| Zusammenfassung | In Germany, authorized experts are required to measure around an X-ray facility to determine supervised and controlled areas within the scope of a legal regulatory procedure. For this purpose, they use area dosemeters which are type-approved by the PTB. To date, all available type-approved area dosemeters are only tested in continuous radiation fields, and therefore the technical data of the measuring instruments are valid only for continuous radiation. In practice, however, the majority of facilities are pulsed radiation X-rays. Since no other measuring equipment is available, the authorized experts use supposedly unsuitable dosemeters. But is this really so? In the scope of this paper, instruments typically used for these measurements were tested to investigate their behaviour. |
