24、OF RADIOACTIVITY IN GASEOUS EFFLUENTS Part 4: Specific requirements for radioactive iodine monitors FOREWORD 1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The objec
25、t of the IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC Natio
26、nal Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization
27、 (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has represen
28、tation from all interested National Committees. 3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 4) In ord
29、er to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International. Standards transparently to the maximum extend possible in their national and regional standards. Any divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be
30、 clearly indicated in the latter. 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards. 6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International St
31、andard may be the subject of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60761-4 has been prepared by subcommittee 45B: Radiation protection instrumentation, of IEC technical committee 45: Nuclear instrumentation. Thi
32、s standard shall be read in conjunction with IEC 60761-1 (2002). This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1983, of which it constitutes a technical revision. The text of this standard is based on the first edition, and the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 45

37、 Specific requirements for radioactive iodine monitors 1 Scope and object This part of IEC 60761 is applicable to equipment intended for the simultaneous, delayed or discrete sequential measurement of radioactive iodine in all forms. When the effluent is sampled for measurement, iodine bound on aero
38、sols is generally collected on a prefilter which should be analyzed separately in a laboratory to provide a complete measurement. It is applicable to equipment designed to fulfill the following functions: the measurement of the volumic activity of iodine and compounds of radioactive iodine in gaseou
39、s effluents or of the released iodine total activity; the actuation of an alarm signal when either a predetermined concentration or a predetermined total released activity due to iodine or its compounds is exceeded. This equipment is intended for measurement over a wide range of activity in the pres
40、ence of other radionuclides in the gaseous effluent, including naturally occurring radioactive nuclides. Discrimination against other radionuclides can be important in measuring low levels of radioactive iodine. This standard considers both the use of iodine collection media such as activated charco
41、al and the direct measurement of iodine in stacks or ventilation ducts. The object of this standard is to lay down specific standard requirements, including technical characteristics and general test conditions, and to give examples of acceptable methods for iodine monitors as defined in clause 4. T
42、he general requirements, technical characteristics, test procedures, radiation characteristics, electrical, mechanical, safety and environmental characteristics are given in IEC 60761-1. Unless otherwise stated, these requirements apply in this standard. 2 Normative references The following normativ
43、e documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC 60761. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this part of IEC 60761 are encourage
44、d to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below.

It may also be classified according to the method of operation, for example: eq
