Appendix B (mandatory). Method of eddy current testing of rectangular copper pipes

Appendix B
(required)

B. 1 Purpose and scope

B. 1.1 Method of eddy current testing used to detect discontinuities of the material (in the form of cracks, delaminations, bubbles, shells, scratches, holes, dents, non-metallic inclusions etc.) on the outer and inner surfaces and in the thickness of the material of rectangular copper pipes with wall thickness from 1 to 1.5 mm inclusive.

B. 1.2 Eddy current testing according to this method provides the identification in the annealed tube defects that give equal or greater distortion of the electromagnetic field, than an artificial defect, which mutes the sensitivity of the flaw detector. The actual dimensions of the defects, their form and character is determined by metallographic studies.

B. 2 General requirements for inspection

B. 2.1 For control of rectangular copper pipes with wall thickness up to 1.5 mm inclusive are used:

— eddy current flaw VD-30P (or other device with similar characteristics);

— set walk-through eddy current probes (sensors) of different diameters;

— drawl-centering device with automatic sorting or automatic marks defective areas;

— the reference (standard) sample.

B. 2.2 Eddy current flaw detector shall be fitted with a drawl-centering device that provides a rigid alignment of the pipe in the area of control and stable speed of its movement. Indicator electrical centering is the independence of signal intensity from the position of the discontinuities on the circle. The inconsistent may be either natural (previously discarded tube) and artificial.

B. 2.3 Recommended internal bore of the Converter to select so as to obtain the maximum filling of the hole, i.e. the diameter of the through hole of the sensor does not exceed the diameter of the testing pipe by more than 3 mm.

B. 2.4 Equipment, which carry out control pipe must be fitted with a device to suppress the signal of the end effect.

B. 2.5 Broaching centering device is an Electromechanical means of feed pipe passing through the Converter.

The device must support the tube concentrically relative to the electrical center of the coil passage of the transducer.

B. 3 Selection of the reference (standard) samples for flaw detector sensitivity adjustment

B. 3.1 For setting eddy current flaw detector to a predetermined sensitivity made special reference (standard) samples of pipe sections with a length of 1000−1500 mm, having a cross section of the testing pipe.

B. 3.2 a Section of pipe from which is made the standard sample, must not have any defects listed in 5.4 of this standard.

B. 3.3 At a distance of 500−700 mm from the end of the sample, in the center of the broad side, drill two through holes with a diameter of 1.0 and 0.8 mm at a distance of at least 250 mm from each other, enough to flaw recorded individual signals from each hole without interference from the ends of the sample.

B. 3.4 the Reference sample is considered valid if it has certificate approved by the chief of the Central laboratory of the manufacturer.

B. 3.5 the Reference sample is used to configure the detector for minimum sensitivity control, providing reliable detection of all available on the sample of artificial discontinuities for periodic testing of the controls.

B. 3.6 Reference samples made from tubes of the same alloy, condition, size, and controlled the pipe. Allowed divergence of the reference model with controlled only the pipes of wall thickness, but not more than 0.5 mm.

B. Preparation of 4 eddy current flaw detector for control

B. 4.1 Pipe needs to be cleaned of dust, dirt, oil, significant burned-on food grease, metal cuttings, loose scale and other surface contamination.

B. 4.2 Before you begin monitoring the detector output on the mode and test its performance in accordance with the technical description, operating instructions and methods of control.

B. 4.3 Setting the sensitivity of the detector is performed using reference samples, and it must meet the conditions of production control tubes. The correct setup of eddy current flaw detector should be checked when switching from one size to another, but not less than 2 h after the operation.

B. 4.4 When configuring the device the speed of the sample must correspond to the speed of the controlled tubes.

B. 5 control

B. 5.1 Pipe for one served in a drawl-centering device, designed to supply pipes to the sensor of the flaw detector with a certain constant speed, providing the detection of critical defects.

B. 5.2 Check the defective portion of the pipe is carried out according to light up the scoreboard, «Marriage», the light which illuminates the passage of this pipe section through the sensor or the control system, providing the sort of controlled pipes to appropriate and do not meet the technical requirements of the caller and stop the rewinding machine. In addition, it can be connected by marking the device.

B. 5.3 Defective portion of the pipe mark the drilling holes with a diameter of 2.0 mm.

Allowed a defective pipe to mark the drilling of the wall of pipe diameter drill bit 3.0 mm.

B. 5.4 If the passage of the pipe does not occur, the signal «Marriage," indicating the presence of unacceptable discontinuities in it, then the pipe is considered suitable. Otherwise, the pipe shall be rejected.

B. 5.5 is allowed no more than four critical defects on the pipe section length of 200 m.

B. 5.6 Control settings eddy current flaw detector should be carried out before each start of work and periodically every 2 hours of continuous operation by two to three times a day with passing the sample through the installation.

B. 5.7 When they detect violations of setup control pipe should be discontinued until recovery mode of operation of the equipment. All pipes are inspected for these violations, subjected to repeated testing.

B. 6 processing of the results

B. 6.1 Results eddy current tubing inspection log, which shall be specified the basic conditions of inspection: reference sample, the type of installation, the volume control, the operating frequency, the size of passage of the transducer.

B. 6.2 journal Entries are used for statistical analysis of the effectiveness of the control tubes and the state of the technological process of their production.
