This Mining Enforcement and Safety Administration publication describes the apparatus and procedures necessary to calibrate the various types of equipment used for radon and radon-daughter measurement. The publication describes air-sampling devices, counting instruments, and other specialized equipment for measuring radon gas and both attached and unattached radon daughters. The use of these standardized calibration procedures is necessary for accurate, uniform measurement of radon and radon-daughter concentrations.
