Robust aluminium RF cages for scanning facilities

During 2014, WARDRAY PREMISE manufactured 23 RF cages. This included installations at Lancashire Royal Infirmary, Addenbrookes Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital. The Wardray cage is a robust, self-supporting structure, made from high grade aluminium. It has a five year guarantee for attenuation.

Each cage is bespoke, designed to suit individual host rooms and can be any size or shape. Wardray was also involved with the facility that won the Clinician’s Choice Award at the 16th Building Better Healthcare Awards. The winner was Sonnemann Toon Architects for the European Scanning Centre in Harley Street, London. 

The centre accommodates a scanner that is both open and upright. This allows patient imaging in an upright position. 

Full weight bearing images can be obtained, whether sitting or standing, thus enhancing the accuracy of the report. Wardray’s work was behind the scenes, designing, manufacturing and installing the RF cage for this scanner. 

Wardray’s expertise ensured that Sonnemann Toon Architects’ design, with ‘egg shaped’ room and sculptured walls, was realised with the shielding work. This project was complicated and challenging, but the results were impressive.
