TT Test temperature 11.1 ‘The temperature of the penetrant and the surface test component shall remain in the range 10° C — 52°C. Local heating or cooling is permitted provided the part temperature remains in the said range. Wherever the material-manufacturers’ recommendation of test temperature range is stringent than the above, such recommendation shall be followed. 11.2 In case the temperature of the component is out side the range as specified above, the procedure may be applicable but require re-qualification and revision as described in Para T-653 of Article 6 of ASME Sec V. 12.

After the completion of the minimum dwell time, the excess penetrant on the test component surface shall be removed by wiping with a clean and dry lint-free cloth or paper, repeating this operation until most of the traces of penetrant have been removed from the test surface. 14.2. Final stages of cleaning shall be done by wiping the surface with a clean cloth or paper moistened with the solvent cleaner and care shall be taken to avoid use of excess solvent to avoid unwanted removal of penetrant from fine, shallow discontinuities. 14.3. Flushing the surface with solvent (following the application of penetrant and prior to developing) is prohibited. 15. Drying of test Surface 15.1. - The test surface shall be left drying by normal evaporation. 15.2. The time of drying between the end of excess penetrant removal and start of developer application shall be limited to a maximum of 10 minutes. 16. Application of Developer 16.1. The developer shall be applied as soon as possible after penetrant removal. 16.2. Before application, the developer shall be kept agitated to prevent settling and ensure uniform dispersal of the particles in the carrier fluid. 16.3. The developer shail then be uniformly applied by spraying to form a thin layer on the test surface, just sufficient to draw the penetrant retained in any discontinuity reservoir and also to provide a contrasting background. 16.4. Under conditions when spraying is prohibited due to safety or restricted access, developer shall be applied by brushing.

Whenever it is realized that an excess developer coat (which may mask indications) has been applied, the process of examination shall be redone (re-examination) from the stages of initial solvent cleaning. 16.6. Developing time for final interpretation begins as soon as the wet developer coating is dry. The ‘minimum developer dwell-time shall not be less than that required by Table-13.1 16.7. The development time (Interpretation time) shall be limited to a maximum of 30 minutes. 17. Forming of Indications 17.1. The developer forms a reasonably uniform white coating and surface discontinuities are indicated by bleed-out of the penetrant in deep red color staining the developer. 17.2. Indications with a light pink color may indicate excessive cleaning, while inadequate cleaning may leave an excessive background making interpretation difficult. 18. Viewing conditions 18.1. The test area shall be adequately illuminated for proper evaluation of indications revealed on the test surface. 18.2. A minimum light intensity of 100 fe (1000 lux) is required on the surface to be examined to ensure adequate sensitivity during the examination and evaluation of indications. 18.3. The light-source technique used (day light or artificial) shall be documented and maintained. A hand lamp with a focusing curvature hood, with a 100 watt bulb placed at a distance maximum 1 meter from the surface will fulfill the minimum light intensity requirement (100 fe) on the test surface, 19. Interpretation of indications 19.1. The evaluation of indications generally will begin on completion of the minimum developer- dwell-time, however with the maximum developer-dwell-time limited to 30 minutes.

Discontinuities are indicated by bleed-out of the penetrant in deep red color staining the developer (indications). 19.3. Relevant indications are those indications resulting from mechanical discontinuities on the surface. Linear indication is one having a length having greater than three times the width. Rounded indication is one of circular or elliptical shape with length equal to or less than three times the width. 19.4. Discontinuities due to localized surface imperfections (such as machining marks, rough weld profile) or attributable directly to some feature of the assembly or component examined may produce non-relevant indications. 19.5. Contamination due improper handling of various test materials or improper cleaning during testing may produce false indications. 19.6. Any questionable or doubifull indications shall be explored by visual or other meanis, and if necessary, evaluated by a re-examination, 20, Post-examination cleaning 20.1. The post-examination residues of penetrant or developer will not normally have any deleterious effect on the test component since the test materials are selected to avoid any such effects significantly. However, post-examination cleaning may be required when such residues may have adverse chemical reactions with the test component. Under such conditions, the residues may be cleaned to the desired extent by solvent cleaning or a coarse water spray. [ 21. Evaluation for Acceptance status 21.1. All relevant (including non-relevant, if necessitated by any referencing document or client requirement) indications (type of indication — linear or rounded, location, length or diameter or aligned) shall be recorded as a minimum and interpreted against the relevant acceptance criteria. Where none specified, all the relevant indications shall be recorded. 21.2. This Procedure contains sample acceptance standards as per ASME Section VIII (D 1) & Section IX.
