3 Terms and Definitions
What is defined in GB/T 12604.1, and the following terms and definitions are applicable to this
document.
3.1 test object
Test object refers to the component under test.
4 Ultrasonic Testing System
4.1 General Rules
The testing adopts ultrasonic pulse reflection technique. For planar and volumetric
discontinuities parallel to the test surface, a straight probe (single crystal or double crystal) and
longitudinal waves shall be adopted for the testing.
For discontinuities in other directions, longitudinal-wave double crystal angle probe or
transverse-wave angle probe may be adopted for the testing.
The nominal frequency of the probe shall be selected in accordance with the testing purpose
and material characteristics.
The probe frequency should be 2 MHz ~ 6 MHz. If the test verifies that the sensitivity satisfies
the requirements, probes with other frequencies can also be used.
The performance of the ultrasonic testing instrument shall comply with the requirements of ISO
22232-1. The performance of the probe shall comply with the requirements of ISO 22232-2.
The combined performance of the testing system shall be regularly inspected in accordance
with ISO 22232-3.
4.2 Requirements for Probes
4.2.1 Longitudinal-wave single crystal straight probe
The depth range of optimal sensitivity depends on the dimensions of the crystal plate. The depth
range should be determined based on the area where discontinuities are expected to be detected.
4.2.2 Longitudinal-wave double crystal straight probe
The depth range of optimal sensitivity (see Appendix A) depends on the dimensions of the
crystal plate and the roof angle. The depth range should be determined based on the area where
discontinuities are expected to be detected.
4.2.3 Longitudinal-wave double crystal angle probe
The longitudinal-wave refraction angle should be between 65 ~ 80. The selection of the tilt
angle, shape and dimensions of the crystal plate shall ensure that the depth range of optimal
sensitivity (see Appendix A) can cover the area where discontinuities are expected to be
detected.
Description of indexes:
1---probe;
2---focal zone length;
3---focal length;
X---reflector depth;
Y---echo height.
NOTE: when using the reference test block in the Figure, it should be ensured that all reference reflector
echoes with unmarked dimensions are effectively identified.
Figure 2 -- Reference Test Block for the Determination of Focal Zone Length of Double
Crystal Angle Probe
4.4.2 Sensitivity settings
For sensitivity settings, the reference reflector (shape and dimensions) should be selected based
on the type of discontinuities expected to be detected.
The reference test block with the same or similar compound process as the test object shall be
selected to adjust the sensitivity. The cladding thickness, surface state and shape of the reference
test block shall be the same as those of the test piece (see Chapter 5). If the probe is surface
matched with the test surface of the test object, the reference test block shall have a curved
surface state that matches the probe, as shown in 4.2.5.
For the testing of volumetric discontinuities, the reflector is a transverse hole, for example, a
transverse hole with a specification of ϕ3 mm 30 mm located near the interface of the base
material can be used (see Figure 3).
For claddings connected by fusion welding, one transverse hole shall be perpendicular to the
direction of the weld and the other transverse hole shall be parallel to the direction of the weld.
For claddings connected by two or more layers of fusion welding, corresponding transverse
holes shall be machined on each cladding.
For the testing of discontinuities parallel to the test surface, when using a straight (single crystal
or double crystal) probe, flat-bottomed holes should be used to set the sensitivity.
For planar discontinuities perpendicular to the test surface, an angle probe should be used to set
the sensitivity on the reflector groove.
Position 1, Position 2 and Position 3 shown in Figure 3 represent the mode of generating
reference reflector echoes when the ultrasonic testing instrument is used to set the testing
sensitivity. The echo amplitude should be adjusted to 80% of the full screen.
Description of indexes:
1---Position 1;
2---Position 2;
3---Position 3;
4---cladding;
a---thickness of test block;
b---width of test block;
c---length of test block;
d---the distance between the reflector and the edge of the test block;
e---the distance between the reflector and the edge of the test block;
A---self-transmitting and self-receiving straight probe;
B---one-transmitting and one-receiving angle probe.
NOTE: the selection of a, b, c, d and e dimensions should ensure good coupling between the probe and
the test object, and the shape of the test block does not affect the gain setting.
Figure 3 -- Sensitivity Settings of Reference Test Block with Cladding
5 Test Preparation
If it is specified that discontinuities generated in a certain particular stage of the manufacturing
process shall be tested, then, the testing shall be performed after the completion of that stage.
Before the testing, the size of the test area shall be determined.
In the test area, the test surface should be well prepared for the testing, so that the probe and
the workpiece are well coupled. The surface condition shall satisfy the signal-to-noise ratio
requirements specified in 4.4.2.
6 Test Procedures
6.1 General Rules

type and direction of the typical discontinuities that may be present shall be considered based
on the type of cladding.

1) Testing personnel;
2) Testing date;

height; display of sensitivity used to generate reference reflector echo that is 80%
of screen height and recorded sensitivity used in the testing;
12) Signal-to-noise ratio (the difference between the echo height and the noise level
that shall be recorded, expressed in dB).

1) Position of discontinuities of the test object, which is recorded with coordinates
(longitudinal / transverse);
2) Discontinuity depth and echo height (reference sensitivity dB);
3) Discontinuity length and width measured by the 6 dB method;

surface conditions or the process structure or dimensions of the test object)
