Abstract In order to promote the unification of measurement values in the field of low-energy X-ray air kerma measurement in China and achieve international equivalence, National Institute of Metrology, China (NIM) measured the air kerma of low-energy X-ray absolutely with a plate free air ionization chamber which is the primary standard in 2018. Two transfer ionization chambers named Radcal-RC6M were calibrated in low energy X-ray radiation field at NIM and BIPM. The comparison results are equivalent to those of the BIPM within the range of 0.37% of the relative standard uncertainty. The comparison results have been included in the key comparison database (KCDB) of the BIPM.
