Significance and Use4.1 Graded reference radiographs are intended

25、 to provide aguide enabling recognition of specific casting discontinuitytypes and relative severity levels that may be encounteredduring typical fabrication processes. Reference radiographscontaining ungraded discontinuities are provided as a guide forrecognition of a specific casting discontinuity

26、 type whereseverity levels may not be needed. These reference radiographsare intended as a basis from which manufacturers and purchas-ers may, by mutual agreement, select particular workmanshipclasses to serve as standards representing minimum levels ofacceptability (see Sections 6 and 7).4.2 Refere

27、nce radiographs represented by this standard maybe used, as agreed upon in a purchaser supplier agreement, forenergy levels, thicknesses or both outside the range of thisstandard when determined applicable for the casting serviceapplication. Overlapping severity levels of similar discontinu-ity cate

29、aphs of this standard areprescribed in Section 8; however, there may be manufacturing-purchaser issues involving specific casting service applicationswhere it may be appropriate to modify or alter such require-ments. Where such modifications may be appropriate for thecasting application, all such ch

30、anges shall be specificallycalled-out in the purchaser supplier agreement or contractualdocument. Section 9 addresses purchaser supplier requisiteswhere weld repairs may be required.5. Method of Preparation5.1 The original radiographs used to prepare the adjunctreference radiographs were produced on

31、 ASTM Class I or IIfilm systems by the respective use of radiation energies statedin 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. The original radiographs were made with apenetrameter sensitivity as determined by ASTM penetram-eters (see Guide E94) of 2-2T. The adjunct reference radio-graphs are reproductions prepared to an op

32、tical density of 2.00to 2.25 and they have substantially retained the contrast of theoriginal radiographs. In preparing these reference radiographs,the objective was to obtain progressively graduated severitylevels for each graded discontinuity category over the thicknessrange of this standard. Addi

33、tionally, some overlap of severitylevels may occur for similar discontinuity categories of Refer-ence Radiograph standard E186 with the same energy levelrange. For example, aggregate gas porosity severity level 1 ofthis standard is less severe than aggregate porosity severitylevel 5 of E186 (see 6.3

34、).5.2 Film DeteriorationRadiographic films are subject towear and tear from handling and use. The extent to which theimage deteriorates over time is a function of storage condi-tions, care in handling and amount of use. Reference radio-graph films are no exception and may exhibit a loss in imagequal

35、ity over time. The radiographs should therefore be peri-odically examined for signs of wear and tear, includingscratches, abrasions, stains, and so forth. Any reference radio-graphs which show signs of excessive wear and tear whichcould influence the interpretation and use of the radiographsshould b

Determination of Radiographic Classification6.1 For purposes of evaluation of castings, a determinationmust be made of the radiographic discontinuity classification to4Available from ASTM Headquarters.5Order RRE028001.6Order RRE028002.E280 102be assigned to individual castings or speci

37、fic areas of castings.The determination of the applicable radiographic discontinuityclassification shall be based on an evaluation of the castingapplications, design, and service requirements. In these evalu-ations, consideration shall be given to such factors as pressure,temperature, section thickn

38、ess, applicable design safety factor,vibration, shock, resistance to corrosion, involvement of pen-etrating radiations or radiation products, and involvement ofdangerous gases or liquids.6.2 For each individual casting or specific area of a castingto be radiographed, the discontinuity class must be

39、clearlyspecified. For example: severity level 2 might be specified forlinear shrinkage, Category Ca, and severity level 3 for gasporosity, Category A, since the latter are generally much lessdeleterious to tensile properties (see Section 7).6.3 When determining discontinuity severity levels for in-d

40、ividual castings spanning multiple thickness ranges outsidethe range of this standard, consideration should be given to thepotential for overlapping severity levels as described in 4.2 andSection 5.6.4 Production radiographs which are compared to refer-ence radiographs should have an optical density

41、 in the area ofinterest in accordance with Guide E94 and a specified mini-mum radiographic sensitivity (quality level) of 2 % (2-2T).5Other radiographic quality levels or optical densities may bedesignated, but then a corresponding change in severity levelfor each discontinuity category should be an

42、ticipated and hencespecified.7. Classification Specifications7.1 The applicable radiographic discontinuity classificationshould be designated by the contracting agency in formalspecifications or drawings and in the specific contract or order.The specifications, drawings, contract, or order should al

43、sodesignate the sampling plan for the castings to be radiographedand the extent of radiographic coverage, radiographic practiceto be followed (Guide E94), image quality desired (see Note 2)as well as the severity of acceptable discontinuity for gradedcategories.NOTE 2For description of sensitivity o

44、r image quality levels, seeGuide E94 and Reference Radiograph standard E242.8. Procedure for Evaluation8.1 Compare the production radiographs of the castingsubmitted for evaluation with the reference radiographs ex-posed at an equivalent energy range within the thickness rangeof this standard (unles

45、s otherwise specifiedsee Section 4).8.2 When the severity level of discontinuities in the produc-tion radiograph being evaluated is equal to or less than theseverity level in the specified reference radiograph, that part ofthe casting represented by the production radiograph shall beacceptable. If t

46、he production radiograph shows discontinuitiesof greater severity than the reference radiograph, that part ofthe casting shall be rejected.8.3 A unit area on the production radiograph shall beevaluated to a unit area of like size on the reference radiograph.Any evaluation unit area that shares a dis

47、continuity with anadjacent unit evaluation area shall meet the minimum unit areaacceptability requirements within the combined unit area.When the unit area of interest of a production radiograph is lessthan the unit area of the applicable reference radiograph, suchunit area of the production radiogr

48、aph shall be prorated to thereference radiographic area.8.4 When two or more categories of discontinuity arepresent in the same production radiograph, the predominatingdiscontinuities, if unacceptable, shall govern without regard tothe other categories of discontinuity and that part of the castingsh

49、all be judged unacceptable.8.5 When two or more categories of discontinuity arepresent to an extent equal to the maximum permissible level asshown in the applicable standards for each category, then thatpart of the casting shall be judged unacceptable. When two ormore categories of discontinuity are present in the sameradiograph to an extent less than the maximum permissiblelevel, as shown in the applicable standards for each category,the severity shall be evaluated by the overall aggregatecondition. The aggregate condition is defined as the balanc
