SIS SS-ISO 8769:1990 Reference sources for the calibration of sur- face contamination monitors — Beta-emit- ters (maximum beta energy greater than 0,15 MeV) and alpha-emitters
This International Standard specifies the characteristics of reference sources of radioactive surface contamination, traceable to national measurement standards, for the calibra-tion of surface contamination monitors. This International Standard relates to alpha-emitters and to beta-emitters of maximum beta energy greater than 0,15 MeV. It does not describe the procedures involved in the use of these reference sources for the calibration of surface contamination monitors. Such procedures are specified in IEC Publication 325 and other documents.
This International Standard specifies reference radiations for the calibration of surface contamination monitors which take the form of adequately characterized large area sources specified, without exception, in terms of activity and surface emission rate, the evaluation of these quantities being traceable to national standards.
