MS-PC 2015: Performance Specifications for Instrumentation Systems Designed to Measure Radon Gas in Air Page 14 of 20 8 DOCUMENTATION To meet the requirements of this standard, the manufacturer shall have available upon request a report covering the tests performed on the device model demonstrating the attainment of the performance requirements of this standard. The report shall list the requirements and corresponding test results described in this standard, with the STAR in formation where the tests were performed and a description of how the system used to determine the average radon concentration from the STAR is traceable as defined in Section 4. At a minimum, the provider’s (manufacturer’s or distributor’s) report of tests shall cover, as appropriate, the information listed in Table 8.1, with: • ranges of radon concentration and measurement duration for which the device meets this standard’s requirements; • effects of other types of radiation; • suggested method(s) of calibration; • effects of temperature, pressure and humidity, and shocks inherent to the vibrations associated with the operation of hand-held or hand-carried equipment, including the results of the tests specifically listed in this standard; • effects of radio frequency, electrostatics, electromagnetic forces and microwaves; • personnel responsible for the test results, and • summary or reference to the quality assurance/quality control requirements for the chamber. In addition to these, the manufacturer shall document any other factors that affect the performance metrics. Not all tests must be conducted in the same STAR. Documentation of results of testin g in a STAR shall include the information in the sample report shown in Table 8.1. Formatting and order of information may differ from that shown in the sample report, but all of the information must be included in order to provide the test report that shall be made available to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this standard.
