4 Classification
4.1 Testing products
Penetrant testing products shall be classified by type, method and form in accordance with
ISO/DIS 3452-1:2019 Table 1.
4.2 Sensitivity levels
4.2.1 General
Penetrant baseline sensitivity and product family sensitivity are determined independently and one or
both of them shall be carried out.
4.2.2 Penetrant baseline sensitivity
For penetrant baseline sensitivity the penetrant is submitted with its designated remover and is tested
using a standard reference developer. The allocated penetrant sensitivity level is only valid when the
penetrant is used with the designated remover.
4.2.3 Product family sensitivity
The product family sensitivity is determined by submitting a complete set of products for assessment.
The allocated product family sensitivity level is only valid when this complete set of products is used.
4.2.4 Fluorescent systems
Sensitivity levels shall be defined by reference products:
— sensitivity level 1/2 (very low);
— sensitivity level 1 (low);
— sensitivity level 2 (medium);
— sensitivity level 3 (high);
— sensitivity level 4 (ultra-high).
Sensitivity level 1/2 applies to Type I method A only.
4.2.5 Colour contrast systems
Sensitivity levels shall be defined using the type 1 reference block in accordance with ISO 3452-3:
— sensitivity level 1 (normal);
— sensitivity level 2 (high).
4.2.6 Dual-purpose product family
There are no sensitivity levels for dual-purpose penetrants when used as a fluorescent system. However
these products may be classified as colour contrast products (see 4.2.3).

5 Testing of penetrant materials
5.1 Personnel
Testing shall be carried out by proficient, suitably trained and qualified personnel. For non-destructive
Testing (NDT) operations (e.g. sensitivity and washability), unless otherwise agreed to demonstrate
appropriate proficiency it is recommended that personnel be trained according to ISO 9712 or an
equivalent formalized system. Operating authorization for personnel shall be issued by the employer in
accordance with a written procedure.
5.2 Testing facilities
5.2.1 Type testing
Type testing shall be carried out on penetrant materials according to ISO 3452-1 with exceptions as
defined in ISO 3452-2 to ensure their conformance to the requirements.
Type testing shall be carried out by an independent laboratory having a formalised quality system and
the relevant technical competencies. ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for the testing of penetrant materials
would satisfy this requirement.
5.2.2 Batch testing
Batch testing to the requirements of ISO 3452-2 shall be carried out on each production batch according
to ISO 3452-1 to ensure the batch has the same properties as the corresponding type approval sample.
In the case of penetrant material packed in spray cans, the content of sulfur and halogens shall be
additionally determined according to 6.12.
Batch testing shall be carried out under a defined and maintained quality system. A system meeting the
requirements of ISO 9001 is considered suitable.
5.2.3 Process and control testing
Process and control tests to monitor the implementation of the method are described in ISO 3452-1.
5.3 Reporting
5.3.1 Type testing
The testing laboratory (see 5.2.1) shall provide a certificate of compliance with this part of ISO 3452
and a report that details the results obtained.
If any changes are made to the penetrant material composition, then a new type test and product
identity shall be required.
5.3.2 Batch testing
Manufacturers of penetrant materials shall provide certificates of compliance with this part of ISO 3452
(for example, see EN 10204 or ISO 10474).
5.4 Tests
5.4.1 Sensitivity test
A sensitivity test shall be carried out for each individual penetrant material and/or product family.
Type testing shall be carried out according to 6.2.
