Reference<br />
* Sievert (Sv) is an unit expressing the level of influence of radi<strong>at</strong>ion to a person.<br />
・1 milli sievert (mSv) = 1000 micro sievert (μSv)<br />
● Examples of ”<strong>Radi<strong>at</strong>ion</strong> in Daily-life” as publicized by the Ministry of Educ<strong>at</strong>ion,<br />
Culture, Sports, Science and Technology – Japan.<br />
・Chest X-ray Examin<strong>at</strong>ion(1 time)<br />
0.05 mSv<br />
・One roundtrip air travel Tokyo ~ New York<br />
0.2 mSv<br />
・Abdominal X-ray Examin<strong>at</strong>ion (1 time)<br />
0.6 mSv<br />
● According to the World Health Organiz<strong>at</strong>ion (WHO), a person is exposed to an annual<br />
average of 3.0mSv of radi<strong>at</strong>ion in a normal daily life.<br />
【Monitoring Device】Fuji Electric Systems Co., Ltd - Portable Monitoring Post (Model : NAJ51)<br />
【Loc<strong>at</strong>ion of Device】NAA Telecommunic<strong>at</strong>ion Center (5 stories high) Roof Top,<br />
North end (24.5m from ground level)<br />
Note : The soundness of the measuring device, the reliability of the readings and the install<strong>at</strong>ion of the device has been verified by the<br />
Japan Chemical Analysis Center (http://www.jcac.or.jp/ (Website in Japanese only)), an organiz<strong>at</strong>ion which specializes in the analysis<br />
of environmental radi<strong>at</strong>ion and radioactivity.
