11、dization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to

12、 be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used

13、 to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of

14、 the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

18、)Steel Ultrasonic testing of steel flat products of thickness equal to or greater than 6 mm1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a method for the automated and/or manual ultrasonic testing of uncoated steel flat products for internal discontinuities by the pulse echo technique. It is applicab

19、le to non-alloyed or alloyed steel flat products, in a nominal thickness range of 6 mm to 200 mm. However, this International Standard may be applied to austenitic and austenitic-ferritic steels, provided that the difference between the amplitude of the noise signal and that of the echo detection th

20、reshold is sufficient for the limit fixed. Unless otherwise agreed, for testing of steel flat products for welded steel tubes, ISO 10893-9 applies.Other techniques of testing (e.g. by transmission) or other test equipment may be used at the manufacturers discretion, provided that they give identical

21、 results to those obtained under the conditions of this International Standard. In the event of a dispute, only the method defined in this International Standard will prevail.Testing of flat products, of thickness less than 6 mm and over 200 mm, may be the subject of special agreements between the p

22、arties concerned.Testing is normally carried out in the place of production or on the premises of the supplier.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

23、tion cited applies.

29、testing can be either fully automated with no operator involvement or semi-automated when the operator performs basic equipment operation functions.3.6dead zonezone adjacent to the scanning surface within which reflectors of interest are not revealed4 PrincipleThe method used is based on the reflect

30、ion of ultrasonic waves (generally longitudinal waves), the mean direction of which is perpendicular to the main surface of the flat products.The examination consists of the following:a) locating any discontinuity by comparing the amplitude of the discontinuity echo with the amplitude of the echo of

31、 a flat-bottomed hole of a given diameter and located at the same depth as the discontinuity (DGS-method);NOTE Only those discontinuities giving an echo height exceeding in amplitude that of the echo obtained with the reference flat-bottomed hole are taken into consideration.b) Then determining its

32、area, the contour of the discontinuity being defined by the positions of the centre of the probe corresponding to an echo amplitude of half the maximum amplitude of the discontinuity under consideration (6 dB drop technique).The examination shall be carried out from one side only.In the case of auto

33、mated testing, the location of a discontinuity and the determination of its area can be realized using different algorithms together with high scanning density. In case of dispute, the 6 dB drop technique in 8.1.1 should be used.5 PersonnelAutomated testing shall be carried out only by qualified per

34、sonnel under the responsibility of Level 2 or Level 3 qualified person. Qualification shall include regular training, success in examination, experience and satisfactory vision test according to the standards mentioned below. Manual testing shall be carried out only by personnel qualified at minimum

35、 Level 1 and under the responsibility of Level 2 or Level 3 qualified person.Qualification of the responsible person shall be in accordance with ISO 9712, ISO 11484 or an appropriate national/ regional standard.NOTE Examples of appropriate standards are listed in the Bibliography.2 ISO 2016 All righ
