The calibration of radiation detectors is essential to maintain the reliability of the measurements of the detectors in accordance with AREA regulations, considering its application in different types of work that demand the use of radioactive material and devices that emit ionizing radiation. More than guaranteeing confidence in production processes, MX2 RADIATION will carry out calibration of radiation detectors in order to guarantee the radiological safety and health of its employees and the environment preservation.

The radiation detector is calibrated to the magnitude in which it was designed to carry out the measurements, which can be of the ionization chamber, dosimeter pen, scintillator, electronic dosimeter, geiger muller - fixed or portable, electronic dosimeter, integrator monitor and sound monitor ( beep) - area or individual

The calibration periodicity must be adopted based on AREA specific regulations. In the absence of these, the radiation detector criticality in the production process, short and long-term stability of the instrument, among other factors, must be considered. A new calibration is recommended after occurrences of defects, repairs, repairs or indication of irregular operation.
