LIQUID PENETRANT METHOD
Lesson 5 Page 36+
Quiz 5
1. A typical false indication could be caused by an assembly that requires the
‘components to be press-fitted
2. Nonrelevant indications could be caused by rough surface on casting
3. Postcleaning is necessary only when the part must be retested by the
liquid penetrant method
4. A typical true indication producing round indications is commonly caused
by porosity
5, Diffused or weak Indications are often caused by subsurface
discontionuites, and the part must be retested using a highly sensitive
penetant that will penetrae grain structure
6. True indications are usually those that require evaluation to determine
their effect on the service life of the part
7. The aluminium test block used in penetrant evaluaion are heated and
quenched in water to produce a pattern of cracks on the surface
8. The sensitivity tests used in penetrant inspection ae relatively simple,
Nonquaniative, and rrequie side-by-side visual observaion
9. The meniscus test utilizes a flat glass platen and convex lens to determine
the concentration of a visible or fluorescent penetrant
10.The ceramic block test uses an unfired ceramic disc to determine the
‘apparent brighness of t he spot diameter
11,A special steel block, placed at a 75° angle, is used to check the
effectiveness of the emulsier
12.Dry developers are often checked with a hydrometer to insure that they
are still light and fluffy and not settled into a dense mixture
13.The fluorescent penetrant fade test ussually makes use of thee aluminium
‘test blocks to perform the test
14.The filtered particle method of penetrant inspection used extra fine
fiuorecent particles that will not pass through a #120 sieve
15.The depth of a discontinuity can be compared by observing the relative
sside of brightness of the indication
16.Penetrant that has been transferred to a clean article from th indication on
‘another aticle can cause a false indication
17.Nonrelevant indications often are actual surface discontinuity
18.1f a discontinuity evaluated as being a true indication, the article should
automatically be rejected.
