1、Designation:E141609Standard Test Method forRadioscopic Examination of Weldments1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1416;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parenthes
2、es indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers a uniform procedure for radio-scopic examination of weldments.Requirements expressed inthis test method are intended to control the qu
3、ality of theradioscopic images and are not intended for controlling accept-ability or quality of welds.1.2 This test method applies only to the use of equipmentfor radioscopic examination in which the image is finallypresented on a display screen(monitor)for operator evalua-tion.The examination may
4、be recorded for later review.It doesnot apply to fully automated systems where evaluation isautomatically performed by computer.1.3 The radioscopic extent,the quality level,and the accep-tance criteria to be applied shall be specified in the contract,purchase order,product specification,or drawings.
5、1.4 This test method can be used for the detection ofdiscontinuities.This test method also facilitates the examina-tion of a weld from several directions,such as perpendicular tothe weld surface and along both weld bevel angles.Theradioscopic techniques described in this test method provideadequate
6、assurance for defect detectability;however,it isrecognized that,for special applications,specific techniquesusing more stringent requirements may be needed to provideadditional detection capability.The use of specific radioscopictechniques shall be agreed upon between purchaser and sup-plier.1.5 The
7、 values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.The SI units given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appr
