Sumario:Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to estimate the radiation levels at the positions where BDI electronics will be installed in IR4. Special shielding was necessary to protect the synchrotron radiation telescope and its electronics. The shielding proposed by this study assures a reduction of more than two orders of magnitude at the position of the BDI synchrotron radiation (SR) monitors, reaching a value of ~10 Gy per year.
