PROTECTION FROM THE EFFECT OF RADIO WAVES

Powerful devices which emit electromagnetic energy are being widely introduced at the plants of the shipbuilding industry and in the maritime fleet. In connection with this development, new and complex problems are arising with respect to labor safety procedures for the people who service these devices. This paper is the first effort to generalize data gathered by the author on labor conditions of workers who tune, regulate, test and operate high-frequency and superhigh-frequency devices. The purpose of the book is to discuss radiation sources, familiarize the reader with methods of measuring radiation, and present an idea of possible intensities of irradiation during various types of operations and its biological effects. Primary attention has been given to selecting effective measures for protection from irradiation by radio waves. (Author)
