Scope ‘This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the ultrasonic exami- nation of killed steel plates (however, stainless steel is excluded) of at least 6 mm thickness used for principal parts of nuclear reactor, boilers, pressure vessels, etc. However, for the method for inspection of steel plates of over 200 mm thickness, Annex 4 applies. Farther, general matters other than those specified in this Standard shall be in accordance with JIS Z 2344. Remarks: The following standards are cited in this Standard: JIS B 0601 Definitions and designation of surface roughness JIS G 0565 Method for magnetic particle testing of ferromagnetic materials and classification of magnetic particle indication JIS G 8108 Carbon steel and molybdenum alloy steel plates for boilers and other pressure vessels JIS G 8106 Rolled steels for welded structure JIS G 4304 Hot rolled stainless steel plates, sheets and strip JIS Z 2800 Glossary of terms used in nondestructive testing JIS Z 2343 Methods for liquid penetrant testing and classifica- tion of the indication JIS Z 2844 General rule of ultrasonic testing of metals by pulse echo technique JIS Z 2345 Standard test blocks for ultrasonic testing JIS Z2350 Method for measurement of performance characteris- ties of ultrasonic probes JIS Z 2852 Method for assessing the overall performance charac- teristics of ultrasonic pulse echo testing instrument JIS Z 8104 Methods of radiographic test and classification of radiographs for steel welds 2. Definitions —_ For the main terms used in this Standard the definitions in JIS Z 2300 apply, and the rest of the terms shall be as follows: (1) digital flaw detector _Is a flaw detector equipped with a function capable of mainly processing output signal digitally without observing that with a display. (2) specified sensitivity _ Is an echo height-reference line in the digital flaw detector corresponding to 50 % on CRT (DM line) of an A-scan display type flaw detector in the case where sensitivity is set by combination of a digital flaw detector and a double transducer normal probe.
