You can now calibrate the E2 RAD detector unit by making an average measurement and comparing it with
the theoretical value of a known reference source. A suggested value for the calibration factor will appear in
the field when you enter the theoretical dose rate of the known reference source.
7.2.2 Irradiation type
Icohup recommended calibration by using an irradiator allowing a homogeneous irradiation field at least 3
times larger than the sensor.
7.2.3 Position
The sensors must be positioned as follow:
●
the center of the field must fit with the center marks on the sensors. (see pictures)
●
the depth of irradiation must fit with the center on the sensor. (see pictures)
The position of the center of detection is indicated by a gray dot on the casing, as shown in red on the image
below.
