Status: Instrument fit for use.

Notes:
1. The reported expanded uncertainty is 7.53% is based on standard uncertainty multiplied by a coverage factor k=2, providing a level
of confidence of approximately 95%.
2. Exposure rates are derived from measurements made by Exradin A5 ion chamber sr no. XY123302and standard imaging electrometer Supermax sr
no. P130781 calibrated at BARC and uses calibration factor 1.224 x 1011 R/h/A at 20⁰ C and 760mm of Hg with a measurement uncertainty of ±5%
3. The readings quoted are averages observed after the detector has been exposed for a period sufficiently long to enable it to reach
equilibrium.
4. If the fluctuation of the observed reading was greater than ±10% of the average reading, then the minimum and maximum
observed readings have been considered.
5. Before using the instrument the user should be familiar with its characteristics (energy dependency, directional dependence, etc.).
Such information may be obtained from a type test report.
6. The calibration was done on the date of issue of the certificate.
7. The certificate meets the requirements of AERB and is satisfactory for use. (R.I.E ±15%)
8. This calibration was performed using a Hopewell Design Inc G10 gamma Irradiator located in laboratory premisis of Nuvia India,
Delhi.
9. The Mean Energy of Co-60 is 1.25 Mev & Ion chamber used for reference radiation field is of 100 CC
10. In case of repair, broken seal, opening of instrument, damage, malfunctioning due to wear and tear, calibration validity is void.
