Özet |
The Active personal dosemeter (APD) developed by Cekmece Nuclear Research and Training Center/Nuclear Electronic Laboratory (CNRTC/NEL) was calibrated at the reference radiation quality (Cs-137). The performance tests were carried out with Cs-137, Co-60 and X-ray beam qualities in compliance with the standards of International Organization for Standardization ISO4037-1,3 and The International Electrotechnical Commission, IEC61526:2010. Response of the personal dose equivalent was observed to be within the range from -7.6% to +4.2%. The dose equivalent rates were observed with the maximum deviation -26.8% for 0.1 mSv h(-1) and within the range from -2.3% to + 10.1% for dose rates over 0.5 mSv h(-1). It is found that the APDs have lower readings up to 50% for 33 keV photons and perform a distribution in the acceptable limits for over 33 keV. Angular dependence was tested at 0 degrees, +/- 30 degrees and +/- 60 degrees in orthogonal plane and the angular dependence of the APDs is within acceptable limits except N40. |
