Tritium electron capture detectors release tritium gas at a rate which increases with increasing temperature. For this reason, the manufacturer's suggested operating temperature should not be exceeded, and tritium detectors and removable foils should be stored in a well ventilated area such as a fume hood.

CONT

Les détecteurs à capture d'électrons au tritium rejettent du tritium à un débit qui augmente avec le degré de température. En conséquence, la température d'utilisation suggérée par le fabricant ne devrait pas être dépassée, et les détecteurs au tritium et les feuilles métalliques démontables devraient être entreposées dans un endroit bien ventilé.
