Description

The NORM, Network of Radiation Monitors, was constructed in 1980 with a center, 3 sub-stations and 48 radiation monitors. The basic conditions for the construction of the NORM were as follows: the first is to ensure the large extension of the number of both the sub-station and the radiation monitor, the second to invest the selection of radiation detectors with the large flexibility so as to allow stepwise development of those, the third to unify the assemblage of radiation detectors and electronic circuits, and the fourth to simplify the connection between a sub-station and a radiation monitor. The NORM has expanded for 7 years. Here we describe the NORM system in detail
