Preliminary evaluation of real time false CAM alarm prediction through continuous radon monitoring.
The outputs of two real-time radon monitors were compared with the output from a continuous air monitor (CAM) to evaluate the potential of predicting false CAM alarms. From the results obtained, it appears that the radon monitor will be able to indicate when large rapid changes in radon levels are occurring before the effect on a CAM has taken place.
