General Principles of Radiography Top view of developed film X-ray film PRINCIPLE-Differential Absorption and Penetration = more exposure = less exposure
Radiography X-Ray Gamma Ray
Ultrasonic Testing Make : Modsonic , Olympus Useful for weld inspection & material thickness measurements
Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging Ultrasonic thickness gauges measure the thickness of a part by measuring the time sound travels from the transducer through the material to the back end of a part, and then measures the time of reflection back to the transducer. The gauge then calculates the thickness based on the velocity of sound through the material being tested.
Equipment's: Instrument which measures thickness without Coating: a ) Modsonic Instruments which measures thickness with Coating: a ) Quanix 4200 b ) Positector c ) MG2-DL d ) 37-DL Plus Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
Magnetic particle Testing (MPT) Make: Magnaflux Useful for surface defects detection in ferromagnetic materials
PMI Model: Titan Make: Bruker Useful for identification of alloy elements & composition
Hardness measurement Make: Equotip Useful for in-situ hardness measurements

PAUT & ToFD
Phased Array Probe Configuration A PA Probe is a long conventional probe cut into small individually excited elements It is like having many conventional UT probes in a single housing Usually, no of elements in a single casing varies from 16 to 256 8/30/2018 PAUT BASICS
Wave-forming
One array probe does the job of many single-element transducers: Probe size Probe focus Probe scanning Probe direction Under Electronic Control
AS[C] Scan Scanning Direction Test Piece Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing
Scanning Direction Test Piece ToFD Probe ToFD View Time of Flight Diffraction Testing
Advantages of PAUT / ToFD Full weld coverage from one location which helps in faster scanning speed. Online inspection and interpretation is possible. Decreased human errors in scanning. Improved sensitivity and resolution. Non hazardous, can be used in lieu of RT ToFD provides the best sensitivity for Cracks.
Equipment Acquisition Unit Omni scan MX fabricated by Olympus. Portable unit for both PAUT & TOFD. Offers high acquisition rate. 8.4 inch Real time display. Rugged. Battery operated (6 hour back up). On-line help, wizards and calibration procedures.
Equipment Available modules (removable): PA (16 or 32:128 phased array) + UT (1 channel) TOFD (1 transmit + 1receive) 8 Channel UT module Omni Scan MX Mainframe 16:16 16:128
Selection Of Scanners Depends on the following job parameters Job type (Pipe / Vessel/plate) Job Conditions (Diameter & thickness of the pipe, accessibility) Scanning requirement (Semi automated / Manual)

A scan display Flange 1 Weld 1 Branch 1 Corrosion Weld 2 Weld 3 Branch Flange 2 Long Range Ultrasonic Testing (LRUT)
Advantages of LRUT Detection threshold It is the minimum detectable defect and typically is set around 3% of cross sectional area Diagnostic Range It is the distance that the pipe can be screened in each direction from a single test location. In ideal conditions could be up to 100m, but the typical range on above ground pipes is 40-50m in each direction. For buried pipes 20m in each direction is more typical unless the pipe is sleeved. Rapid screening of pipes for in-service degradation Reduction in the cost of gaining access to the pipes for inspection
Focusing Focusing allows the energy to be concentrated where the defect is increasing sensitivity and giving position and size information Sound energy concentrated in one region Focus result link directly to Report Manager Rotation 8 times around pipe 4 times greater sensitivity Multi defect focus capability (IV) Features in Teletest

Thermography Model: Ti32 Make: FLUKE Useful for detection of hotspot & temperature abnormalities
ANDT For Tank inspection
Advanced NDT Techniques – Tank Inspection MFL - Tank bottom plate Rapid Motion Scanner (RMS) – Tank Shell plate Scorpion – Tank shell plate
Scanner magnet creates a localised magnetic field that fills or “saturates” the full thickness of the plate Material loss (corrosion) causes the magnetic field to “leak” out of the plate Magnetic flux leakage testing
This leakage field is detected by MFL sensors and the resulting signals are processed to estimate percentage loss Magnetic flux leakage testing Faster scanning speed. High sensitivity and resolution for localized corrosion under bottom plate Provides 2D imaging of the corrosion under plate. Advantages
