Hold the probe away from the calibration block or any other or any other ferrous material, and push the balance control. The equipment is electronical1y balanced for air and a cross is displayed on the C.R.T.
Clear the screens by pushing the erase control. A spot should appear on the screen. If the spot does not appear, re-balance and press the erase control again.

Clear the screen by pushing the erase control. Place the probe on the calibration block in order to obtain a reference signal, and then place it on the material to be inspected. The angle between the signals displayed on the screen for the calibration block and the test material must not exceed 10° for subsequent weld or material inspection to be considered valid.
A calibration block which more closely matches the material or metallurgical condition of the component to be tested is required if the angle between the displayed signals exceeds 10°.

Using the horizontal and vertical controls adjust the position of the spot until it is on the left hand side of the screen. Lift the probe on and off the calibration block, and adjust the phase angle control until the movement of the spot is vertical.
The screen is cleared by pushing the erase control. The probe is then placed on the 0.5mm, 1.0mm and 1.5mm thick non-conductive layers positioned over the block in turn. The spot should be moved horizontally between changes in layer thickness.
10.5 The thickness of the coating on the area to be examined can be estimated by interpolation between the signal amplitudes for the known thicknesses. The average and maximum coating thickness will be noted.
10.6 The maximum coating thickness through which inspection will be carried out is 2.5mm.
10.7 System gain will be increased by 6dB for each millimeter of paint coating.

11.4 Calibration Procedure With the settings detailed in 11.2, place the probe on the calibration block ensuring that it is some distance from any of the slots, and push the balance control. The equipment is electronically balanced for the steel specimen, and a cross is displayed on the screen. Clear the screen by pushing the erase control. A spot should appear on the screen. If the spot does not appear, re-balance and press the erase control again.
Run the probe over the 2mm deep slot. Care should be taken to ensure that the longitudinal axis of the probe is kept parallel to the slot and that the scanning direction is at right angles to the slot. The phase angle control is adjusted until the indication from the slot is in the upward vertical direction. The sensitivity level is adjusted to meet the client’s specification or, in the absence of a client specification, in accordance with paragraph 5 above, i.e. 1mm defect signal to full screen height after allowance has been made for surface coating thickness.
11.5 Scanning Procedure - the inspection consists of the following stages which will be carried out in the given order for full coverage of the weld and adjacent material.
11.5.1 Parent Material - the probe is placed on the component surface in an area 3 times the material thickness from the weld, and the equipment is balanced by pushing the balance control. The material is then scanned using a zig-zag pattern which must touch the weld toe (see Figure 1). This scan is performed on both sides of the weld. Note: The probe has directional sensitivity, and its long edge must be kept parallel to the line of the weld.
11.5.2 Heat Affected Zone - the equipment is balanced with the probe on an area free of defects in the HAZ to establish the normal condition. As a preliminary examination, the weld toe is investigated by a longitudinal scan (see Figure 2a). The area should be re-examined using a zig-zag scan (see Figure 2b). This scan is performed on both sides of the weld.
11.5.3 Weld Metal - the equipment is balanced with the probe on an area free of defects on the weld metal to establish the normal condition. The weld is the scanned using a zig-zag pattern (see figure 3a). Pronounced weld runs may produce an unacceptable noise level if scanned traversely. In this case, each weld must be scanned individually (see Figure 3b). Inter-

run boundaries are inspected by longitudinal movement of the probe. (See figure 3c).
11.5.4 Rat Holes/Stiffener Tip – Inspection of the weld is as detailed in steps 1 to 3. A second scan is carried out on the rat hole/stiffener tip as shown in figures 4 and 5.
11.5.5 Scanning for Transverse Defects – as with the parent plate scan, the equipment is balanced on an area free from defects on the parent plate. After the initial scans, the weld is then scanned with the weld probe turned 90o to detect transverse defects along the HAZ and weld cap.
11.5.6 Any areas giving defect indications should be cleaned to a suitable surface finish and re-examined using an appropriate MPI method for confirmation of a defect prior to reporting, unless otherwise specified by Freidi Goldman.
12. REPORTING The operator will record at least the following information in addition to that required by paragraph 8 of this procedure using the current revision of controlled form SG-nnn:
a. Customer
b. Contract
c. Order Number
d. Date
e. Job Description
