Re: [MW:25738] Why x-ray are use for lower thickness

Hi,

BS EN 1435 specified about the selection of source (permit). Please find the extracted pages for your reference. Since I dont have BS EN ISO 17636 , I refer from BS EN 1435.

 

Thanks& Regards,

Hello Everyone,

 

I think some back to basics/fundamentals are required to understand which way to proceed, X-Ray or Gamma Ray for radiography. Source intensity vs. required contrast/density is always a challenge to any radiographer. Skilled radiographer could easily manipulate those with experience.

 

For a thickness of 4 mm, X-Ray would be the way to go, not the Gamma Ray, due to its high intensity and failure to get the right contrast. If isotopes are to be chosen, certainly it WILL NOT be  not Ir-192

 

This paper highlights all the merits/demerits of both the techniques and is worth reading.

 

Thanks.

Dear Sir's,

I agree that , we get better quality of radiograph in xray.
I only want to discussed that,
1) If we want to talk about radiography quality, then if required IQI is visible, then we can say that minimum defects is visible as required IQI is visible.
Code also says that radiographs quality or acceptance, depends on visibility of require IQI.
2) my another point is that, in which section or code, it is mention, that below particular thickness of material, xray to be use and above that thickness, gamma is allowed. So that we can insist contractor to do the same.

Thanks for response.
Expecting the same.

Regards
Prasad

Dear prem and George sir,

Thanks for reply.
I want to ask that if I use the high sourse ir192 and increase the exposure time i.e. time as required by calculation, can I get the good radiographs and using iqi of din standard.
Our thickness of pipe is below 4mm.
We required genuine and technical reason to insist to contractor.
Requesting for response.

Regards
Prasad
