15、inspection. This International Standard is intended to provide general guidance on the choice of low-power magnifiers used in the examination of metallic and other surfaces in order to detect the presence of imperfections or to assess condition and texture. As necessary, terms of special significanc

16、e in the context of this document are defined in Annex A. 1 Scope 1.1 This International Standard specifies the characteristics of the following types of low-power magnifiers and gives recommendations for their selection for the inspection of surfaces. Single-element magnifiers of magnification typi

17、cally up to 4 (Type A). Multi-element magnifiers of magnification typically up to 10 (Type B). Twin-system magnifiers of magnification typically up to 15 (Type C), categorized as follows: a) binocular, normally with a long working distance (Type C.1); b) bi-ocular 1) , including those refined with s

18、tops or other attachments, for quasi-stereoscopic vision (Type C.2). Concave-mirror magnifiers with front-surface reflectors in powers typically up to 6 (Type D). 1.2 This International Standard is not concerned with: watch-makers loupes and spectacles; single-element, spherical- or cylindrical-lens

19、 magnifiers in which either the lens or the lens-mount rests on the surface of the object to be examined (this includes magnifiers provided with any form of graduated scale for the purpose of measurement); plastic lens sacs, liquid-filled; magnifiers intended for the examination of internal surfaces

20、. 2 Description of types 2.1 In all types of magnifier an illuminator may be incorporated in the lens mount or the stand. The stand may take the form of a distance-piece, tripod, pillar or other support. 2.2 “Reading-glass” magnifiers, Type A, shall normally be hand held. Type A and B may take the f

21、orm of hand-held pocket-size magnifiers. 2.3 Twin-system magnifiers, Type C.1, shall normally be mounted on a stand, but may be removed from this for use when access to the surface to be examined is difficult. Type C.2 is, of necessity, stand-mounted. 2.4 Types C.1 and D provide the viewing conditio

22、ns required for binocular vision, with the accompanying extended field of view and depth of focus. The use of Type D shall be confined to small objects. 3 Magnification 3.1 Magnification shall be stated in terms of linear magnification (see Annex A). Where appropriate, magnifiers of Types A and B sh

23、all have the nominal magnification permanently marked on the lens mount. 3.2 In cases where the manufacturer customarily rates lens power in dioptres, the equivalent linear magnification shall also be marked. If this is not practicable, the magnification shall be certified in a written statement. 4

24、Materials These lenses shall be made from optical glass or an optically equivalent plastic material which is dimensionally stable and does not change colour with age. 5 Optical and other characteristics 5.1 Lenses shall be free from veins, striae or other manufacturing defects and also be essentiall

25、y free from distortion and colour fringes over the entire viewing area. 5.2 Mounts for magnifying lenses of Types A, B and C shall give satisfactory optical performance and the mounting shall provide freedom of movement to facilitate examination of the whole surface. 5.3 The focal length or the magn

26、ification, as appropriate, shall not depart by more than10% from its nominal value. 1) The distinction between bi-ocular viewing and stereoscopic viewing is defined in Annex A.BSISO3058:1998 2 BSI 04-1999 6 Conditions governing the choice of magnifier Hand-held, single- or multi-element magnifiers h

27、aving a magnification of 2 to 4 are adequate for a wide range of industrial applications. The benefits of easy manipulation and relatively strain-free binocular vision can offset the reputed advantages of higher magnification, which may be illusory for the following reasons: higher magnification inv

28、olves a shorter eye-to-lens distance and a shorter working distance; short working distances, where only one eye can be used, are a contributory cause of operator fatigue; the field of view is much reduced and hence the time of inspection increased; the depth of focus is much smaller and spatial rel

29、ationships between different portions of the surface under inspection become difficult to assess. NOTEAttention is drawn to Annex B, in which the optimum dimensions of lenses covering the range of magnification most commonly employed in visual inspection are given. Annex C gives some notes on the us

30、e of magnifiers. 7 Illumination 7.1 General The optimum level of illumination for inspection magnification depends chiefly on the following factors: the relative position of the work piece, the eye and the light source, for example the ease or otherwise of access of surface to be examined; the natur

31、e and reflectivity of the surface; the direction of illumination, i.e.direct or oblique; light gathering and light loss in the optical system(s). 7.2 Relative position of workpiece The ideal condition, is that in which the surface under examination, or the object, can be tilted under the light so as

32、 to enable it to be examined from more than one angle and under more than one intensity of illumination. Conversely, if the workpiece itself is immovable both the eye and the light source have to alter their positions. 7.3 Nature and reflectivity of surface 7.3.1 Whereas inspection for a crack in a

33、steel forging or on the rippled surface of an arc weld might call for an intensity of illumination approaching5000lx, a crack in a polished metal surface might be detected at a level of intensity only slightly above that of ambient lighting. 7.3.2 Freedom from glare is important and magnifiers of Ty

34、pe A and also some of Type B may be equipped with diffusing screens to reduce sharp variations in intensity of illumination. Separate illuminators fined with diffusers are sometimes required. 7.3.3 Where possible, other sources of sharp contrast are also to be avoided in order to minimise eye fatigu

35、e, particularly in the case of small objects which usually require a high intensity of illumination. The eye shield around the lens shall be translucent and both the object and the surface on which it is placed shall have approximately the same degree of reflectivity. 7.4 Direction of illumination A

36、s in the case of intensity, the direction of illumination shall be dictated by reflectivity and the required purpose of the examination. The illumination shall extend to the periphery of the field of view and the variation of intensity from the middle to the outer zones shall not exceed3 : 1. 7.5 Li

37、ght gathering and light loss 7.5.1 Magnifiers of Type C.1 fitted with large objective lenses gather light with marked efficiency and are therefore particularly useful in situations where there is poor illumination, i.e.on site work in relatively inaccessible locations. 7.5.2 Light loss in multi-elem

38、ent systems can sometimes be lessened by the use of coated lenses.BSISO3058:1998 BSI 04-1999 3 Annex A (normative) Glossary of terms bi-ocular viewing: The name given to an arrangement whereby the same image from a single objective lens is presented to two eye-pieces by an optical device. NOTEThis t

39、erm is not to be confused with binocular viewing. binocular viewing: Observation of a field of view with both eyes simultaneously, using either a larger diameter lens or a binocular microscope, each eye receiving a unique image appropriate to its position relative to the field of view. depth of focu

40、s; depth of field: The theoretical distance by which either the inspected area or the magnifier can be displaced in the direction of viewing without altering the focus of the image obtained. dioptre: A unit employed to express the refracting power of a lens, based upon the fundamental equation for r

41、efraction at a spherical surface. NOTEThe power of a lens expressed in dioptres should not be confused with linear magnification. focal length: The distance between the optical centre of a lens and the image point (focus) for an infinitely distant object. focus: The point at which parallel rays, i.e

42、.those from a distant object, falling upon the lens are made to converge after refraction. linear magnification or magnifying power: The increase in the apparent size of the linear dimensions of the object observed expressed by the formula where stereoscopic viewing: The coalescence of two monocular

43、 images into a single image so as to convey the impression of vision in depth. NOTEThe quality of stereoscopic viewing depends, among other things, upon the flatness or otherwise of the surface or object observed. working distance: The distance between the lower surface of the lens nearest the objec

44、t and the surface of the object under inspection. Annex B (informative) Optimum dimensions of lenses The following table gives the optimum dimensions of lenses covering the range of magnification most commonly used in visual inspection. Annex C (informative) Notes on use of magnifiers C.1 Regardless

45、 of the range of magnification chosen for a particular purpose, it is important to ensure that the magnification employed throughout the entire inspection process is consistent with that specified. C.2 Where speed of inspection is required and it is necessary to handle the object, it is preferable t

46、o mount the magnifier on a pillar fitted with a means of adjustment for eye level and easy manipulation, for example a ball-and-socket clamp or “lazy tongs”. Alternatively, small objects are most easily viewed on the bench under a lens mounted on a distance piece or three-point support in which the

47、illuminator is housed. C.3 In cases where access to the object or surface is restricted (as in site work) and especially if good illumination is not available, a magnifier of TypeC.1 may be used to advantage. C.4 When speed of examination and depth of focus are of secondary importance, a magnificati

48、on as high as 15 may be required. For comfortable viewing in such cases, a magnifier of Type C.2 is recommended. C.5 It is possible to modify the optical system of a bi-ocular magnifier so as to produce a quasi-stereoscopic image. With regard to stereoscopic magnifiers, the user should satisfy himse

49、lf that the main purpose of the inspection warrants the choice of such equipment. v is the distance, in millimetres, of the image from the lens; u is the distance, in millimetres, of the object from the lens; D is the distance a , in millimetres, of normal or corrected distinct vision; f is the focal length, in millimetres, of the lens. a Sometimes standardized at250mm, but for practical purposes a more realistic value is350mm. v u -1 D f - + = Linear magnification Diameter of lens (field of view) Working distance (approxima
