Re: [MW:4817] UT for IBR

dear all!
 
ibr allows you if you requested, thru letter, prior to do so..
 
please check with IBR 1950 regulation 265[b] and 360[f] for resolve your problem.

Hi Ramesh,
Referring the UT of IBR drum, some brief considerations I hope will be helpful for you :
1. UT and RT are complementary and the best result is when you  use the both;
2. For 100 mm thickness, UT achieves a better sensitivity than RT, especially for higher angled planar discontinuities, but lower (acceptable) accuracy in discontinuity sizing and diagnosis;
Some minimum conditions are necessary for a well done UT:
1. Base material and filler material: close-grained unalloyed steel (or alloyed, but non-austenitic);
2.UT procedure containing (preferably) well known reference documents (ASME, EN, etc.) for UT technique and specific acceptance criteria agreed by client and/or national regulations (if pressure vessel, for example);
3. NDT (UT) certified and authorized personnel, at least level 2, according to (preferably)  recognized standards (SNT-TC-1A, EN 473, etc.);
4. Calibrated ultrasonic instruments, transducers, reference blocks, etc.;
5. Part configuration enables the required  directions of ultrasonic testing and assures the width of scanning area;
6. Scanning surface conditioning is necessary.
Note: If IBR material is austenitic steel or other coarse-grained steel, UT can be possible but RT is better.

Dear All,
 
IBR allows for ut?
MY case is 100mm thk steam drum. I want to do RT of upto 15mm for saving time and after that I want to clear it by UT, is it possible?
 
IBR allows for this?
 
Thanks,
With Best Regards,
Ramesh Barot
