Prova pa shkatërrim - Karakterizimi dhe verifikimi i pajisjes së serisë fazore ultrasonike - Pjesa 2: Sondat (ISO 18563-2:2017)

Non-destructive testing - Characterization and verification of ultrasonic phased array equipment - Part 2: Probes (ISO 18563-2:2017)

Scope

ISO 18563-2:2017 specifies the characterization tests performed at the end of the fabrication of a phased array probe. It defines both methodology and acceptance criteria.
ISO 18563-2:2017 is applicable to the following phased array probes used for ultrasonic non-destructive testing in contact technique (with or without a wedge) or in immersion technique, with centre frequencies in the range 0,5 MHz to 10 MHz:
a) non-matrix array probes:

- linear;
- encircling;
- partial annular sectorial (type "daisy");

b) 2D-matrix array probes.
ISO 18563-2:2017 does not give methods and acceptance criteria to characterize the performance of an ultrasonic phased array instrument or the performance of a combined system. These are given in ISO 18563?1 and in ISO 18563?3.
