This section shows single or mixed radionuclide sources
which have been developed to check the correct functioning
of radiation measurement equipment such as surface contamination
monitors, survey dosimeters and personal dosimeters.
Applications:
All radiation detection instruments should be checked daily
to ensure that they are working correctly. These daily checks
are sometimes obligatory under national regulations. The sources
in this section offer a cost-effective and convenient method
to perform functionality checks on the following types of
instrument:
- Portable contamination monitors
- Survey dosimeters: pages
Note: These sources are uncalibrated and can only be used
for checking that the instrument is operating correctly and
is stable.
