Vanhemmen, J J; Vanhoek, L P; Aten, J B.T.

The relationship between the meter indications and the radioactivity of fission products in drinking water for the combination contamination meter IM 4457 and liquid counter M2H was investigated. The experimental setup is presented, the efficiency of the liquid counter for a mixture of fission products is briefly dealt with, and the use of the combination counter/meter in the field is discussed.
