(Main)Non-destructive testing - Determination of the size of industrial radiographic sources - Radiographic method
Non-destructive testing - Determination of the size of industrial radiographic sources - Radiographic method
This standard specifies the determination of the size of gamma radiographic sources of 0,5 mm or greater, made from the radionuclides Iridium 192, Ytterbium 169, Selenium 75 or Cobalt 60, by a method of radiography with X-rays. The source size of a gamma radiography source is an important factor which affects the image quality of gamma ray images. The source size is determined with an accuracy of +/- 10 % or 0,1 mm. This standard can be used for other radionuclides after validation.
Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Bestimmung der Strahlergrößen von industriell genutzten Radio-Nukliden - Durchstrahlungsverfahren
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Bestimmung der Strahlengröße von Gammastrahlern von 0,5 mm oder größer der Radio-Nuklide Iridium 192, Ytterbium 169, Selen 75 oder Kobalt 60 mit Hilfe eines Durchstrahlungsverfahrens mit Röntgenstrahlen fest. Die Strahlergröße eines Gammastrahlers ist ein wesentlicher Parameter, der die Bildqualität eines Durchstrahlungsbildes beeinflußt. Die Strahlergröße wird mit einer Unsicherheit von max. +/- 10 % bzw. 0,1 mm gemessen. Diese Europäische Norm kann auch für andere Radio-Nuklide Anwendung finden, wenn die Machbarkeit überprüft wurde.
Essais non destructifs - Détermination des dimensions des sources de radiographie industrielle - Méthode par radiographie
La présente norme traite de la détermination, par une méthode de radiographie aux rayons X, des dimensions des sources de rayonnement gamma de 0,5 mm ou plus, fabriquées à partir des radionucléides Iridium 192, Ytterbium 169 Sélénium 75 ou Cobalt 60. La dimension d'une source de rayonnement gamma est un facteur important qui affecte la qualité des images obtenues par rayonnement gamma. Les dimensions d'une source sont déterminées avec une précision de +/- 10 %, ou 0,1 mm. La présente norme peut être utilisée pour d'autres radionucléides après validation.
