Overview
30、 Scope The purpose of this standard is to specify performance criteria and test methods used to evaluate portable radiation detection instruments. These instruments are used for detection of photon-emitting radioactive materials and quantification of photon exposure rates. Instruments are used for t
31、he purposes of detection, interdiction, and prevention. This standard does not apply to instruments that are primarily intended to provide a measurement of dose equivalent, or dose equivalent rate. Purpose The purpose of this standard is to specify technical performance requirements and performance
32、testing requirements for those purchasing and using portable radiation detectors for Homeland Security applications.
