Radiation protection instrumentation - Recommended climatic, electromagnetic and mechanical performance requirements and methods of tests

IEC 62706:2019 recommends the climatic, mechanical and electromagnetic performance requirements and methods of test for radiation protection instrumentation. This document also provides guidance regarding the setup of test equipment and instruments under test (IUT) for certain tests.The object of this document is to define, for design and test purposes, the environments in which radiation protection instrumentation may be exposed. The environments addressed by this document are applicable to body-worn (e.g., personal radiation detectors, backpack, and dosemeters), handheld, transportable, mobile, and installed instrumentation.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, issued in 2012. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) addition of more details to selected methods of test;b) revised radio frequency testing requirements based on measurements made at various locations;c) added equipment and instrument setup guidance and recommendations.

Radiation protection instrumentation - Environmental, electromagnetic and mechanical performance requirements

IEC 62706:2012 establishes the environmental, mechanical and electromagnetic performance requirements and methods of test for radiation protection instrumentation. The object of this standard is to define, for design and test purposes, the environments in which radiation protection instrumentation may be exposed. The environments addressed by this standard are applicable to body-worn (e.g., personal radiation detectors, backpack, and dosemeters), hand carried, portable and transportable, mobile, or installed instrumentation.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
