To better support anyone undertaking a radiation-related project, Raybloc has expanded its network of trusted RPAs. While all assessments are carried out independently by qualified professionals, we can now help you obtain an RPA report quickly and efficiently, making the process simple and straightforward.
Under the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017 (IRR17), you are required to consult an RPA if your project involves:
- X-ray equipment (medical, dental, veterinary)
- CT scanners or advanced imaging systems
- Industrial radiography or NDT applications
- Radioactive materials or sealed sources
- Installation or modification of radiation-generating equipment
If your project includes any of the above, an RPA report is required for compliance.

An RPA provides formal advice to ensure your project is safe, compliant, and correctly specified:
- Radiation shielding calculations
- Controlled and supervised area designation
- Radiation risk assessments
- Prior examination of new installations
- Compliance with IRR17 requirements
- Advice on exposure limits and safety measures
This ensures your design is compliant from the outset, avoiding costly changes later.

- During early design and planning
- Before installing X-ray or CT equipment
- When modifying an existing facility
- Before applying for regulatory approval
The earlier you involve an RPA, the smoother your project will run.
Why This Matters
Without proper RPA input:
- Projects can be delayed due to non-compliance
- Shielding may be incorrectly specified
- Additional costs can arise from redesign
- Regulatory approval may be refused
Getting this right early avoids unnecessary delays and costs
