How to choose sensitivity standards.

Types of sensitivity standards, GOSTs for their application. The process of working with sensitivity standards.

In radiographic testing, there are factors that can worsen the final image blur: short focal length, exposure to high-speed film, use of fluorescent screens, large thickness of the test object. The smaller the blur, the smaller the defect we can find. Sensitivity standards are used to evaluate the blur and determine the true size of the detected defect.

Standards are an integral part of radiographic testing. But there are situations when standards cannot be used. Here is what is written on this subject in GOST 7512-82: «If it is impossible to set sensitivity standards … the procedure for conducting control without setting sensitivity standards … should be provided for in the technical documentation for the control or acceptance of welded joints.»

There are two documents regulating the work with standards. These are domestic GOST 7512-82 and adapted foreign GOST ISO 17636-1-2017. Each of them defines its own type of standards, their marking and location relative to the weld. We will consider these parameters on the basis of both GOSTs.

Danila Ksenofontov ,
technical specialist

1. Types and markings of standards

Standards are made of a metal or alloy whose base is similar in chemical composition to that of the weld being tested. Basically, standards are made of stainless steel so that they do not lose their properties over time. For specialized tasks, it is possible to manufacture standards from other materials.

1.1. Standards according to GOST 7512-82

To determine the sensitivity, GOST 7512-82 prescribes the use of three types of standards: groove, wire or plate. On an x-ray, the sensitivity must correspond to one of the three sensitivity classes: 1, 2, 3. The listing goes from best to worst — in descending order.

The reference material is indicated by a number. So alloys based on iron are indicated by the number 1, aluminum and magnesium — 2, titanium — 3, copper — 4, nickel — 5. The number also indicates the size of the standard. The larger the number, the larger the size of the standard, and the larger the size of the elements of the standard: grooves / wires / steps. The first number indicates the material, the second or two — the size.

Three sizes of groove gauge: 1, 2 and 3.
Hole marking helps
to interpret images

Groove gauges

The groove gauge of sensitivity is a plate with six grooves of the same depth. In total, groove standards have three sizes: 1,2 and 3.

The depth of each of the 6 grooves corresponds to the value h, prescribed in GOST 7512-82. The deeper the groove, the easier it is to see it on an x-ray. The smaller the element of the standard we see, the higher the sensitivity of the control.

Gradation of recesses of the groove standard

According to GOST 7512-82, each groove standard must be marked. In total, there are three types of markings. The first type is marking with lead signs in the part where there are no grooves. The first number indicates the material, the second — the size. This type of marking is relevant for standards that do not have holes.

Standards without holes can be identified by markings.

are applied with an electric pencil. The second type is marking in accordance with Table 2 (Appendix 3), “Marking of groove standards”. Holes of the same size are used for marking, the number of which indicates the size of the standard. Notches at the end of the standard are used to designate the material. Without notches — iron. One triangular — aluminum and magnesium, two triangular — titanium, three — copper, one rectangular — nickel.

The third type is marking in accordance with Table 3 (Appendix 3), «Marking groove standards with holes. » The size of the standard is determined by the width of the standard itself and the size of the hole. The material is determined by the number of holes. Titanium — one hole, iron — two holes, nickel — three holes, copper — 4 holes.

Wire Gauges

Wire Gauges are seven wires of specific lengths and diameters packaged in a flexible transparent plastic case. In total, wire standards have four sizes: from the first to the fourth. The material and size of the standards is indicated by a marking located in the upper pocket of the case.

The diameter of each of the 7 wires corresponds to the value d prescribed in GOST 7512-82. The smaller the diameter of the wire, the more difficult it is to see it on an x-ray. Accordingly, the more wires you see, the higher the sensitivity of the control.

Gradation of wire standard diameters

From the point of view of GOST 7512-82, wire standards are equivalent to groove standards. But in fact, they have different degrees of detection. It is more difficult to get a certain sensitivity using a wire standard, since it is more difficult to see the wire than the groove. Accordingly, when using wire standards, the image quality should be higher.

The effort to get a higher quality image will be more: you will have to increase the focal length, switch to a higher contrast film and abandon fluorescent screens. All this will lead to an increase in exposure time.

The wire standard must be replaced if the plastic sheath is damaged or if corrosion is found on the wires.

Plate Gauge

Plate Gauges

A plate gauge is a plate with cylindrical holes of fixed shapes and sizes. Plate standards according to GOST 7512-82 have two holes: small and large. The sensitivity of the control is determined by the smallest hole that can be seen in the picture.

Form of plate standards. The large letter D denotes
the diameter of the large circle, the small d is the diameter of the small circle times the thickness.

Plate standards according to GOST 7512-82 are almost never used in practice due to the versatility of groove and wire standards.

1.2. Standards according to GOST ISO 17636-1–2017

GOST ISO 17636-1–2017 introduces the concept of an image quality indicator (IQI). According to this standard, wire and step standards can be used. They have other markings and other sizes than Russian ones. From the point of view of GOST ISO 17636-1-2017, wire standards are equivalent to plate standards.

On x-ray, the sensitivity must correspond to one of the two control classes: A and B. The listing is from worst to best — ascending. A — the main method of control, class B — improved. But even class A is more demanding than the 1st sensitivity class according to GOST 7512-82.

The material and size of the standards are indicated by alphanumeric designation using markings on the top of the plastic case. The first number indicates the minimum number of wire or hole in the standard. Next are two letters indicating the material, for example Fe — iron. The last three letters indicate the standard.

Wire standards

The diameter of each of the 7 wires corresponds to the value d prescribed in ISO 19232-1, which is referred to by GOST ISO 17636-1-2017. The smaller the diameter of the wire, the more difficult it is to see it on an x-ray. Accordingly, the more wires you see, the higher the sensitivity of the control.

Wire gauges must be replaced if corrosion is found on the wires or if the plastic sheath is damaged.

2. How to work with

standards

Both GOSTs prescribe to place standards from the X-ray side. GOST 7512-82 states: «Sensitivity standards should be installed in the controlled area from the side facing the radiation source.» It is echoed by GOST ISO 17636-1-2017: «IQI should be placed on the surface of the object of control from the side of the radiation source…».

In some cases, it is not advisable to place the standard on the side of the radiation source. Firstly, when checking through two walls, the standard located on the side of the apparatus will be significantly enlarged and blurred in the image.

The groove gauge is enlarged and blurred due to its location on the side of the radiation source

Secondly, it is difficult to place the gauge inside the pipe during panoramic control. The crawler allows you to center the device inside the pipe and deliver it a couple of kilometers to the place of control. It is difficult to crawl such a distance along the pipe and fix the standard from the inside.

The universal way is to place the standard in the film cassette. Both documents allow this. GOST ISO 17636-1-2017: «If IQI cannot be placed on the side of the radiation source, then they are placed on the side of the film.» GOST 7512-82: “If it is impossible to set standards from the source side … it is allowed to install sensitivity standards from the side of the film cassette.”

When placing the standards together with the film, behind the object of control, you can play it safe. To do this, during the inspection, you need to see one groove / wire / step more than required. But all this is at the discretion of the flaw detectorist, or the one who sets the task for him.

2.1. Work with standards according to GOST 7512-82

The choice of standard size begins with the determination of the radiation thickness. It consists of the thickness of the object in the direction of transillumination, including the reinforcement bead. Further, according to the GOST 7512-82 table, based on the translucent thickness and the required sensitivity class, we determine the sensitivity of the control.

The reference must have grooves/wires/holes with dimensions appropriate to the sensitivity. For example, when testing a pipe with a wall thickness of 5 mm, it is necessary to take standard No. 1 with element sizes from 0.10 to 0.60 mm. If we take standard No. 3 with element sizes from 1.5 to 4 mm, then this standard will not allow us to determine the image quality class, because the obtained values exceed the required requirements.

Groove standards

Depending on the test object, there are two positions of the groove standard relative to the weld. Typically, the standard is placed at a distance of at least 5 mm from the seam with the direction of the grooves across the seam. And when checking the circumferential seams of pipelines with a diameter of less than 100 mm, it is allowed to install the standard at a distance of at least 5 mm from the seam with the direction of the grooves along the seam.

To determine the sensitivity of the control, we must identify the smallest depth of the groove in the image. For example, let’s illuminate a pipe with a wall thickness of 10 mm. In the picture, we will see, for example, 6 grooves out of 6. Using the GOST table, we will determine the sensitivity of the control.

We know the reference number, for example — 1. We take the smallest groove that we see — 6. We look at the size table (tab. 2) — it corresponds to the depth of the groove h6. The value is 0.10.
In the second table, select a row according to the thickness of the control object. 10 mm fall into the category with values over 9 mm to 12 mm inclusive. The resulting value of the sensitivity of our image corresponds to the 1st sensitivity class.

Wire Gauges

In order to determine the sensitivity of the control, we must identify the smallest wire in the image. To do this, we place a standard with the direction of the wires across the seam on a pipe with a diameter of 720. The wall thickness is the same — 10 mm. In the picture, we will see, for example, 3 wires out of 7. Using the GOST table, we will determine the sensitivity of the control.

We know the standard number, for example — 12 (the first digit is the material, the second is the standard number). We take the smallest wire that we see — 3. We look at the size table (tab. 2) — it corresponds to the groove depth d3. The value is 0.25.
In the table of sensitivity classes (Table 6), select a line in accordance with the thickness of the test object. 10 mm fall into the category with values over 9 mm to 12 mm inclusive. The resulting sensitivity value of our image corresponds to sensitivity class 2. The value of 0.25 belongs to the second sensitivity class with a threshold up to 0.30, since the first class values of 0.20 have already been exceeded.

Plate sensitivity standards are rarely used. We failed to find a real picture,
so we used Photoshop to illustrate the reference No. 12

Plate standards

Plate standards are placed along the seam at a distance of at least 5 mm from it or directly on the seam with the direction of the standard across the seam so that images of markings of the standard were not superimposed on the image of the seam in the picture.

To determine the sensitivity of the control, we must identify the smallest hole in the image. The object of control is the same — a pipe with a diameter of 720 mm and a wall thickness of 10 mm.

We know the standard number, for example — 12 (the first digit is the material, the second is the standard number). Let’s say we see both holes. In the size table, we look at the size of the small hole for this standard — 0.2.
In the table of sensitivity classes (Table 6), select a line in accordance with the thickness of the test object. 10 mm fall into the category with values over 9up to 12 mm inclusive. The resulting sensitivity value of our image corresponds to sensitivity class 1.

2.2. Work with standards according to GOST ISO 17636-1-2017

The choice of standard size depends on the nominal thickness in the case of 1-wall testing or the translucent thickness in the case of 2-wall testing. It consists of the thickness of the object in the direction of transillumination, including the reinforcement bead. Further, in Appendix B, we select a table corresponding to the control scheme, the type of standard, its position and quality class. Further, according to the table, we determine the number of the wire or hole. Select an IQI containing a wire or hole with that number.

Photograph with wire gauge 10 FE EN. ISO and EN markings are identical

Wire standards

When using the wire type IQI, the wires must be perpendicular to the weld. At the same time, at least 10 mm of the wire length should be visible in the area with a uniform optical density, which usually occurs on the base metal adjacent to the weld.

Let us give the control conditions. The object is a pipe with a diameter of 720 mm and a wall thickness of 10 mm. When checking through two walls, the translucent thickness will be twice as large, that is, 20 mm. Plus 1 mm on the reinforcement roller. Quality class — A. The standard is placed on the side of the film. The exposure was carried out through two walls.
Look at table B.9. For a given thickness, it is required to identify wire number W 12. We know the number of the standard — W 10. We see 6 wires out of 7. So the control sensitivity turned out to be W 15. We see wire W 12, which means it is better than the required sensitivity.

ISO and EN marked standards are the same as

Step standards

When using a stepped IQI with holes, it must be positioned so that the hole of the required size is located as close to the weld as possible. In the case of a stepped hole type IQI, if there are two holes with the same diameter, both must be distinguishable for the step to be considered visible.

See table B.10. For a given thickness, it is required to identify a hole number H 7. We know the standard number — H 6. We see 4 steps with holes out of 6. So the control sensitivity turned out to be H 8. We do not see holes on the step H 7, therefore, we have not achieved the desired quality . You will have to use the same reference, but with different exposure settings.

Let’s give the control conditions. The object is a pipe with a diameter of 720 and a wall thickness of 10 mm. Quality class — A. The standard is located on the side of the film. The control was carried out through two walls.

Standards for digital and computed radiography systems

Two-wire standard according to GOST ISO 17636-2-2017

To determine the image quality using digital systems and computer radiography according to GOST ISO 17636-2-2017, special two-wire standards are produced. It is a Plexiglas plate with pairs of platinum wires soldered into it.

From pair to pair of wires with the same diameter, the diameter decreases. We need to determine whether we can distinguish between two adjacent wires or not. This will characterize the quality of the final image of the system itself.

4. Metrological support of standards

Previously, all standards were only calibrated. The actual dimensions of grooves and wires were measured. No one thought about entering into the State Register. But recently standards with verification have appeared. The calibration interval is 5 years, one of the largest in the field of non-destructive testing.

TiC- The VLM is a version of the TiC CW TiC laser using an integrated pump laser from IPG Photonics’ VLM series. The main advantage of this model is the high average output power of TiC at its low specific cost due to the use of a highly efficient fiber pump laser. The reviewed version of TiC has the same tuning range as a similar model pumped in the form of a green DPSS laser, a similar set of options and a comparable linewidth, but the short-term stability of the average power is slightly lower. Another difference between the TiC-VLM system and a CW TiC laser pumped by a DPSS laser is a different cooling system configuration: the pumping control unit requires forced water cooling, which is realized by using a branched cooling circuit and a chiller with a higher cooling capacity. This model is the most affordable high power titanium-sapphire laser, and it is also available in one of three standard configurations: Auto, Basic or Manual. Each of these versions is based on a monolithic thermally stabilized case, in which one or two standards can optionally be installed, narrowing the generation linewidth to 40 GHz and to 2 GHz, respectively. In addition, each of the three versions can be equipped with an additional module for outputting radiation into a single-mode optical fiber with an FC standard connector. The Auto version of the is, like the standard TiC series laser, the most automated. It contains a built-in electronics unit that implements the functions of remote control of the wavelength, monitoring of laser parameters, as well as an integrated optical power meter and spectrometer. This version of the laser works on the ‘Hands Free’ principle and requires connection to a personal computer via two USB interfaces (or one USB and RS-232 interface) to control the pump laser and directly the titanium-sapphire laser. Accordingly, the system is accompanied by two software packages for independent control of the laser and its pumping. The control program for a titanium-sapphire laser allows you to control its current parameters in real time and control the tuning of the radiation wavelength in one click.
In the “Basic” version of the TiC-VLM, wavelength tuning can be performed by the operator using a wired control panel or a computer and a simplified version of the TiC laser control program (software). The «basic» version of the laser does not have a built-in spectrometer and power meter. Despite this, the software used by this version provides the ability to store in the laser’s memory the calibration values for the wavelength of the radiation produced using the user’s external spectrometer. In the future, the current wavelength of laser radiation displayed on the computer screen is automatically determined by the calibrated position of the moving elements in the laser cavity. This version is also equipped with a pump laser control program, which requires the use of a PC with one free USB or RS-232 interface. «Manual» version of TiC-VLM also includes software for remote control of the pump laser, but excludes the possibility of connecting the titanium-sapphire laser to a personal computer: the radiation wavelength is controlled manually by the operator using micrometer screws that adjust the orientation of the spectral-selective laser elements. In this version, there is no built-in spectrometer, power meter, or any electronics in the titanium-sapphire part of the system. The «manual» version thus requires only the power supply of the pump laser, while the titanium-sapphire part is completely passive in terms of power supply. .
