2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 1330-4:2000, Non destructive testing – Terminology – Part 4 : Terms used in ultrasonic testing. EN 10025-2, Hot rolled products of structural steels - Part 2 : Technical delivery conditions for non-alloy structural steels EN 12668-2, Non-destructive testing – Characterization and verification of ultrasonic examination equipment – Part 2: Probes. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 1330-4:2000 apply. 4 General requirements for compliance Ultrasonic thickness measuring equipment complies with this standard if it satisfies all the following conditions:
a) ultrasonic instrument and probe comply with the technical requirements of this standard; b) either a declaration of conformity, issued by an organisation certified in accordance with EN ISO 9001; or a certificate issued by an organisation accredited according to EN ISO/IEC 17050-1 and EN ISO/IEC 17050-2, or a test report issued by an organisation performing in-house calibration; c) ultrasonic instrument and probe are clearly marked to identify the manufacturer, type and series, and carries a unique serial number; d) user instruction manual for the particular type and series of the ultrasonic equipment is available; e) manufacturer's technical specification for the appropriate type and series of ultrasonic equipment which defines the performance criteria in accordance with this standard is available. NOTE The manufacturer's technical specification does not in itself constitute the certificate of measured values required in b).

5.2 General attributes The following shall be detailed:
a) size; b) weight (at an operational stage); c) type(s) of power supply; d) type(s) of probe sockets; e) battery operational time (as new, at maximum power consumption with a specified duty cycle); f) temperature and voltage (mains and/or battery) ranges, in which operation complies with the technical specification. If a warm-up period is necessary, the duration of this shall be stated; g) form of indication given when a low battery voltage takes the ultrasonic instrument performance outside of specification; h) pulse repetition frequencies (PRFs) (switched positions and/or variable ranges); i) if available, monitor outputs to indicate when the measurement values fall outside a set tolerance; j) if equipment can measure through coatings; k) minimum measurable and maximum measurable thicknesses on a defined material; NOTE A minimum measurable thickness of zero cannot be verified and therefore not specified. l) accuracy and resolution shall be stated in mm. 5.3 Display The following shall be detailed: a) type of display (alphanumeric or graphical and also whether LED, LCD or CRT); b) dimension of alphanumeric display; c) dimension of graphical display.
