For un-machined surfaces cleaning as per ASTM E165, Annexes A1.1.1.8 Examined surface shall be free of any dit, grease, lint, scale, welding lux, weld spatters, oil or any other extraneous matter that could obscure surface opening or otherwise interfere with the examination 8.3 Drying After Pre-Cleaning ‘After pre-cleaning, drying ofthe surfaces to be examined shall be accomplished by normal evaporation or with forced hot or cold air. A minimum 60 seconds to ensure that the cleaning solution has evaporated prior to application of the penetrant. 8.4 Penetrant Application After the parthas been cleaned, cried, and is within the specified temperature range, the penetrant shall be applied to the surface to be examined so that the entire part or area under examination is compietely covered with penetrant. Application methods. Include dipping, brushing, flooding, or spraying, Penetrant shall remain wet throughout the dwell time. The dwell ime requirements shall be followed as per PT option table which is referred in this procedure. 8.5 Removal of Excess Penetrant Removal of Solvent removable penetrants Excess solvent removable penetrants shall be removed by wiping with a cloth or absorbent paper, repeating the operation until ‘most traces of penetrant have been removed. The remaining traces shall be removed by lightly wiping the surface with cloth or absorbent paper moistened with solvent. To minimize removal of penetrant from discontinuities, care shall be taken to avoid the Use of excess solvent. Flushing the surface with solvent, following the application of the penetrant and prior to developing, is prohibited. Removal of Water. Washable Penetrants ‘The excess penetrant on the surface being examined must be removed with water. It can be removed manually with a coarse spray or wiping the part surface with @ dampened cloth, automatic or semi-automatic water-spray equipment, or by water immersion. For immersion rinsing, parts are completely immersed in the water bath with air or mechanical agitation. ‘The temperature of the water shall be maintained within the range of 10°C to 38 * Spray-rinse water pressure shall not exceed 40 psi. When hydro-air pressure spray guns are used, the air pressure should not exceed 25 psi other than drinking, bottled, distilled, or deionized water is used, it shall be analyzed for chlorine and sulfur max content shall not exceed 0.1% by weight. 8.8. Drying aftor excess penetrant removal The surfaces may be dried by normal evaporation, bioting, wiping, or forced air. ‘The drying will vary with the type of drying used and the size, nature, geometry and number of parts being processed.

Only indications with major dimensions greater than 1.5 mm shall be considered relevant. ‘= Allinear indication is one having a length greater than three times the with. ‘=A rounded indication is one of circular or etiptical shape withthe length equal to or less than three times the width. Any questionable or doubtful indications shall be reexamined to determine whether or not they are relevant. Discontinuitos at the surface shall be indicated by bleeding of the penetrant. However, localized surface irregularities such as, from machining marks or other surface conditions may produce false indication. Broad areas of pigmentation which could mask indications of discontinuities are unacceptable, and such areas will be cleaned and re-examined, 10.0 Evaluation Final interpretation shall be done under either natural or artificial visible ight. Proper illumination is required to ensure adequate sensitivity of the examination. Minimum light intensity at the examination surface of 1076 Lux (100 foot candles) is required 11.0 Acceptance standard and criteria ‘Acceptance standard and criteria shall be followed as per Annexure-1 PT options table which is referred inthis procedure. 12.0 Post Examination Cleaning ‘After completion of examination, the residual penetrant or developer shall be removed by use of solvent cleaning or simple water rinse/spray, ete. 13.0 Calibration Light meter shall be calibrated at least once a year or whenever the meter has been repaired. If meter have not been in use for ‘one year or more, calibration shall be done before being used.
