EN ISO 22232-2:2020

Non-destructive testing - Characterization and verification of ultrasonic test equipment - Part 2: Probes (ISO 22232-2:2020)

This document specifies the characteristics of probes used for non-destructive ultrasonic testing in the following categories with centre frequencies in the range of 0,5 MHz to 15 MHz, focusing or without focusing means:
a)   single- or dual-transducer contact probes generating longitudinal and/or transverse waves;
b)   single-transducer immersion probes.
Where material-dependent ultrasonic values are specified in this document they are based on steels having a sound velocity of (5 920 ± 50) m/s for longitudinal waves, and (3 255 ± 30) m/s for transverse waves.
This document excludes periodic tests for probes. Routine tests for the verification of probes using on-site procedures are given in ISO 22232-3.
If parameters in addition to those specified in ISO 22232-3 are to be verified during the probe's life time, as agreed upon by the contracting parties, the procedures of verification for these additional parameters can be selected from those given in this document.
This document also excludes ultrasonic phased array probes, therefore see ISO 18563-2.

Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Charakterisierung und Verifizierung der Ultraschall-Prüfausrüstung - Teil 2: Prüfköpfe (ISO 22232-2:2020)

Dieses Dokument legt die Merkmale von Prüfköpfen für die zerstörungsfreie Ultraschallprüfung mit Mittenfrequenzen im Bereich von 0,5 MHz bis 15 MHz, fokussierend oder ohne fokussierende Vorrichtungen in den folgenden Kategorien fest:
a) Einschwinger- oder SE-Prüfköpfe (en: single- or dual-transducer contact probes) für den direkten Kontakt, die Longitudinal- und/oder Transversal¬wellen erzeugen;
b) Tauchtechnik-Prüfköpfe mit einem Schwinger (en: single-transducer immersion probes).
Wenn werkstoffabhängige Ultraschallwerte in diesem Dokument festgelegt werden, beruhen sie auf Stahl mit einer Schallgeschwindigkeit von (5 920 ± 50) m/s für Longitudinalwellen und von (3 255 ± 30) m/s für Transversalwellen.
Dieses Dokument schließt wiederkehrenden Überprüfungen für Prüfköpfe aus. Routinemäßige Kontrollen zur Verifizierung von Prüfköpfen mit Verfahren, die am Prüfort angewendet werden, sind in ISO 22232 3 aufgeführt.
Wenn mit Zustimmung der Vertragspartner zusätzlich zu den in ISO 22232 3 aufgeführten Parametern auch noch zusätzliche Parameter während der Lebensdauer des Prüfkopfes verifiziert werden müssen, so können die Verfahren zur Verifizierung für diese zusätzlichen Parameter aus den in diesem Dokument aufgeführten Verfahren ausgewählt werden.
Dieses Dokument schließt Ultraschallgeräte mit phasengesteuerten Arrays aus, siehe dazu ISO 18563 2.

Essais non destructifs - Caractérisation et vérification de l'appareillage de contrôle par ultrasons - Partie 2: Traducteurs (ISO 22232-2:2020)

Le présent document spécifie les caractéristiques des traducteurs utilisés pour les contrôles non destructifs par ultrasons appartenant aux catégories suivantes, de fréquence centrale comprise entre 0,5 MHz et 15 MHz, avec ou sans focalisation:
a)    traducteurs à contact à transducteur simple ou à émetteur et récepteur séparés, générant des ondes longitudinales et/ou transversales;
b)    traducteurs pour contrôle en immersion à transducteur simple.
Lorsque des valeurs ultrasonores dépendantes du matériau sont spécifiées dans le présent document, elles sont basées sur des aciers dont la vitesse de l'onde ultrasonore est de (5 920 ± 50) m/s pour les ondes longitudinales, et de (3 255 ± 30) m/s pour les ondes transversales.
Le présent document exclut les essais périodiques pour les traducteurs. Les essais de routine pour la vérification des traducteurs à l'aide de modes opératoires sur site sont décrits dans l'ISO 22232-3.
Si d'autres paramètres que ceux spécifiés dans l'ISO 22232-3 doivent être vérifiés pendant la durée de vie du traducteur, suivant ce qui a été convenu entre les parties contractantes, les modes opératoires de vérification de ces paramètres supplémentaires peuvent être sélectionnés parmi celles décrites dans le présent document.
Le présent document exclut également les traducteurs par ultrasons en multiéléments; par conséquent, voir l'ISO 18563-2.
