Place the probe in direct contact with the surace o the deposit and start measuring. It is recommended to measure the average counting rate over a period o ew seconds. 5. Repeat this procedure or the two other standards in this series. The result can be illustrated graphically by displaying the specic activity inBq/gasafunctionofthecountingrateinCPS,asillustratedinthe example below. A straight line is drawn in the best possible way through the three measurement points. A horizontal line is then drawn in on the graph denoting the LLW limit or classication as ree, which will correspond to 10 Bq/g, since we measure the specic activity o the sum o the two radium isotopes and the ratio between them is 3:1.

This is done to nd possible other deposits o LRA that could aect the measurement. 4. Measure the background spectrum about 30 cm rom where the metering is to take place towards the area where the background spectrum (see point 3) is the strongest. Record the result as Background . 5. With the instrument in contact with the surace o the pipe or component, commence metering. Record the result as Measurement . 6. I Measurement is considered to be denitely larger than Background, the presence o LRA is proven. (Comment: it is practically impossible to defne more specifc criteria than the above. The correct use o the method depends on the users experience and good judgment.)
