What is BS IEC 61017 - Transportable, mobile, or installed equipment to measure photon radiation about?

BS IEC 61017 is an international standard that discusses the t ransportable, mobile, or installed equipment to measure photon radiation to ensure radiation protection. BS IEC 61017 applies to transportable, mobile, or installed assemblies intended to measure environmental air kerma rates or air absorbed dose rates from 30 nGy⋅h–1 to 30 μGy⋅h–1 or ambient dose equivalent rates from 30 nSv⋅h–1 to 30 μSv⋅h–1, or air kerma or air absorbed dose from 10 nGy to 10 mGy, or ambient dose equivalent from 10 nSv to 10 mSv, due to photon radiation of energy between 50 keV and 7 MeV. The equipment covered under BS IEC 61017 comprises a detector assembly and processing circuits, which may be connected either rigidly or through a flexible cable or incorporated into a single assembly. The equipment assembly may also include circuits for displaying readings, alarms, and communication. Note 1: 80 keV t...
