7.1 Testing timing Cylinder weld DR testing shall generally be carried out after welding and before heat treatment. For products made of materials that are prone to delayed cracking after welding, testing shall be carried out 24 hours after welding is completed. For products made of materials prone to reheat cracking, another test shall be carried out after heat treatment. 7.2 Surface preparation The weld surface of the gas cylinder under inspection shall not have grease, rust, oxide scale or other factors that affect the inspection (such as rough welding waves, surface grooves between multi-layer welding beads, and surface pits, gouges, spatter, weld scars, welding slag, etc. of the weld). The irregular state of the surface shall not affect the correctness and completeness of the inspection results. The weld bead height shall not be greater than 2 mm, otherwise it shall be ground.

8 Testing technology and process

8.1 Testing technology level The X-ray testing technology level specified in this document shall meet the AB level specified in NB/T 47013.2 - medium sensitivity technology. 8.2 Imaging method Imaging shall be performed using a motionless detection method. 8.3 X-ray energy selection The tube voltage selected for cylinder weld DR examination should be higher than that selected for film photography. Note. Using a calibrated X-ray DR system and a higher tube voltage can achieve a higher signal-to-noise ratio and sensitivity; alternatively, the exposure time can be significantly reduced without reducing the sensitivity, thus improving the efficiency. The curve in Figure 1 can be used as the recommended value of X-ray tube voltage for different materials and different penetration thicknesses. During testing, the tube voltage can be selected within the range of ±20% of the recommended value according to the workpiece and equipment conditions. ......
