Non destructive testing - Qualification and certification of NDT personnel - General principles

Non destructive testing - Qualification and certification of NDT personnel - General principles

This European Standard defines a system for the qualification and certification of personnel who perform industrial non destructive testing (NDT). The term 'industrial' implies the exclusion fo applications in the field of medecine. NOTE Wherever gender specific words such as "his", "her", "he" or "she" appear in this standard the other gender is also applicable. When certification of NDT personnel is defined in product standards, regulations, codes or specifications, it is recommended to certify the personnel in accordance with this EN 473.

Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung - Qualifizierung und Zertifizierung von Personal der zerstörungsfreien Prüfung - Allgemeine Grundlagen

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein System für die Qualifizierung und Zertifizierung von Personal fest, das industrielle zerstörungfreie Prüfungen (ZfP) durchführt. Der Begriff 'industriellé bedeutet den Ausschluß der Anwendung in der Medizin. ANMERKUNG Immer wenn geschlechtsspezifische Wörter wie "seine", "ihre", "er" oder "sie" in dieser Norm erscheinen, gilt dies auch für das andere Geschlecht. Wenn die Zertifizierung von ZfP-Personal in Produktnormen, Gesetzen, Verordnungen, Regelwerken oder Anforderungen festgelegt wird, wird empfohlen, Personal in Übereinstimmung mit dieser EN 473 zu zertifizieren.

Essais non destructifs - Qualification et certification du personnel END - Principes généraux

La présente norme européenne établit un systeme pour la qualification et la certification du personnel chargé d'effectuer des essais non destructifs industriels. Le terme 'industriel' implique l'exclusion d'applications dans le domaine médical. NOTE Partout ou sont utilisés dans la présente norme les mots spécifiques a un genre tels que "son", "sa", "il" ou "elle" l'autre genre s'applique également.

Non-destructive testing - Qualification and certification of NDT personnel (ISO 9712:2022)
EN ISO 9712:2022

This document specifies requirements for the qualification and certification of personnel who perform
industrial non-destructive testing (NDT) in the following methods.
a) acoustic emission testing;
b) eddy current testing;
c) leak testing (hydraulic pressure tests excluded);
d) magnetic testing;
e) penetrant testing;
f) radiographic testing;
g) strain gauge testing;
h) thermographic testing;
i) ultrasonic testing;
j) visual testing (direct unaided visual tests and visual tests carried out during the application of
another NDT method are excluded).
The system specified in this document is also applicable to other NDT methods or to NDT techniques
within an established NDT method, provided a comprehensive scheme of certification exists and
the NDT method or NDT technique is covered by international, regional or national standards or the
NDT method or the NDT technique has been demonstrated to be effective to the satisfaction of the
certification body.
NOTE 1 The term "industrial" implies the exclusion of applications in the field of medicine.
NOTE 2 CEN/TR 14748 provides guidance on the methodology for qualification of non-destructive tests.
NOTE 3 This document specifies requirements for what are, in effect, third party conformity assessment
schemes. These requirements do not directly apply to conformity assessment by second or first parties, but
relevant parts of this document can be referred to in such arrangements.
NOTE 4 The term “direct unaided visual testing” implies where there is an uninterrupted optical path from
the observer’s eye to the test area and the observer uses no tools or devices (e.g. mirror, endoscope, fibre optic).
NOTE 5 Calculations of strain based on other NDT methods are excluded.

This document specifies the form of the optotype, the test procedure and the acceptance level for near vision acuity of NDT personnel. It also addresses the qualification requirements for personnel permitted to carry out the test.
This standard only addresses near vision acuity under defined conditions similar to those encountered during routine NDT inspection. It does not address an individual’s overall visual acuity and users are advised to consider the need for a general eye examination by specialist medical personnel to ensure general vision acuity is appropriate for job function.
This document does not address colour vision requirements.

SIST EN 4179:2022(Main)
Aerospace series - Qualification and approval of personnel for non-destructive testing
EN 4179:2021

1.1   Purpose
This document establishes the minimum requirements for the qualification and certification of personnel performing nondestructive testing (NDT), nondestructive inspection (NDI), or nondestructive evaluation (NDE) in the aerospace manufacturing, service, maintenance and overhaul industries. For the purposes of this document, the term NDT will be used and will be considered equivalent to NDI and NDE.
In Europe, the term "approval" is used to denote a written statement by an employer that an individual has met specific requirements and has operating approval. The term "certification" as defined in 3.2 is used throughout this document as a substitute for the term "approval". Except when otherwise specified in the written practice, certification in accordance with this document includes operating approval.
1.2   Applicability
This document applies to personnel using NDT methods to test and/or accept materials, products, components, assemblies or sub-assemblies. This document also applies to personnel: directly responsible for the technical adequacy of the NDT methods used, who approve NDT procedures and/or work instructions, who audit NDT facilities, or who provide technical NDT support or training.
This document does not apply to individuals who only have administrative or supervisory authority over NDT personnel or to research personnel developing NDT technology for subsequent implementation and approval by a certified Level 3. Personnel performing specialized inspections using certain direct readout instruments as determined by a Level 3 certified in the method, do not require qualification or certification to this document.
1.2.1   Implementation
This document addresses the use of a National Aerospace NDT Board (NANDTB). NANDTBs are only used as specified per Annex C and it is not mandatory to have such a board for compliance with this document. Personnel certified to previous revisions of NAS 410 or EN 4179 need not recertify to the requirements of this document until their current certification expires.
1.3   Methods
1.3.1   Common methods
This document contains detailed requirements for the following common NDT methods:
Eddy Current Testing   (ET)
Liquid Penetrant Testing   (PT)
Magnetic Particle Testing   (MT)
Radiographic Testing   (RT)
Thermographic Testing   (IRT)
Ultrasonic Testing   (UT)
1.3.2   Other methods
When invoked by engineering, quality, cognizant engineering organization or prime contractor requirements, this document applies to other current and emerging NDT methods used to determine the acceptability or suitability for intended service of a material, part, component, sub-assembly or assembly. Such methods can include, but are not limited to, acoustic emission, neutron radiography, leak testing, holography, and shearography. The requirements for personnel training, experience, and examination for these other methods are established in accordance with 6.4 and are documented by the employer.
