Visitors are issued a TRIUMF access card for the Main Office Building (MOB) and the TRIUMF badge room gate to allow access to the experimental beam area. In addition, all visitors are required to have a radiation badge or a direct-reading dosimeter (DRD) for access to the TRIUMF beam area.
Open-toed shoes (i.e.: sandals) are NOT ALLOWED in the experimental area.

Strong magnetic fields are present in certain areas of the laboratory. Notify your TRIUMF contact if you wear an embedded medical device such as a pacemaker, cochlear implants, etc.

The visitor WiFi network covers only the control room areas and is not available in the experimental rooms.  If any of the equipment under test needs to be connected to the internet, plan for a wired connection.  Send the MAC addresses of all devices that will need a wired ethernet connection at least 1 week before arrival, to allow time for them to be registered onto the network.
