Radiation protection instrumentation - X-ray systems for the security screening of persons

IEC 62463:2024 is applicable to security screening systems designed to expose persons to X?rays. In particular, the document applies to systems where the body is exposed to the primary beam of X-rays. It is common to divide currently used systems into three types: backscatter systems, transmission systems and combination backscatter/transmission systems. The purpose of this document is to provide standardized requirements and test methods to ensure the safe operation of X-ray personnel screening systems, from a radiation protection point of view. In particular, the document specifies requirements related to the radiation protection of the persons being screened, persons who are in the vicinity of the equipment and the operators.This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2010. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) title modified;b) the main dose quantity was updated from ambient dose equivalent (H*(10)) to the operational quantities recommended in ICRU Report 95:2020;c) the scope has been updated from X-ray systems for screening persons to X-ray systems that deliberately expose persons to X-rays for security purposes, which clarifies the ambiguity of whether d) occupied vehicle scanners are within scope;d) the scheme for classifying systems was changed from one based on whether the system is backscatter, transmission or a combination to a classification system based on the dose level and administrative controls;e) numerous electrical, environmental, electromagnetic, and mechanical safety requirements were updated.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2010. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) title modified;
b) the main dose quantity was updated from ambient dose equivalent (H*(10)) to the operational quantities recommended in ICRU Report 95:2020;
c) the scope has been updated from X-ray systems for screening persons to X-ray systems that deliberately expose persons to X-rays for security purposes, which clarifies the ambiguity of whether d) occupied vehicle scanners are within scope;
d) the scheme for classifying systems was changed from one based on whether the system is backscatter, transmission or a combination to a classification system based on the dose level and administrative controls;
e) numerous electrical, environmental, electromagnetic, and mechanical safety requirements were updated.
