A survey meter for measuring a radioactive contamination caused in an inner surface of a pipe includes a radiation detecting section and a signal processing section. The radiation detecting section includes a rod-shaped light guide unit, a reflecting portion connected to one end surface of the light guide unit, a photoelectric transfer unit, for outputting an electronic signal, connected to another one end surface of the light guide unit, and a scintillator unit provided to a circumference of the light guide unit. The signal processing section includes a pulse height discriminator for outputting a logic signal at a time when a pulse height value of the electronic signal outputted from the photoelectric transfer unit is higher than a threshold value, a counter unit for counting the logic signal, a contamination judging unit for judging whether a radioactive contamination is caused or not, and a display unit for displaying the value counted by the counter unit and a contamination judging result judged by the contamination judging unit.

A verification method is provided for verifying a safety apparatus including a programmable logic device having a plurality of functional elements. The verification method includes the steps of exhaustively verifying the plurality of functional elements on actual hardware, generating a functional element that is the same as one of the functional elements verified on the actual apparatus using a predetermined hardware description language, independently logic-synthesizing each generated functional element into a plurality of first net lists, generating a connection function between the functional elements using the predetermined hardware description language, logic-synthesizing the generated connection function into a second net list corresponding to the connection function, synthesizing the first net lists with the second net list to generate a third net list, writing a logic circuit into the programmable logic device on the basis of the third net list, and verifying the actual programmable logic device.

An apparatus for producing hydrogen is able to measure a position of a interface or a surface boundary of liquids in a reaction vessel without direct contact. An apparatus for producing hydrogen by an IS process includes a reaction vessel, a radiation source, a radiation detector, and a data processing unit. Reacting liquids are to be introduced in the reaction vessel. The radiation source is provided at a first side wall of the reaction vessel. The radiation detector is provided at a second side wall which faces the first side wall provided with the radiation source. The data processing unit is connected to the radiation detector, which receives radiation data transmitted through the reaction vessel, from the radiation detector. The radiation data processing unit estimates constituents and concentrations of the reacting liquids from the radiation data.
