Scope
What is this ISO 11665 ‑ 1- Radon in air measurement about? ISO 11665 discusses the measurement of radioactivity in the environment. Since radon present in soil can leech into the environment, it can pose a health risk to people who breathe that air. It is important to measure the quantity of radon in this air to determine whether people are safe in those surroundings. ISO 11665 ‑ 1 is the first part of the multi-series on measurement of radioactivity in the environment that describes radon-222 associated measurement methods. ISO 11665 ‑ 1 provides outlines guidance for measuring radon-222 activity concentration and the potential alpha energy concentration of its short-lived decay products in the air. The measurement methods fall into three categories: Spot measurement methods Continuous measurement methods Integrated measurement methods ISO 11665 ‑ 1 provides several methods commonly used for measuring radon-222 and its short-lived decay products in the air. ISO 11665 ‑ 1 also provides guidance on the determination of the inherent uncertainty linked to the measurement methods described in its different parts. Who is ISO 11665 ‑ 1- Radon in air measurement for ? ISO 11665 ‑ 1 on radon in air measurement is useful for: Environmental bodies Health and safety inspectors Real estate developers / builders Why should you use ISO 11665 ‑
