6.1.11 Magnetic parle examination is performed after ail operations which might cause or reveal
‘scontnutes. Such operations mcluge, but are not ited fo, forging, heat eating, eecropating,
‘machining, grinding, staghtening, and prost loading. The sequence of examination shal follow the
requirements in current revision of sacton ASTM Et44a (for example, Sacton 5.4 In ASTM Ei4sa-
2016),
6:12 Parts must be inspected by the wet continuous method using fuorescent particles; on areas or features
not ready Inspected bythe contnuous method, the residual method may be employed. The folowing
appli tothe usage ofthe residual method:
6.1.2.1 The fubwave rectified alternating curent (FIWDC) must be uiized when the residual method is use.
1612.2 Inspection shall eke place within § minutes fam appication of the magnetizing force when the residuat
method ie used
61.23 A duel tine between aplication of medium and actual inspection shall be allowed to permit drainage of
‘excess medium which may mask defects Special afenion shall be given to filet radi and Internat
Comers where defects may be maskee by accumulation of magasie pales
6.12 To-ensure the detection of discontinuities in any det, each part must be magnetized ina least wo
rections at approximate ght angles to each other This may consist of crcular magnetization in two oe
more directions, or both creular and, longitudinal magnetzation, er of lngiuainal magnetization in two or
6.2 Operations:
‘All magnetic particle inspection operations shal be conducted In accordance with th latest revision of
‘ASTM E1440 of ASTM AZT.
6.3 Particle Application:
63.1 Continous method - in the wet, continuous method, the magnetizing current shall be applied
‘Simutaneousty with of immediately after dvering suspension fom te part. Applicaton of the magnetic
pamises (coe Section 6.3.3 below) and the magnetization method shal be as prescribed i the
Paragraphs referenced heroin
6.32 Residual magnetization method - In the residual magnetization method, the magnetic particles are
applied tothe test part after the magnetizing free has been discontinued
633 Wet magnetic particle application - Fluorescent particles suspended in liquid vehicle at the required
concentration shall be appied by a gente flow ofthe suspension over the area to be inspected. Proper
Sequencing and timing of part magnetization and appieation of particle suspension are required to obtain
‘roper formation and retenton ofingicabons. This generally requires that the steam of suspension be
‘dverad from the part simutaneoualy with, of sbghty belore enesging the magnetic cout The
‘magnetizing current shall be applied for a minimum of@ 1/2 second for each application with a minimum
‘of two current shots Being used. The second shot should follow the fst n capil succession. 1 should
come after the flow of suspension has been interupd, and should occur before the pats examined for
fndeatons, "Care shall be exercised fo prevent any damago to tho par due to overheating oF other

shall be emproyed for magna parle inspection in accordance with ths document. Fullwave rectified
ftemating currant has the deepest poeslbie ponataton and must be Used when inspecting for defects

organization,
