Measurement of radioactivity in the environment - Air - Radon 220: Integrated measurement methods for the determination of the average activity concentration using passive solid-state nuclear track detectors (ISO 16641:2014)
ISO 16641:2014 covers integrated measurement techniques for radon-220 with passive sampling only. It provides information on measuring the average activity concentration of radon-220 in the air, based on easy-to-use and low-cost passive sampling, and the conditions of use for the measuring devices.
ISO 16641:2014 covers samples taken without interruption over periods varying from a few months to one year.

L'ISO 16641:2014 décrit uniquement les méthodes de mesure intégrées du radon 220 impliquant un prélèvement passif. Elle fournit des informations sur le mesurage de l'activité volumique moyenne du radon 220 dans l'air, basé sur un prélèvement passif, de mise en ?uvre facile et peu coûteuse, ainsi que sur les conditions d'utilisation des dispositifs de mesure.
L'ISO 16641:2014 traite des échantillons prélevés sans interruption sur des périodes comprises entre quelques mois à un an.

Standard ISO 16641:2014 zajema integrirane merilne tehnike za radon-220 samo s pasivnim vzorčenjem. Podaja informacije o merjenju povprečne koncentracije aktivnosti radona-220 v zraku na podlagi stroškovno učinkovitega pasivnega vzorčenja, preprostega za uporabo, in pogoje za uporabo merilnih naprav.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
