19、ariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2010, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2010. Attention is drawn

20、 to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

BS EN 12668-2:2010EN 12668-2:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard covers probes used for ultrasonic non-destructive examination in the following categories with centre frequencies in the range 0,5 MHz to 15 MHz, focusing and without focusing mea

24、ns: a) single or dual transducer contact probes generating compressional or shear waves; b) single transducer immersion probes. Where material-dependent ultrasonic values are specified in this document they are based on steels having a sound velocity of (5 920 50) m/s for longitudinal waves, and (3

25、255 30) m/s for transverse waves. Periodic tests for probes are not included in this document. Routine tests for the verification of probes using on-site methods are given in EN 12668-3. If parameters in addition to those specified in EN 12668-3 are to be verified during the probes life time, as agr

26、eed upon by the contracting parties, the methods of verification for these additional parameters should be selected from those given in this document. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
