This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2006-02-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, the Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of the International Standard IEC 61582:2004, prepared by SC 45B, Radiation protection
instrumentation, of IEC TC 45, Nuclear instrumentation, together with common modifications prepared by
the CENELEC BTTF 111-3, Nuclear instrumentation and radiation protection instrumentation, was
submitted to the formal vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 61582 on 2006-02-01.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2007-02-01
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2009-02-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.

Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 61582:2004 was approved by CENELEC as a European
Standard with agreed common modifications as given below.
COMMON MODIFICATIONS
1 Scope and object
th
Delete in the 10 paragraph, second line: “of the whole body monitor”.

3 Terms and definitions
3.10 relative intrinsic error
Delete the last word of the last paragraph: “activity”.

3.13 energy resolution
Extend the term in order to read “relative energy resolution”.
Delete “full width at half maximum (FWHM)” below the indication of the term.
Shift the first paragraph behind the formula and start the shifted paragraph with
“Where the full width is measured …”.
Replace in the text in front of the formula “R ” with “ε ”
e R’
Replace in the formula “FWHM” with “ε ”
R’
Delete the “%” at the end of the formula.

4 Classification
4.1 General classification
In the first line, replace “type of elements” with “radionuclides”.

7 Characteristics of equipment for high-energy emitter measurements
100 keV to 3 MeV
7.3 Energy resolution
In the second paragraph, replace “9 %” with “10 %”.

7.4 Integral non-linearity
In the first and second paragraph, replace “conversion response (integral non-
linearity)” with “integral non-linearity (conversion response)”.

8 Performance requirements and test procedures for low-energy emitter
measurements
8.1 General test procedures
8.1.2 Tests performed under standard test conditions
Replace reference to “Tables 2, 3 and 4” with reference to “Tables 2 and 3”.

8.4 Radiation characteristics
8.4.2 Linearity (in relation to activity)
8.4.2.3 Expression of results
Correct the explanation of F in order to read “is the relative uncertainty of the
SA
conventionally true activity of the test phantom in per cent (95 % confidence)”,
extend the explanation of F in order to read “… of the test phantom relative to the
SR
other sources …”
8.4.4 Determination of the integral non-linearity (INL) error
8.4.4.2 INL determination
Insert in the first paragraph behind “conversion characteristics”: “(channel number N
versus energy E )”,
γ
replace the first explanation below the formula with “the channel number for energy
ZERO”
and in the second explanation, replace “k” with “K”

8.4.8 Determination of the maximum count rate
8.4.8.2 Method of test
1 2
Replace in the formula “C ” with “C ”
2 1
8.4.9 Determination of stability
8.4.9.2 Method of test
Replace in the last formula and the paragraph i
