Introduction
The eddy current test described in this document has the objective of detecting during production
potential leaks and serious defects in seamless round copper and copper alloy tubes.
The eddy current test is able to detect material inhomogeneities and their positions throughout the
length of tubes. The eddy current signals of material inhomogeneities are compared with reference
signals of artificially produced test defects. It is possible to identify these inhomogeneities on the inner
and outer surfaces as well as within the tube wall.
Since the distribution of eddy currents decreases as the distance from the test coil increases, the
amplitude of defect signals also decreases with increasing distance from the test coil. Thus the eddy
current test with encircling test coil on the outer surface is less sensitive to defects on the inner surface.
The purpose of this European Standard is not to define a method of measuring the actual extent of the
material inhomogeneities as the signal amplitude is dependent on, amongst other factors, volume, form
and position of the inhomogeneity.
Due to end effects, it is not possible to effectively test the ends of the tubes. The purchaser and the
supplier could agree that the end effect may be overcome by cutting to length after testing.
