2.1 Applications & Specifications
The filters and accessories are available individually or as a set (57-445). The 57-445 CLEAR-Pb X-Ray
Compensation Filter Set includes a multi-purpose AP/PA wedge filter (72" FFD), a lateral cervical filter, a
lateral thoracic filter, a pediatric and adult gonad shield, a breast shield assembly, two AP/PA build-up
filters (one thick, one thin), a filter holder, and two mounting plates. A 40" FFD AP/PA wedge Filter is
optional. Filters purchased individually require a filter holder (56-426) to make them compatible with the x-
ray collimator. One filter holder (with mounting plates) is recommended for each x-ray machine. All Filters
have magnetic mounting strips at each end to attach to the matching steel rails on the filter holder.
