Non-destructive testing of welds - Magnetic particle testing (ISO 17638:2016)

ISO 17638:2016 specifies techniques for detection of surface imperfections in welds in ferromagnetic materials, including the heat affected zones, by means of magnetic particle testing. The techniques are suitable for most welding processes and joint configurations. Variations in the basic techniques that will provide a higher or lower test sensitivity are described in Annex A.
ISO 17638:2016 does not specify acceptance levels of the indications. Further information on acceptance levels for indications may be found in ISO 23278 or in product or application standards.

Contrôle non destructif des assemblages soudés - Magnétoscopie (ISO 17638:2016)

ISO 17638:2016 spécifie les techniques pour la détection par magnétoscopie des défauts de surface des soudures de matériaux ferromagnétiques, y compris les zones affectées thermiquement, à l'aide de la technique d'aimantation. Les techniques sont appropriées pour la plupart des procédés de soudage et des configurations d'assemblages. Des variantes des techniques de base donnant une sensibilité plus élevée ou plus faible sont décrites dans l'Annexe A.
ISO 17638:2016 ne spécifie pas des niveaux d'acceptation pour les indications. Des informations complémentaires sur les niveaux d'acceptation peuvent être trouvées dans l'ISO 23278 ou dans les normes d'application ou les normes de produit.

Neporušitveno preskušanje zvarov - Preskušanje z magnetnimi delci (ISO 17638:2016)

Ta dokument določa tehnike za odkrivanje površinskih nepravilnosti zvarov pri feromagnetnih materialih, vključno s področji, izpostavljenimi toploti, s preskušanjem z magnetnimi delci. Tehnike so primerne za večino postopkov varjenja in konfiguracije spojev. Različice osnovnih tehnik, ki vključujejo višjo ali nižjo občutljivost preskušanja, so opisane v dodatku A. Ta dokument ne določa stopenj sprejemljivosti za indikacije. Več informacij o stopnjah sprejemljivosti za indikacije je mogoče najti v standardu ISO 23278, standardih za proizvode ali standardih uporabe.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
