1 Scope

This document specifies techniques for the manual ultrasonic testing of fusion-welded joints in metallic materials of thickness not less than 8 mm which exhibit low ultrasonic attenuation (especially that due to scatter) at object temperatures from 0°C to 60°C. It is primarily intended for use on full penetration welded joints where both the welded and the parent material are ferritic. Where material-dependent ultrasonic values are specified in this document, they are based on steels having an ultrasonic sound velocity of (5920 ± 50) m/s for longitudinal waves and (3255 ± 30) m/s for transverse waves. This document specifies four testing levels, each corresponding to a different probability of detection of imperfections. Guidance on the selection of testing levels A, B, and C is given in Annex A. This document specifies that the requirements of testing level D, which is intended for special applications, be in accordance with general requirements. Testing level D can only be used when defined by specification. This includes tests of metals other than ferritic steel, tests on partial penetration welds, tests with automated equipment, and tests at object temperatures outside the range 0°C to 60°C. This document can be used for the assessment of discontinuities, for acceptance purposes, by either of the following techniques: a) evaluation based primarily on length and echo amplitude of the discontinuity; b) evaluation based on characterization and sizing of the discontinuity by probe movement techniques.

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 referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 5577, Non-destructive testing - Ultrasonic testing - Vocabulary NOTE: GB/T 12604.1-2020, Non-destructive testing -- Terminology -- Ultrasonic testing (ISO The evaluation levels for techniques 1 to 4 are given in ISO 11666:2018, Table A.1. NOTE: Evaluation grade is also called evaluation level. 11.4 Transfer correction When separate blocks are used for establishing reference levels, a measurement shall be made of the transfer differences between test object and reference block, at a representative number of locations. Suitable techniques are described in ISO 16811. If the differences are less than or equal to 2 dB, correction is not required. If the differences are greater than 2 dB but smaller than or equal to 12 dB, they shall be compensated for. If transfer losses exceed 12 dB, the reason shall be considered and further preparation of the scanning surfaces shall be carried out, if applicable. When there are no apparent reasons for high correction values, the attenuation, at various locations on the test object, shall be measured and, where it is found to vary significantly, corrective actions shall be considered. 11.5 Signal-to-noise ratio During testing of the weld, the noise level, excluding spurious surface indications, shall remain at least 12 dB below the evaluation level. This requirement may be relaxed subject to specification.

12 Testing levels

Quality requirements for welded joints are mainly associated with the material, welding process and service conditions. To accommodate all of these requirements, this document specifies four testing levels (A, B, C, and D). From testing level A to testing level C, an increasing probability of detection is achieved by an increasing testing coverage, e.g., number of scans, surface dressing. Testing level D may be agreed for special application using a written procedure which shall take into account the general requirements of this document. In general, the testing levels are related to quality levels (e.g., ISO 5817). The appropriate testing level may be specified by standards for testing of welds (e.g., ISO 17635), product standards or other documents. When ISO 17635 is specified, the recommended testing levels are as given in Table 5. ......
