1 Equipment For Non Destructive Testing

2 ULTRAVIOLET LAMPS The Chemetall range of UV lights are designed for use with fluorescent dye penetrant and fluorescent magnetic particle inspection processes. The standard CFL 100F Lamp is available as a hand lamp or with an adjustable arm attachment for bench use. This lamp provides a UV intensity of between 3,500 and 5,000 µwatts / sq.cm. (at 380mm) and is dual voltage for 110V or 240V mains supplies. CFL 100F Hand Lamp If a high intensity illumination lamp is required, then the EFL 400 Flood Lamp can be supplied, which is also dual voltage for 110V and 240V operation. This fan cooled inspection lamp will provide 8,000 µwatts / sq.cm. (at 380mm). EFL 35 Watt Mains Operated Lamp For portability the lighter and more compact lamp, the EFL 35 Watt Lamp comes as a mains or battery operated unit and provides an output in excess of 10,000 µwatts / sq.cm. It has a DUV gas discharge lamp giving almost immediate hot strike so provides full output straight away on switch-on. This fan cooled inspection lamp will provide 8,000 µwatts / sq.cm. (at 380mm). ULTRAVIOLET AND WHITE LIGHT METERS Measurement of UV and visible light intensity is an important aspect of control in the inspection process for fluorescent dye and magnetic particle inspection. Chemetall can supply combined meters such as the Elyscan 2 or the DSE 100X for measuring both UV and visible light. Instruments specifically for white light include the DL3 Visible Light Meter. For UV light the DM 365 Digital Meter or the J221 Analogue Meter are also available. Elyscan 2 Visible / UV Meter Many of the instruments are designed for portable use in a range of applications from general purpose laboratories to aerospace and offshore use. Chemetall can advise on the instruments best suited to the individual application. A re-calibration service for all light meters can be provided on request. DL3 Visible Light Meter

3 PERMANENT AND ELECTROMAGNETS The Elymag 1 is a permanent yoke magnet for magnetising ferrous items that are to be tested by magnetic particle inspection. It is ideal for use where electromagnets are impractical or even prohibited on safety grounds. The Elymag 1 has rotating pole pieces on the end of hinged arms to facilitate easy local inspection of a wide range of items. The CEY Adjustable Yoke Electromagnet is also designed for magnetisation of parts during magnetic particle inspection. Versions of this unit are available for 240V, 110V or 48V supplies. Elymag 1 Permanent Magnet Accessories available for these units include an Induction Light, which attaches to the legs of the electromagnet to enable indications to be visible in conditions of poor lighting, and test weights (18 kg and 4.5 kg) that can be used to check the serviceability of both permanent and electromagnets. CEY Adjustable Yoke Electromagnet MAGNETIC PARTICLE INSPECTION FUNCTION TEST EQUIPMENT Non-destructive testing is critical to many manufacturing, maintenance and overhaul processes. Such testing is crucial to provide confidence in the operation of aircraft, oil exploration equipment, pressure vessels and so much of the machinery and infrastructure that we come into contact with every day. But how can we be sure that the testing process itself is efficient and effective? Chemetall can supply various items of equipment, which are designed to assist an operator to conduct the testing process according to the requirements laid down and to ensure that the test equipment and materials are working properly. This includes a range of test equipment used to test for the presence and direction of induced magnetic fields. Settling Tubes ASME Indicator Indicator Strips which can be used to indicate the presence of a magnetic field The ASME Indicator is used to show the direction of the field The Berthold Pentrameter for determining the magnetising efficiency Flux and Field Strength Meters can also be supplied where quantitative measurements of these parameters are needed. Various Test Pieces are available to test the integrity of the process Also available for material testing are: Settling Tubes to test the working strength of magnetic inks Powder Dispensers for Ferromor dry powder products to apply the magnetic particles evenly to the work-piece.

4 PENETRANT INSPECTION ACCESSORIES The standard range of equipment covers units for application and illumination plus safety equipment. Application equipment includes Portable Foam Generators (20 and 50 litre units are standard), a Tricon Water Wash Gun and a SG 17 Air-Water Spray Gun. SG17 Air-Water Spray Gun The wash booth can be illuminated with the Overhead Wash Booth Light, which includes a 4 ft twin fluorescent tube light unit in which the tubes are individually wired and fused to enable both white and UV lights to be incorporated in a single light unit. The unit includes one UV and one white tube. UV Protection Goggles To provide operators with protection from UV radiation, UV Protection Goggles can be supplied. PENETRANT INSPECTION - FUNCTION TEST EQUIPMENT It is essential to ensure that the penetrant inspection process itself is operating correctly and to specification where appropriate. To this end Chemetall can supply a wide array of test pieces to check the process function, Refractomers for testing the concentration of hydrophilic emulsifiers for penetrant removal and Transparent Comparators for assessing the importance of indications given by fluorescent dye penetrants. Refractometer Test pieces include Aluminium Thermal Quench Blocks where the face is divided by a machined groove to provide side by side comparative crack patterns, TAM Inspection Panels and Ni-Cr Test Pieces in pairs with either 10µm, 20µm, 30µm or 50µm thickness of plating. TAM Panel RINSE WATER TREATMENT EQUIPMENT Chemetall can advise on and supply a range of equipment for the treatment of penetrant rinse water prior to discharge to drain.
