Abstract : It has been already done a research for creating an activity measurement method of Radon gas by a continuing method. Radon gas is one kind of the natural radioactive gas besides Actinon and Thoron gases which are yielded from continually decay from the nature isotope 238U, 235U and 232Th in the earth. On this continuing method, it has been made a system which is possible the Radon gas to flow and is counted directly by a Zn(S) Ag scintillation detector and send the data to the observation station using a telemetry system. The difference between the activities with the telemetry and without telemetry system is not more than 10 %. The experimental result denotes that this continuing method can counts and shows directly the Radon gas activity well in the observation station. The system of Radon activity measurement is a new system to monitor the volcanic activity beside the seismic and volcanic systems.
