Upon agreement, Practice E273 shall bee

38、mployed in addition to one of the full periphery tests. Therange of tube sizes that may be examined by each method shallbe subject to the limitations in the scope of that practice. Incase of conflict between these methods and practices and thisspecification, the requirements of this specification sh

39、all pre-vail6.5.2 The following information is for the benefit of the userof this specification.6.5.2.1 Calibration standards for the nondestructive electrictest are convenient standards for calibration of nondestructivetesting equipment only. For several reasons, including shape,orientation, width,

40、 etc., the correlation between the signalproduced in the electric test from an imperfection and fromcalibration standards is only approximate. A purchaser inter-ested in ascertaining the nature (type, size, location, andorientation) of discontinuities that can be detected in thespecific application

41、of these examinations should discuss thiswith the manufacturer of the tubular product.6.5.2.2 The ultrasonic examination referred to in this speci-fication is intended to detect longitudinal discontinuities havinga reflective area similar to or larger than the calibrationreference notches specified

42、in 6.5.8. The examination may notdetect circumferentially oriented imperfections or short, deepdefects.6.5.2.3 The eddy current examination referenced in thisspecification has the capability of detecting significantdiscontinuities, especially of the short abrupt type. PracticesE309 and E426 contain

43、additional information regarding thecapabilities and limitations of eddy-current examination.6.5.2.4 The hydrostatic test referred to in 6.4.1 is a testmethod provided for in many product specifications. This testhas the capability of finding defects of a size permitting the testfluid to leak throug

44、h the tube wall and may be either visuallyseen or detected by a loss of pressure. This test may not detectvery tight, through-the-wall defects or defects that extend anappreciable distance into the wall without complete penetra-tion.6.5.2.5 A purchaser interested in ascertaining the nature(type, siz

45、e, location, and orientation) of discontinuities that canbe detected in the specific application of these examinationsshould discuss this with the manufacturer of the tubularproducts.6.5.3 Time of Examination: Nondestructive examination forspecification acceptance shall be performed after all deform

46、a-tion processing, heat treating, welding, and straightening op-erations. This requirement does not preclude additional testingat earlier stages in the processing.6.5.4 Surface Condition:6.5.4.1 All surfaces shall be free of scale, dirt, grease, paint,or other foreign material that could interfere w

47、ith interpretationof test results. The methods used for cleaning and preparing thesurfaces for examination shall not be detrimental to the basemetal or the surface finish.6.5.4.2 Excessive surface roughness or deep scratches canproduce signals that interfere with the test.6.5.5 Extent of Examination

48、:6.5.5.1 The relative motion of the tube and thetransducer(s), coil(s), or sensor(s) shall be such that the entiretube surface is scanned, except for end effects as noted in6.5.5.2.6.5.5.2 The existence of end effects is recognized, and theextent of such effects shall be determined by the manufactur

49、er,and, if requested, shall be reported to the purchaser. Othernondestructive tests may be applied to the end areas, subject toagreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.6.5.6 Operator Qualifications:6.5.6.1 The test unit operator shall be certified in accordancewith SNT-TC-1A, or an equivalent documented standardagreeable to both purchaser and manufacturer.6.5.7 Test Conditions:6.5.7.1 For examination by the ultrasonic method, the mini-mum nominal transducer frequency shall be 2.0 MHz, and themaximum transducer size shall be 1.5 in.
