2 SUBMITTED by the Technical Committee for standardization TC 357 «Steel and cast iron pipes and cylinders"

3 APPROVED AND put INTO EFFECT by the Federal Agency for technical regulation and Metrology of June 11, 2014 N 540-St

4 this standard is identical with ISO 11484:2009* «Steel products. The system of attestation by the employer of the personnel engaged in nondestructive testing» (ISO 11484:2009 «Steel products — Employer''s qualification system for non-destructive testing (NDT) personnel»).
The name of this standard changed with respect to names specified international standard for compliance with GOST R 1.5 (subsection 3.5).

In applying this standard it is recommended to use instead of the referenced international standards corresponding national standards of the Russian Federation, details of which are given in Appendix YES

5 INTRODUCED FOR THE FIRST TIME


Application rules of this standard are established in GOST R 1.0−2012 (section 8). Information about changes to these recommendations are published in the annual (as of January 1 of the current year) reference index «National standards» and the official text changes and amendments — in monthly information index «National standards». In case of revision (replacement) or cancellation of these guidelines, a notification will be published in a future issue of monthly index «National standards». Relevant information, notification and lyrics are also posted in the information system of General use — on the official website of the Federal Agency for technical regulation and Metrology on the Internet (www.gost.ru)

Introduction


This standard is identical to the international standard ISO 11484:2009 «Steel products — qualification System the employer of personnel non-destructive testing (NDT)».

International standard ISO 11484:2009 was developed taking into account the provisions of ISO 9712:2005 and can be used by the employer to assess the qualifications of the staff responsible for the inspection of steel products. The qualification of personnel performing nondestructive testing other products, can be carried out in accordance with the requirements of ISO 9712:2005, unless otherwise specified in the relevant normative documents.

In the text of this standard compared to ISO 11484:2009 changed some phrases with the purpose of observance of norms of the Russian language and in accordance with the national terminology.

Replaced the names of NDT methods used in the national practice, namely the «leakage» is replaced by «method of leakage detection», «control probes, magnetic flux leakage» is replaced by «method of magnetic flux dispersion».

In section 6 «Requirements and procedure for qualification assessment» add reference to figure 1 that is absent in ISO 11484, figure 1, is moved from the end of the standard in the corresponding section 6.

This standard is supplemented by a reference app YES, contains information about the compliance of the referenced international standards reference the national standards of the Russian Federation.

1 Scope

1.1 this standard defines a system of evaluation by the employer of staff, carrying out non-destructive testing of following types of steel products:

— pipes and pipe products (seamless and welded);

— sheet and hot-rolled coil, rail, billet, profiles, rods, wire.

1.2 this standard specifies requirements for evaluating the qualifications of the staff of the 1st and 2nd skill levels (more levels), carrying out non-destructive testing of steel products specific methods. Assessment of qualifications is carried out by the employer in respect of a specific product and a specific NDT method.

1.3 this standard applies to personnel performing nondestructive testing of steel products with the use of any of the following methods:

a) eddy current (ET);

b) the magnetic flux dispersion (FT);

c) leakage detection (LT);

d) capillary (RT);

e) magnetic particle (MT);

f) radiographic (RT);

g) ultrasonic (UT);

h) visual (VT).

Note — the Method of magnetic flux of dispersion is not standardized in the national standardization, but also used for inspection of steel products produced according to international and regional standards.

b) 2nd level — in accordance with documented instructions, requirements, specifications, rules and standards.

A candidate for the 2nd level should be able to develop documented instructions for the personnel of the 1st level.

For practical examination for each method of nondestructive testing the assessment of the qualification must choose at least two products. These samples should not be used in training and/or production activities of the candidate.

Authority for assessment of the qualification must ensure unambiguous identification of the examination of each sample and a passport for each sample, which indicated all of the settings of equipment used to detect binding to detect defects.

8.3 Conduct of examinations


Authority for assessment qualification responsible for delivery of all exams to the employer.

The examiner must be able to assess the level of the candidate in accordance with documented procedures established or approved by the authority for skills assessment.

Assessment of qualifications should include:

check the right of the applicant to the examinations;

— the surrender of General, special and practical exams;

— coverage of specific NDT method in the form in which it is used in the manufacture of steel products.

In accordance with the requirements of this standard, the authority for the evaluation in its decision to release the individual experts of the 1st and 2nd levels, certified in accordance with ISO 9712 or an equivalent document, from the qualification exams in 8.2.

Examinations carried out on various types and sizes for specific products with the purpose of confirming candidates 'knowledge of the corresponding processes, types of defects and non-destructive testing equipment, as well as to confirm the candidates' ability to solve the required tasks for non-destructive testing.

The qualification and the certificate must relate to a particular kind of steel products (pipes, sheet metal, etc.).

8.4 Evaluation of results of examinations


The results of the overall exam assessed separately from the results of a special exam so that the candidate could, if necessary, to be ekzamenov for a qualification in another industry metallurgical industry without re-taking the General exam. Thus, a qualified person under the control of steel products of another species has another advantage — the results of the General examination is valid for all branches of the metallurgical industry.
