Within its programme of work, Technical Committee

21、 CEN/TC 133 requested CEN/TC 133/WG 3 “Copper tubes (installation and industrial)“ to revise the following document: EN 1971:1998, Copper and copper alloys Eddy current test for tubes This is one of two parts of the standard for the eddy current test for measuring defects on seamless round copper an

22、d copper alloy tubes. The other part is: EN 1971-2, Copper and copper alloys Eddy current test for measuring defects on seamless round copper and copper alloy tubes Part 2: Test with an internal probe on the inner surface In comparison with the first edition of EN 1971:1998, the following significan

23、t technical changes were made: split of and extension in two parts; modification of Scope introduction of the choice of test method with encircling coil or internal probe. DIN EN 1971-1:2012-02 EN 1971-1:2011 (E) 4 Introduction The eddy current test described in this European Standard has the object

24、ive of detecting during production potential leaks and serious defects in seamless round copper and copper alloy tubes. The eddy current test is able to detect material inhomogeneities and their positions throughout the length of tubes. The eddy current signals of material inhomogeneities are compar

25、ed with reference signals of artificially produced test defects. It is possible to identify these inhomogeneities on the inner and outer surfaces as well as within the tube wall. Since the distribution of eddy currents decreases as the distance from the test coil increases, the amplitude of defect s

26、ignals also decreases with increasing distance from the test coil. Thus the eddy current test with encircling test coil on the outer surface is less sensitive to defects on the inner surface. The purpose of this standard is not to define a method of measuring the actual extent of the material inhomo

27、geneities as the signal amplitude is dependent on, amongst other factors, volume, form and position of the inhomogeneity. Due to end effects, it is not possible to effectively test the ends of the tubes. The purchaser and the supplier could agree that the end effect may be overcome by cutting to len

28、gth after testing. DIN EN 1971-1:2012-02 EN 1971-1:2011 (E) 5 1 Scope This part of this European Standard specifies a procedure for the eddy current test with an encircling test coil for measuring defects on the outer surface of seamless round copper and copper alloy tubes. NOTE The eddy current tes

29、t method(s) required, together with the size range and acceptance level, are defined in the relevant product standard. The choice of the method for eddy current test: with an encircling test coil on the outer surface according EN 1971-1; or with an internal probe on the inner surface according EN 19

30、71-2; is at the discretion of the manufacturer if there are no other agreements between the purchaser and the supplier. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated

31、references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 473, Non-destructive testing Qualification and certification of NDT personnel General principles EN ISO 12718, Non-destructive testing Eddy current testing Vocabulary (ISO 12718:2008) 3 Terms and definit

32、ions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 12718 apply. 4 General requirements 4.1 Personnel qualification The eddy current test shall be made by operators trained in this technique and it shall be done under the responsibility of qualified staff. When agreed u

33、pon between the purchaser and the supplier, qualification of the personnel shall be certified according to EN 473. 4.2 Condition of tube to be tested Tubes shall be sufficiently clean and straight to permit satisfactory operation of the drive mechanism and eddy current test equipment. 4.3 Equipment

34、The driving mechanism shall drive the tube through the encircling coil as concentrically and vibration-free as possible. The variation in test sensitivity due to changes of speed and tube position within the encircling coil shall be maintained within 2 dB. Either encircling test coils or a system th

35、at involves relative rotational motion between the tube and either one or several surface probes can be used for testing (see Figures 1 and 2).

38、ace probe can have different forms, for example single coil or multiple coils with various configurations. Test speed shall be compatible with the coil excitation frequency. In the case of a test with relative rotational motion between the tube and the surface probe only, the linear speed shall be a

39、djusted in order to test the whole surface of the tube. DIN EN 1971-1:2012-02 EN 1971-1:2011 (E) 7 The distance between the probe and the outer surface of the tube shall be kept as small as possible so that the sensitivity of the test is sufficient. NOTE 3 For encircling coils, the usual frequencies

40、 are in the range 1 kHz to 125 kHz. 5 Reference standard tube Unless otherwise specified in the relevant product standard, a reference standard tube is made of a defect-free tube of the same dimensions and specified properties as the tube to be tested. During the reference test, the influence of dyn

41、amic conditions shall be taken into account. NOTE The producer can ensure that this requirement is met by the appropriate option subject to the type of the installation, such as: a) for control devices not in-line with production, the reference tube should be long enough to ensure the same dynamic c

42、onditions for the reference test as for normal line operating speed; or b) for in-line installations: the reference standard tube should be passed through the test equipment at the normal line operating speed; or the control devices should include a dynamic effect compensating unit to take into acco

43、unt the speed differences between the reference tube throughput speed and the normal line operating speed. Either the reference standard tube shall have three holes located on three generating lines at 120, or only one hole. If a reference standard tube with three holes is used, the holes shall be s

44、paced from each other and from each end, sufficiently to obtain separate signals from each hole without interference from the tube ends. If a reference standard tube with only one hole is used, then this tube shall be passed through the encircling coil three times with the tube being turned by 120.

45、The maximum drill diameter for the various dimension ranges is defined in the relevant product standards. Other reference standard tube types may be considered if they are demonstrated as more relevant for certain products; they shall be defined in the relevant product standards. 6 Acceptance criter

46、ia 6.1 Detection of local discontinuities by encircling coils systems Local discontinuities of the tubes, including beginning and end of long regular discontinuities and variations of long discontinuities, are detected as defects with encircling coils systems. The sorting limit shall be the smallest

47、 amplitude of the three signals produced by the hole or holes in the reference standard tube. 6.2 Detection of non-local discontinuities by encircling coils systems with lower detection levels Non-local discontinuities of the tube could be identified as defects by one of the methods defined for this

48、 purpose, according to the requirements of the relevant product standards. Some discontinuities of the tube, which individually are not considered as defective, might cause signals lower than the detection threshold of the normal sorting limit for local defects but higher than a second selected lower detection threshold Sl. The signals for the lower and normal detection thresholds are related by a ratio K2, which shall be determined by the manufacturer of the tube, as fol
