BS IEC 60951-1 pdf download – Nuclear power plants — Instrumentation important to safety — Radiation monitoring for accident and post-accident conditions — Part 1: General requirements
1 Scope
This part of lEC 60951 provides general guidance on the design principles and performancecriteria for equipment’to measure radiation and fluid (gaseous effluents’ or liquids)radioactivity levels at nuclear power plants during and after an accident. This standard islimited to equipment for continuous monitoring of radioactivity in accident and post-accidentconditions.
The object of this standard is to lay down mandatory general requirements and give examplesof acceptable methods for equipment for continuous monitoring of radioactivity within theplant during and after accident conditions in nuclear power plants using light water reactors.
lt specifies,for the equipment described above,the general characteristics,general testprocedures, radiation,electrical, safety and environmental characteristics and theidentification and certification of the equipment. lf this equipment is part of a centralizedsystem for continuous radiation monitoring in a nuclear facility,there may be additionalrequirements from other standards related to this system.
Sample extraction and laboratory analysis,which are essential to a complete programme ofeffluent monitoring, are not within the scope of this standard.
