Environmental Question:

14" HP CRT Monitor model D2821-60501

Dear all,

This is concerned about human health. My question is we are having 2 units of HP servers and now
they are being located in next to our boss's room.

All i would like to enquiry is about the radiation being transmitted from the 2 monitors. For your
information, his seat is facing back to the 2 monitors with a piece of asbestos material being
located in the between his seat and the 2 monitor as wall.

I wonder if the radiation from the monitors would transmit and spread over to my boss's sitting
area and cause a unwanted health problem because he would be sitting there for a long time.

Will the radiation be around if the 2 monitors are in the state of being power off?.

If they are switched on, will that be transmited to my boss's sitting area next room?

I hope u could enlighten me because i am not in that field of working. If uou can't help, pls
point me to right good forum . Your feedback is appreciated. Thanks

YEONG, Best Regards

The way you describe the sitation..I doubt if ANY "radiation" poisoning would ever take place.
The only way a "monitor" can be dangerous is IF one is looking directly at it at VERY close
range. The PHOTONS are extemely short light swave and usually are harmless within 36"...anything
closer is suspect! I'd make a safety zone of 4 feet ( 3.3 meters) were I you. Dr.R.McCarty ph.D
