The object of BS EN 60761-2 is to establish specific standard requirements, including technical characteristics and general test conditions, and to give examples of acceptable methods for aerosol effluent monitors.
BS EN 60761-2 is applicable to equipment intended for simultaneous, delayed or discrete sequential measurement of aerosols in gaseous effluents discharged into the environment.
The general requirements, technical characteristics, test procedures, radiation characteristics, electrical, mechanical, safety and environmental characteristics are given in IEC 60761-1.
BS EN 60761-2 is applicable to equipment designed to fulfill the following functions:
BS EN 60761-2 on Equipment for continuous monitoring radioactivity in gaseous effluentsis relevant to:
Aerodynamic equivalent diameter is the diameter of a unit-density sphere having the same gravitational-settling velocity as the particle in question.
BS EN 60761-2 provides you with the procedure and necessary equipment for the continuous monitoring of radioactivity in gaseous effluents and provides requirements for aerosol monitors including transuranic aerosols.
BS EN 60761-2 assists in standardizing a procedure for monitoring the radioactivity to achieve comparability of data.
With compliance and obedience to guidance under BS EN 60761-2, you can accurately estimate radioactive emissions in aerosols so that it is safe for use.
