Fluorescent Lights in TLD Handling Room



We have a need to move the facility where we change out the TLD cards in our
TLD badges to a room with fluorescent lights. I need the answer to some
questions:

1.	Does anyone know the right kind of fluorescent lights to minimize
the exposure of the TLD cards to UV (they are Harshaw cards with TLD-700
(LiF:Mg,Ti) chips in Teflon)?
2.	Does anyone know of North American suppliers for metric (1160 mm) UV
lights?
3.	What are people's experiences with UV lights for TLD-700?

Thanks in advance
