Non-destructive testing of welds - Phased array ultrasonic testing (UT-PA) for thin-walled steel components - Acceptance levels (ISO 4761:2022)

This document specifies acceptance levels for the phased array ultrasonic testing technique (UT-PA) of full-penetration welds in low-alloy and/or fine-grained steels in the wall thickness range from 3,2 mm to 8 mm which correspond to the quality levels of ISO 5817.
These acceptance levels are applicable to indications detected according to ISO 20601.

Neporušitveno preskušanje zvarnih spojev - Ultrazvočno preskušanje s faznim krmiljenjem (UT-PA) tankostenskih jeklenih delov - Stopnje sprejemljivosti (ISO 4761:2022)

Ta dokument določa stopnje sprejemljivosti za tehniko ultrazvočnega preskušanja s faznim krmiljenjem (UT-PA) zvarnih spojev s popolno penetracijo pri malolegiranih in/ali drobnozrnatih jeklih z debelino sten od 3,2 do 8 mm, ki ustrezajo stopnjam sprejemljivosti iz standarda ISO 5817.
Te stopnje sprejemljivosti se uporabljajo za indikacije, zaznane v skladu s standardom ISO 20601.
