Abstract. In 2005, the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), Germany submitted a sample of known activity of ²²²Rn to the International Reference System (SIR). The value of the activity submitted was about 1.1 MBq. This key comparison result joins that of Switzerland in the key comparison database that now contains two results, identifier BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Rn-222. Consequently, the KCRV and the degrees of equivalence have been evaluated.
