The content of thi

3、s Standard Practice is the resulting efforts of competent and experienced volunteers to provide an effective, clear, and non-exclusive standard that will benefit the industry as a whole. This MSS Standard Practice describes minimal requirements and is intended as a basis for common practice by the m

4、anufacturer, the user, and the general public. The existence of an MSS Standard Practice does not in itself preclude the manufacture, sale, or use of products not conforming to the Standard Practice. Mandatory conformance to this Standard Practice is established only by reference in other documents

5、such as a code, specification, sales contract, or public law, as applicable. MSS has no power, nor does it undertake, to enforce or certify compliance with this document. Any certification or other statement of compliance with the requirements of this Standard Practice shall not be attributable to M

6、SS and is solely the responsibility of the certifier or maker of the statement. “Unless indicated otherwise within this MSS Standard Practice, other standards documents referenced to herein are identified by the date of issue that was applicable to this Standard Practice at the date of approval of t

7、his MSS Standard Practice (see Annex A). This Standard Practice shall remain silent on the validity of those other standards of prior or subsequent dates of issue even though applicable provisions may not have changed.” By publication of this Standard Practice, no position is taken with respect to t

8、he validity of any potential claim(s) or of any patent rights in connection therewith. MSS shall not be held responsible for identifying any patent rights. Users are expressly advised that determination of patent rights and the risk of infringement of such rights are entirely their responsibility. I

U.S. customary units in this Standard Practice are the standard; the SI (metric) units are for reference only. Substantive changes in this 2014 edition are “flagged” by parallel bars as shown on the ma

MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-93ii FOREWORD This MSS Standard Practice, SP-93, Quality Standard for Steel Castings

15、 and Forgings for Valves, Flanges, Fittings, and Other Piping Components Liquid Penetrant Examination Method, was originally adopted in 1982 for the purpose of providing a uniform method of Liquid Penetrant Examination. It was specifically developed for the valve/piping industry but may be used in a

16、ny application where this type of examination is suitable. This Standard Practice was reaffirmed in 1987 with essentially no changes. The Third edition was reaffirmed in 1992 with essentially no changes. The 1999 edition included minor revisions and was re-formatted to conform to MSS publication pra

17、ctices. The 2008 edition included minor revisions and was re-formatted to conform to MSS publication practices. This 2014 edition includes editorial corrections, a clarification to Scope in Section 1, update of Section 7 and Table 1, and an update of Annex A references. It was also re-formatted to c

18、onform to current MSS publication practices.

SCOPE 1.1 This Standard Practice provides methods and acceptance standards for liquid penetrant examination of steel castings and forgings for valves, flanges, fittings and other pipi

20、ng components. It is applicable to examination of repairs as well as to initial examination of castings and forgings. 1.2 The methods contained in this Standard Practice provide uniform procedures that will produce satisfactory and consistent results upon which the Acceptance Standards of Table 1 ma

21、y be used. 1.3 This Standard Practice includes the examination of pressure containing castings and forgings. 2.

22、EFINITIONS 3.1 Pressure Containing Part A part whose failure would permit the contained fluid to escape to the atmosphere. For valves, the body and bonnet (cover) and end pieces (of multi-piece valve bodies, e.g., ball valves) shall be considered the pressure containing parts. 3.2 Indication The vis

23、ible bleedout of liquid from a discontinuity. 3.3 Linear Indication An indication in which the length is three or more times the width. 3.4 Rounded Indication An indication which is circular or elliptical, with its length less than three (3) times its width. 4. PROCEDURE 4.1 All exterior and accessi

24、ble interior surfaces of the pressure containing parts shall be examined by the liquid penetrant method. Interior surfaces not accessible because of configuration, such as small holes or bores, need not be examined. Examination may occur prior to machining or after machining at the manufacturers opt

25、ion. 4.2 Liquid penetrant examination procedure shall be in accordance with ASTM E165/E165M. 5. ACCEPTANCE STANDARDS 5.1 Acceptance Standards for liquid penetrant indications shall be as shown in Table 1. 5.2 Broad areas of pigmentation which would mask indications of defects are unacceptable. 6. EV

26、ALUATION OF INDICATIONS 6.1 All indications shall be examined in terms of the Acceptance Standards of Table 1. 6.2 Any indications which exceed the Acceptance Standards in Table 1 shall be regarded as representing discontinuities and shall be re-examined to verify whether or not actual discontinuiti

27、es are present. Surface conditioning may precede the re-examination. 6.3 An indication may be larger than the discontinuity which causes it. However, the size of the indication and not the size of the discontinuity is the basis of acceptance or rejection. QUALITY STANDARD FOR STEEL CASTINGS AND FORG

28、INGS FOR VALVES, FLANGES, FITTINGS, AND OTHER PIPING COMPONENTS LIQUID PENETRANT EXAMINATION METHOD MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-932 7. REMOVAL AND REPAIR OF DISCONTINUITIES 7.1 Piping parts and components rejected through the application of the Acceptance Standards in Table 1 may be repaired. If weldin

29、g is required, it shall be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with the requirements specified in the applicable steel casting or forging specifications. 7.2 Discontinuities in excess of those represented by acceptable indications shall be removed by suitable means. If removal of surf

30、ace discontinuities to an acceptable level does not result in reducing wall thickness below the acceptable minimum, then the area shall be blended smoothly into the surrounding surface. Where removal of discontinuities result in a wall thickness that is below the acceptable minimum, then the resulta

31、nt cavity may be repaired by welding. Welded areas shall be blended smoothly into the surrounding surface. 7.3 Areas which as a result of liquid penetrant examination, have been weld repaired or from which discontinuities have been removed without requirement for weld repair, shall be re-examined by

32、 the liquid penetrant method. 7.4 The Acceptance Standards for liquid penetrant re-examination required under Section 7.3 shall be as shown in Table 1. 8. PERSONNEL REQUIREMENTS 8.1 The manufacturer shall be responsible for assigning qualified personnel to perform liquid penetrant examinations in co

33、nformance with the requirements of this Standard Practice. 8.2 A qualification record of personnel considered suitable by the manufacturer to perform examinations in accordance with this Standard Practice shall be available upon request. ASNT SNT-TC-1A provides a recommended practice for qualifying

34、personnel. MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-933 TABLE 1 Acceptance Standard Criteria A. CASTINGS Maximum acceptable indications are as follows: Linear Indications as defined in Section 3.3 0.3 in.
