’Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
No electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged by the chimney with care
With the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.

A laboratory handling tritium requires a large variety of procedures for the assay of tritium concentrations over a very wide range (10−9 Ci/m3a to 106 Ci/m3). The measurement of tritium can be conveniently categorized into four levels from very low concentrations to very high concentrations (up to 100% T2). This paper will describe in detail the monitoring and analytical procedures used, as well as operational experience with the various equipment, in the CRNL Tritium Laboratory.a1 Ci = 37 GBq
