For other ca

10、ses, the use of this standard is by agreement between the manufacturer and the purc hacer. The purpose of the ultrasonic inspection is the detection of defects within the wall thickness and at the outer and inner surfaces of the tube. The method will detect two dimensional defects in the longitudina

11、l and circumferential directions perpendicular to the tube wall. Where inspection for other types of defects is required, this requirements shall be stated on the order. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference provisions from other publications.

The tubes shall be inspected automatically and c

20、d heat treatment condition as the tubes to be inspected. The selected length of the reference specimen shall be such that it can be tested in the test system described below. The reference specimen shall not have any defects or other irregularities that can produce indications or interfere with the

21、detection of the reference notches. Four reference notches of the same dimensions (depth, width, length) as shown in figure 1 shall be introduced in each tube. The depth, width and length of the notches are defined in table 1 and subdivided into classes. A-A B-B c-c 0-0 - b - ,+ t = Depth R2= Rl+t d

25、ction and edge radii IO,13 mm. The depth of the notch shall correspond to a mean value, measured from the tube surface to the respective penetration depth of the notch. Notch dimensions shali comply with the values specified in table 1 to within _+ 15 %. The notch depth shall be measured from the ci

26、rcular surface to the deepest penetration of the notch. Measurements may be made by replication or by a destructive method on a duplicate notch which has identical ultrasonic response (amplitude within 90 % to 110 % of the reference notch amplitude). In order to have access to notches lying inside t

27、he reference specimen, a window may be cut into the opposite tube wall to provide access to the notch. The window shall not be so large as to interfere with the ultrasonic responses from the notch. Each reference specimen shall be identified. The serial number and EN 3718 shall be permanently marked

28、 on the reference specimen and the following information shall either be marked on the specimen or maintained in a log book : alloy, heat treatment condition, diameter, wall thickness, size and location of reference notches. 5.3 Ultrasonic test equipment The ultrasonic test equipment shall be of the

29、 pulse echo type with appropriate signal outputs for registration of the measuring values. 5.4 Probes and probe arrangement In view of the geometry of the defects anticipated, the use of spherical or cylindrical focused probes as determined by the specified notch dimensions is recommended. For the u

30、ltrasonic echo inspection to detect defects running primarily in the longitudinal or circumferential direction of the tube, identical probes shall be used to achieve oblique incidence on both sides of the tube. The probes shall be sufficiently far apart to ensure that they will not influence one ano

31、ther. It is also possible to use just one probe on one side, although it is then necessary to inspect from the other side in a subsequent run. For example, the inspection of steel tube may be carried out by using 45O transverse waves. In this case the angle of incidence in water is approximatively 1

32、7O for detection of defects in longitudinal tube direction (see figure 2), and approximatively 19O for detection of defects in circumferential tube direction (see figure 3).

Wetting or anti-corrosion agents

35、may be added to the couplant, provided that the surface conditions of the tube is not impaired. Bubbles are not allowed in order to avoid any disturbance of the transmission of sound. Sound coupling may be achieved by immersion of the probe and tube. Coupling is also possible by having a local strea

36、m of fluid between the two, whilst ensuring that the flow is not turbulent (squirter technique).

The two signals shall not be more than 6 dB lower than the maximum indication of the

38、 reference notch. See figure 4. Figure 4 : Test trace in the case of helical movement 5.7 Evaluation and recording unit The ultrasonic signals of interest received by the ultrasonic apparatus, shall be gated out and their amplitudes registered by a recorder plotting them as a function of the respect

39、ive location on the tube. Evaluation and recording is also possible by using a computer and a plotter for producing amplitude scans or C-scans. 5.8 The inspection equipment and the procedure for the respective type of defect primarily to be found (see description of reference specimen in clause 5.2)

40、 shall fulfil the following requirements with regard to detection sensitivity : - indication of the corresponding notch of the reference specimen for the respective tube type with a signal-to-noise ratio of at least 12 dB (with reference to faultless condition). In the case of external defects, indi

41、cations shall be based on a one-skip-distance arrangement; - complete separation time-wise of the evaluation signal from any other signal (e.g. surface signal); - demonstration of reproducibility by means of plots. Detection sensitivity of the equipment One procedure is normally required for each ma

42、in type of defect, however the following simplifications are possible : - if the signal indications of the reference notches in longitudinal (or circumferential) tube direction fulfil the above-mentioned criteria on the inside and outside and do not differ by more than 10 %, the tubes may be simulta

43、neously inspected for internal and external defects in longitudinal (and circumferential) direction of the tube. In this case, the entire time range of the signal from the inner and outer notch shall be gated in one or two channels (see figure 5) and evaluated on the basis of the one channel thresho

44、ld level.

46、might affect the interpretation of the inspection results. Neither the metal nor its final surface condition shall be impaired by the surface cleaning and pretreatment procedures carried out prior to the ultrasonic inspection. The inner surface shall be dry to avoid false indications from fluid drop

47、lets. Tubes shall be plugged. The mean depth of surface roughness Ra shall not exceed 2,5 pm. 6.2 Instrument calibration Using the reference specimen as per clause 5.2, the test equipment shall be set to a certain indication value with reference to the respective reference notches) subsequent to com

48、pletion of the time adjustment (path adjustment). Adjustment shall be carried out under dynamic conditions ; one plot of a reference specimen shall be kept to document the correct adjustment. The helical scan pitch and rotational speed shall be such that the respective reference notch always lower t

Water path shall be adjusted so that the focal spot of the source beam lies at the middle of the wall thickness of the tube during calibration and inspection. The adjustment of the overall system prior to and after tube inspection shall be checked at intervals as agreed between manufacturer and purchaser, using
