    Non-Destructive Examination & Standard CF Acceptance For - Forgsd - Pipe Work Stub Pieces

    Uploaded by

    veeramalai
    This document outlines non-destructive testing procedures for forged pipe pieces, including visual inspection, magnetic particle inspection, and ultrasonic inspection. It specifies acceptable surface finishes and defect standards. Magnetic particle and ultrasonic testing must comply with British standards and be able to detect defects in any direction. Acceptance standards allow isolated defects up to 3mm but reject pieces with abnormal attenuation or that could interfere with later weld inspections.

    NON-DESTRUCTIVE EXAMINATION & STANDARD CF ACCEPTANCE

    FOR_FORGSD_PIPE WORK STUB PIECES

    1. GENERAL:

    This specification details the procedure for non-destructiv<


    examination applicable to forged stub pieces to be welded
    into pipe work, steam chest assemblies etc. The tests
    shall be carried out by the supplier after machining to
    the drawing dimensions*
    2* SURFACE FINISH:

    All surfaces shall be machined to a finish of 6.25 microns


    CLA or better, produced by a broad-nosed tool to permit
    ultrasonic and magnetic particle inspection*
    3. NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING PROCEDURE:

    3.1 Visual Examination:


    All surfaces shall be visually examined in a clean
    condition and any defects observed shall be reported.
    3.2 Magnetic Particle Inspection
    All surfaces shall be examined. Testing equipment,
    conditions and procedures shall be in accordance with
    BS_ 4124,. part 2* Techniques shall be such as to detect
    defects in any direction. Testing Materials Group 1 of
    B.S.4124 are not accepted (i.e.dry powder). Water based
    inks are not accepted. Application of magnetic particles
    shall be by the continuous method described in BS 4124.
    A portable flux indicator shall be used to demonstrate
    attainment of an adequate field strength. The attention
    of operators shall be drawn to the precautions described
    in BS. 4124 part 2 to minimise arcing and excessive
    heating of the forging surface at the point of prod contact,

    3*3 Ultrasonic Inspection


    Testing equipment shall comply with BS.4124 part 1. The
    forging shall be scanned on all external surfaces using
    a., frequency of 4.5 raHz. End to end tests shall be carried
    out, with single crystal longitudinal wave probes.
    3.2 Ulcrasonic Inspection : (Contd.../

    Racie1 tests shall be carried cut xith combined double


    longitudinal wave probes. In the case of flanged forgings
    the combined double probes shall be applied to the face
    of the flange instead of the circumference. A test block
    shall be available in ultrasonically similar steel containing
    3 mm flat bottomed holes at varying depths for setting of
    sensitivity and evaluation of indications.• The scanning
    sensitivity shall be established by obtaining a half screen
    echo from a 3 mm FBH at the maximum testing distance and
    increasing the sensitivity by 12 dbs. All indications half
    screen height shall be recorded. Groups of indications
    quarter screen height shall be recorded.

    4. ACCEPTANCE STANDARDS:
    4.1 Visual and Magnetic Particle Inspection

    Cracks are unacceptable. Other defects upto 6 mm in length


    and separated by 3 x L, where L is the length of the largest
    defect, are acceptable provided there are not more than
    three such defects in any area 150 mm x 150 mm. Any
    indications outside these levels may be cause for rejection
    but may be referred to Technical Services Division, BHEL
    Bhopal for concession.
    4
    "2 Ultrasonic Inspection

    Isolated defects up to 3 mm flat bottom hole with no probe


    movement are acceptable. Groups of defects giving maximum
    • indication greater than half screen height at the testing
    sensitivity, and individual defects with probe movement in
    excess of that established as appropriate for a 3 mm flat
    bottom hole at the relevant depth may be cause for rejection
    but may be reffered to Technical Services Division BHSL
    Bhopal for concession. Any condition which will cause
    interference with the later high sensitivity ultrasonic
    examination of the fabrication weld/welds (e.g.abnormally
    high "grass" level or attenuation due to coarse grain or
    inclusion clouds) will be cause for rejection.
