thought "they" decided about 10 years ago that you get more radiation
from
sitting in the sunshine, or from fluorescent lights...

Got any ideas? Cause if she gets some kind of "special something" there
are
at least three others who will demand it as well.

Sorry I come into this late, but I had gone home when you lot started work!!

Having recently completed a Health & Safety Course in the UK, and also being
a Radiation Protection Supervisor- I would approach this from the view of
she uses a cell phone? Microwave? Does she ever take a plane trip? - and I
understand that the sun is always shining in California!

All of these things will give a higher dose of radiation than sitting in
front of or on top if the VDU Screen!!

Try living in Aberdeen or other places built on granite - the background
levels exceed that of the pile cap of a nuclear power plant.
