—G 0565— Method for magnetic particle testing of ferromagnetié materials and classification of magnetic particle indication 1. Scope “This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies the method for magnetic Gs ticle testing, hereinafter referred to as the "test", of ferromagnetic “jp Remarks: Applicable Standards to this Standard are shown in the following: JIS C 2503-Soft Magnetic Iron Bars JIS € 2504~-Soft Magnetic Iron Plates JIS K 2203-Kerosine 2. Purpose . Definitions For the purposes of this Standard, main definitions are in accordance with JIS Z 2300. 4, Testing engineer The person to perform the test shall have the qualifications necessary for the task or have sufficient knowledge, technique and experience equivalet thereto. > g Apparatus 5.1 Test apparatus The test apparatus shall be as follows: (1) The test apparatus is, as a rule, capable of performing the four operations to the test body, i.e., the magnetization, application magnetic particles, observation and demagnetization. However, if § (2) The test apparatus must be capable of testing efficiently and safelj with suitable sensitivity, according to the shape, dimensions, quality of material, surface condition and nature of flaws (class, size, position and direction) of test bodies. 2 —1066——G .0565— Hor magnetizing apparatus, there are those of electric current using ‘usystem and permanent magnet using system, and the former system is pelassified by the type of magnetizing current into the d.ce, rectifying, a.c. and impulse current types. F = The magnetizing apparatus using electric current must ‘be capable of giving a suitable magnetic field density for detecting flaws the “jetest body. For this purpose, the apparatus must be provided with, an ammeter which expresses the magnetizing current by the crest value. However, the spparatus of electromagnet type way not include this

observation of magnetic particle indication The observation of magne EGerticle indication shall be as follows: The magnetic particle indication must, as a rule, be observed ionediately after it has been formed. ) In the case of having used nonfluorescent magnetic particles, the magnetic particle indication must be observed under daylight or {ilumination bright enough to identify sufficieatly (The brightness of observing surface is not.less than 500 1x). (G) In the case of having used fluorescent magnetic particles, the <" fiuorescent magnetic particle indication must be observed by using the black light of 5.1 (8), im darkness to identify sufficiently (the brightness of observing surface is not more than 20 Ix.). In this case, the ultraviolet ray intensity at the observing curface + \'must be not less than 800 pW/cm™. ) In the case of having appeared of magnetic particle indication, «whether it is due to flaws or to false indication not due to flaws ju. must be confirned, The false indication includes the following: “(a) Magnetic writing “{(o) Abrupt sectional variation indication "3 (c)’ Blectric current indication (a) Electrode indication (e) Magnetic pole indication {(f) Surface roughness indication ©. Material junction indication The magnetic particle indication must be recorded by photographing, sketching, transcription (with pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, magnetic tape, etc.), as required, or fix om the test, surface with a suitable material (transparent varnish, clear laquer, etc.), as, required. It is generally difficult to estimate the depth of flaw from the magnetic particle indication. Therefore, other methods than the magnetic particle testing must be used in the case where the depth of flaw is to be obtained. —1079~—G-0565— 8.7 Demagnetization The demagnetization shall-be as follows: qa (a) () (c) (a) ) (2) 8.8 Notes on executing tests Notes on executing tests shall be as follows: a @) —1080-- Demagnetization must be performed in the following cases: Where the magnetization in test to be performed ‘successively fear to receive harmful influence due to previous magnetization +e Where the residual magnetism in the test body has a fear to ee harmful influence to the subsequent machine vorking. Where the test body is to be used in or near frictional parts aij has a fear to-increase abrasion by attraction of iron powder: the like to the friction parts. Other cases where the demagnetization is required. Demagnetize by decreasing the intensity of magnetic field while:. altering its direction, according to the magnetizing method sane the general testing. Herein, the initial intensity of magnetic (j must greater than that at having magnetized or of a magnitude by wach the test body is magnetically saturated, and the field mist weakened from that level to zero. Further, after demagnetizing, the test body must be confirm: as required, of having been demagnetized by using a gaussmeter Like. In the case where it is impossible to test the whole test surface by one series of testing operation comprising magnetization, appli tion of magnetic particles and observation, set an effective i for flaw detection that can be tested by once testing operation; divide the test surface into suitable sections and repeat the ‘test operation by the required number of times. In this case, the | tion of flaws in various directions is required, magnetic fielda’ in at least two different directions are applied to the test body and the retest must be performed in each direction respectivély. this case, such equipment that can magnetize the test body in directions by repeating successively and can perform the test 5 taneously by the continuous method may be used.—G 0565— In the case where the residual method is used, other test body or = —\ other ferromagnetic material must not be brought in contact ‘with the test surface during the period from the finish of magnetizing opera— tion until the completion of observation of magnetic particle indication. ’ : In the case where several test bodies are tested at the sane time, the arrangement of test bodies, magnetizing method, magnetizing curtent, etc, mist be taken into consideration especially. When it is difficult to judge that the confirmed magnetic particle indication has been produced by flaws, the retest is performed by making demagnetization and improving the surface condition, as required, and must confirm whether it is the false indication or not. Confirm whether it is the false indication or not according to the followin As to the-magnetic writing, if retest is performed after demagnetizing, the magnetic particle indication disappears. - yo As to the electric current indication, if the current is made small or retest is performed by residual method, the magnetic particle indication disappears. As to the surface roughness indication, if the test surface is made smooth and the retest is performed, the magnetic particle indication disappears. The material quality boundary indication can be confirmed by the tests such as macrography, microscopic test, etc, other than the magnetic particle testing. In testing a weld, cares must be taken to the following (a) and (b): (a) In the case where the weld is instructed with heat treatment after welding or the like, the test for determination of acceptance must be conducted after the final heat treatment. ‘The magnetizing method for testing on the weld having been heat- treated, pressure vessel after completing of pressure resistance test or the like must, as a rule, be performed by the yoke method, | but the prod method must not be used. moe —1081——G 0565— (2) The classification of magnetic particle indications is follows by the shape and flocculating: (1) Magnetic particle indication by cracks ‘The magnetic particl i @®. indication discriminated to be cracks according to 8.6 -Q) Independent magnetic particle indication Individval magnetic pf ticle indications existing independently are classified into th following two types.
