    Fluorescent penetration inspection is a non-destructive testing method used to detect discontinuities up to 6 mm deep on the surface of auxiliary power unit components. The process involves pre-cleaning the surface, applying a water-washable penetrant, dwelling for 10-20 minutes, rinsing with water, drying, applying a nonaqueous developer, dwelling again for 10 minutes, and inspecting under UV light from 10 minutes to 2 hours after development to check for cracks or scratches.

    FLUORESCENT PENETRATION INSPECTION

    Fluorescent penetration inspection is basically a Non Destructive Test (NDT) which is done to detect any types of discontinuity up to 6 mm depth of the surface of any part or components of the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). The inspection is carried out in the following steps -

    1. Pre cleaning the surface 2. Apply water washable penetrant by spray, dip, or wipe (Part surface
    temperature between 4-52*C) FP-900, FP-901, FP-902

    3. DWELL for minimum 10 minutes or 20 min if temperature is less than 50*F 4. RINSE with water at a temperature of 10-30*C 5. DRY at maximum temperature of 71*C 6. APPLY NONAQUEOUS or DRY DEVELOPER D-70 D-72A 7. DWELL for minimum of 10 minutes 8. INSPECTION- Use UV-A illumination of 1000 microwatts/cm2 not more than 2
    ftcandles visible light, 20 lux Inspection from 10 minutes to 2 hours after developer application
