17、1371-1:1997. Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 190 requested CEN/TC 190/WG 11 “Surface inspection“ to revise the following standard: EN 1371-1, Founding Liquid penetrant testing Part 1: Sand, gravity die and low pressure die castings This is one of two European Standards for l
18、iquid penetrant testing for castings. The other standard is: EN 1371-2, Founding Liquid penetrant inspection Part 2: Investment castings Annex G provides details of significant technical changes between this European Standard and the previous edition. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulation
19、s, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, N
20、etherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. BS EN 1371-1:2011EN 1371-1:2011 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard complements the general principles of liquid penetrant testing given in EN 571-1 for the additional requirem
21、ents for castings. Liquid penetrant testing as well as any other non-destructive examination method is part of a general or specific assessment of the quality of a casting to be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser at the time of acceptance of the order. BS EN 1371-1:2011EN 1371-1:2011
22、(E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a liquid penetrant testing method for castings produced in conventional sand moulds, by gravity and low-pressure die casting, except for investment castings and high-pressure die castings. This European Standard applies to all cast metals, except copper
23、-tin and/or copper-tin-lead alloy castings, where copper is the major constituent. 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 references, the latest edition of the
24、 referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 473, Non-destructive testing Qualification and certification of NDT personnel General principles EN 571-1, Non destructive testing Penetrant testing Part 1: General principles EN ISO 3059, Non-destructive testing Penetrant testing and magne
25、tic particle testing Viewing conditions (ISO 3059:2001) 3 Conditions for liquid penetrant testing The manufacturing stage(s) when liquid penetrant testing is to be performed shall be clearly defined by agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser by the time of ordering. The methods detailed
26、 in this standard shall only apply to the agreed surfaces of castings and the percentage or number of castings to be checked. For each agreed area of the casting to be inspected, the following shall be indicated: type of discontinuity; severity level. This information enables the manufacturer to ass
27、ess the additional testing and operations involved. Sensitivity can differ depending on the method of liquid penetrant testing selected and surface condition. Therefore the liquid penetrants used and the method agreed shall fit to detect the minimum required severity level. The type of discontinuity
28、 and the severity level can vary depending on the area of the casting inspected (see Table 1 and Table 2). The conversion from the severity levels specified in EN 1371-1:1997, Table 3 1, to the severity levels specified in Table 2 of the present edition is given in Table A.1. 4 Method of testing 4.1
29、 Operating mode Testing shall be carried out as described in EN 571-1. The characteristics of the penetrant materials shall be checked in accordance with specifications to be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser. BS EN 1371-1:2011EN 1371-1:2011 (E) 6 4.2 Qualification of the operators U
30、nless otherwise agreed, testing shall be performed by personnel, qualified in accordance with EN 473 or by a certification scheme which is considered to be equivalent. 4.3 Surface preparation The surface to be inspected shall be clean, free from rust, sand, scale, moulding and mould coating residues
31、, oil, grease, paint or any other contaminant which can interfere with a correct testing. Shot blasting is not recommended prior to liquid penetrant testing, except for sand moulded castings. If shot blasting is necessary, it shall be as light as possible, in order to avoid sealing or closing up pos
32、sible discontinuities. If the risk of sealing or closing up possible discontinuities is unacceptable then blasting shall be followed by chemical etching in order to enable detection of discontinuities. The chemical composition of the etching bath and other parameters such as concentration, temperatu
33、re, immersion time neutralizing and rinsing, if applicable, shall be recorded. To detect the smallest indication to be considered, the surface finish shall be in accordance with Table 3, unless otherwise specified at the time of ordering. NOTE It is recommended that the assessment of surface finish
34、is carried out using a visual cast-surface roughness comparator, see EN 1370. 4.4 Conditions of testing The testing shall be carried out with the naked eye or at a maximum magnification of 3 and viewing conditions in conformity with EN ISO 3059. 5 Acceptance criteria 5.1 Indications of discontinuiti
35、es 5.1.1 General The indication of discontinuities can be non-linear (isolated or clustered), aligned or linear. Although liquid penetrant testing cannot generally be used to determine the size of detected discontinuities, it allows discontinuities to be assessed by measurement of the length L of th
36、e indication. In the following clauses: L indicates length; W indicates width; P indicates liquid penetrant; SP indicates non-linear isolated indication; CP indicates non-linear clustered indication; AP indicates aligned indication; LP indicates linear indication. NOTE Based on the principle of the
37、test method, the operator evaluates the size of the indications, not the real size of discontinuities. BS EN 1371-1:2011EN 1371-1:2011 (E) 7 5.1.2 Criteria The physical discontinuities shall give either a non-linear, linear or aligned liquid penetrant testing indication. The various types of penetra
38、nt indication can correspond to the discontinuities (A, B, C, etc.) shown in Annex B (informative). 5.2 Definition of liquid penetrant indications a) Linear indication (LP). An indication with a largest dimension three or more times its smallest dimension (i.e. L 3 W); b) Non-linear indication. An i
39、ndication with a largest dimension less than three times its smallest dimension (i.e. L 50 mm LP 001 AP 001 LP 001 AP 001 LP 001 AP 001 LP 001 AP 001 LP 01 AP 01 LP 01 AP 01 LP 01 AP 01 LP 01 AP 01 LP 1 AP 1 LP 1 AP 1 LP 2 AP 2 LP 2 AP 2 LP 1 AP 1 LP 3 AP 3 LP 3 AP 3 LP 2 AP 2 LP 1 AP 1 LP 4 AP 4 LP
