What is PD IEC TS 63050- Requirements and test methods for dosemeters about?

PD IEC TS 63050 discusses radiation protection instrumentation. PD IEC TS 63050 is an international standard on the requirements and test methods for dosemeters for pulse fields radiation protection instrumentation to ensure protection to workers at the workplace. PD IEC TS 63050 applies to all types of dosemeters, irrespective of the type of radiation intended to be measured. Tests under PD IEC TS 63050 determine whether a single radiation pulse can be measured correctly even if the dosemeter is in the internal state relevant for measuring background or environmental radiation. PD IEC TS 63050 considers the pulsation of the radiation field as an additional influence quantity like particle energy and direction of radiation incidence. Therefore, the tests described are additional to all the tests in the instrument-specific standards. PD IEC TS 63050 describes methods to determine the following characteristic parameters of the dosemeters:

The maximum measurable dose rate in the pulse, H meas, max

The maximum measurable dose in the pulse, H meas, max

The minimal pulse duration, t meas, min

The range for the pulse repetition frequency, f meas, min to f meas, max

Note1: These parameters may be inter-related depending on the detector used. Note2: The term dose used in PD IEC TS 63050 is in the sense of dose equivalent, but the requirements can also be adapted to air kerma, exposure, or other quantities expressing the amount of radiation. Note3: The parameter pulse repetition frequency, fpulse,...
