Non-destructive testing - Penetrant testing - Part 4: Equipment (ISO 3452-4:1998)

This European standard specifies the characteristics of equipment used in penetrant testing. The characteristics of equipment required for carrying out penetrant testing depend on the number of tests to be made and on the size of the components to be tested. Two types of equipment are included in this standard: a) equipment suitable for carrying out in situ penetrant testing techniques; b) fixed installations.

Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Eindringprüfung - Teil 4: Geräte (ISO 3452-4:1998)

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften von Geräten fest, die bei der Eindringprüfung verwendet werden. Die für die Durchführung der Eindringprüfung geforderten Eigenschaften der Geräte hängen von der Zahl der erforderlichen Prüfungen und von der Größe der zu prüfenden Bauteile ab. Zwei Gerätetypen werden in dieser Norm behandelt: a) Geräte, die geeignet sind für die Durchführung von Eindringprüftechniken vor Ort; b) Stationäre Anlagen.

Essais non destructifs - Examen par ressuage - Partie 4: Equipement (ISO 3452-4:1998)

La présente norme définit les caractéristiques de l'équipement à utiliser  pour l'essai de ressuage. Ces caractéristiques dépendent des systèmes de ressuage utilisés du nombre de  contrôles à effectuer et des dimensions des pièces à contrôler. La présente norme considère deux types d'équipement : a) les équipements adaptés pour effectuer des contrôles sur site. b) les installations fixes.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in
the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of
ISO 3452 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held
responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 3452-4 was prepared by the European
Committee for Standardization (CEN) in collaboration with ISO Technical
Committee TC 135, Non-destructive testing, Subcommittee SC 2, Surface
methods, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation
between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
Throughout the text of this standard, read “.this European Standard.” to
mean “.this International Standard.”.
This first edition together with ISO 3452-1, ISO 3452-2 and ISO 3452-3
cancels and replaces ISO 3452:1984, which has been technically revised.
ISO 3452 consists of the following parts, under the general title Non-
destructive testing — Penetrant testing:
— Part 1: General principles
— Part 2: Penetrant testing materials
— Part 3: Reference test blocks
— Part 4: Equipment
Annex ZA provides a list of corresponding International and European
Standards for which equivalents are not given in the text.

Foreword
The text of EN ISO 3452-4:1998 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 138 "Non-destructive testing",
the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 135 "Non-destructive
testing".
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by
endorsement, at the latest by June 1999, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June
1999.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association. This European Standard is considered to be a supporting standard to those
application and product standards which in themselves support an essential safety requirement of a New Approach
Directive and which make reference to this European Standard.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries
are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland

Introduction
At the present time, one part of this Standard is published independently on the European and ISO levels, the others
are under the Vienna Agreement and consequently have the ISO number at the European level. However, the Vienna
agreement was applied during the work, so some European Standards have referenced them under their previous
European number. The following table gives the correspondance between these different numbers.

1 Scope
This European standard specifies the characteristics of equipment used in penetrant testing. The characteristics of
equipment required for carrying out penetrant testing depend on the number of tests to be made and on the size of
the components to be tested. Two types of equipment are included in this standard:
a) equipment suitable for carrying out in situ penetrant testing techniques;
b) fixed installations.
2 Normative references
This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For
dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any these publications apply to this European
Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the
publication referred to applies.
