Some Characteristics of the TL Personal Dosemeter used by CPHR Individual Monitoring Service
In order to evaluate the performance characteristics of TL personal dosemeters used by the CPHR individual monitoring service, different performance tests were carried out. Some of the tests were those recommended by the International Electrotechnical Commission. The dosemeter consists of LiF:Mg,Ti (model JR1152C) detectors kept in a plastic holder. Important dosimetric characteristics evaluated were batch homogeneity, reproducibility, detection threshold, energy and angular dependence and fading. The result of the tests showed good performance characteristics of the detectors.
