Description
The planned JUNO (Jinangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) Detector will use 20 kt of liquid scintillator (LS) based on LAB (Linear AlkylBenzene) as neutrino target within an acrylic sphere with a diameter of 35.4 m. For the filling of this sphere with LS pressurized gaseous nitrogen will be used. To avoid a contamination of the LS with 222Rn, it's content in the nitrogen gas will be monitored. In this talk the status of a prototype radon monitoring system based on a proportional chamber developed at Technische Universitaet Muenchen is presented.
