The calibration source should be the same reference isotope as used by the manufacturer (often Cs 137). If another isotope is used which causes a shift in the energy response of the instrument, then the dose rate response of the instrument must be within +- 20% of the true dose rate over the energy spectrum of interest.

CONT

La source d'étalonnage devrait contenir le même isotope de référence que le fabricant utilise (souvent du césium 137). Si on utilise un autre isotope qui modifie la réponse d'énergie de l'appareil, la réponse du débit de dose de l'appareil doit se situer à 20 pour 100 plus ou moins du débit de dose réel au-dessus du spectre d'énergie pertinent.
