operators, each 30-minute maximum time interval, or when the electrical circuitry is disturbed in any way, which includes the following: (1) Transducer change (2) Battery change (3) Electrical outlet change. (4) Coaxial cable change. (5) Power outage (failure). 7.4 Calibration for straight beam testing of base metal shall be made with the search unit applied to topside of the base metal and performed as follows: 7.4.1 The horizontal sweep shall be adjusted for distance calibration to present the equivalent of at least two-plate thickness on the CRT screen. 7.4.2 The sensitivity shall be adjusted at a location free of indications so that the first back reflection from the far side of the plate will be minimum 75% of full screen height. 7.5 1) Calibration for angle beam testing shall be performed as follows. The standard sensitivity for examination of production welds using amplitude techniques shall be: Basic sensitivity + Distance amplitude correction + transfer correction. Note: The horizontal location of all screen indications is based on the location at which the left side of the trace deflection breaks the horizontal base line. 2) Basic Sensitivity: The reference level screen height shall be obtained using a 1.5mm side drilled hole from a calibration block as shown in figure K-7 of Annex K of AWS D1.1. Refer to Annexure 1. Alternately, the sensitivity can be adjusted with the 1.5mm diameter SDH on IIW V1 calibration block. This shall be the reference level (b).

3) Distance Amplitude Correction: A distance amplitude curve shall be drawn with the 1.5mm SDH at different depths/ sound paths. This will be the standard sentivity level.

suitable basic calibration block and adjust the amplitude to 80% ( 5%) full screen height mark the peak and note the dB required. This shall be the primary reference. 3.2 Position the search unit without changing the sensitivity (dB) to produce maximum response from the second reference hole on the screen and mark the peak. 3.3 Position the search unit without changing the sensitivity (dB) to produce maximum response from the third reference hole on the screen and mark the peak. 3.4 Connect the peaks of this amplitude and this line shall be the primary reference level. Alternately, the attenuation factor can be established by substracting 1 (25mm) from the sound path distance and multiplying the remainder by 2. This factor shall be rounded out to the neaest dB value. 4) Transfer correction: Transfer correction may be used to accommodate ultrasonic testing through tight layers of paint not exceeding 0.25mm in thickness. The surface finish of the calibration block shall be a representative of the surface finish of the component, however transfer mechanism may be used to correlate the amplitude from basic calibration block and the production material. Transfer correction shall be accomplished by using the transmission method utilizing two identical angle probes. For material thickness, less than 25.4mm at least full skip shall be used. The amplitudes of both calibration block and production material shall be evaluated at 40% of full screen and this difference shall be noted and used for the correction of the Standard Sensitivity level and this shall be the corrected Standard Sensitivity level. 5) Weld scanning of T K and Y connections shall be from the branch member surface. Refer Annexure-2. All examinations shall be performed in leg 1 & 2 only, wherever possible. For initial scanning, the sensitivity shall be increased by 12 dB more than the standard sensitivity level. However evaluation shall be performed with respect to the standard sensitivity level. 6) Optimum Angle: Indications found in the root areas of groove welds and in the fusion line of the welds shall be further evaluated with an angle, which nearest to the perpendicular of the fusion face. Calibration check for DAC:During examination calibration shall be checked for reference DAC at least once every two hours or whenever the peak drops below 20% of DAC, equipment on / off, change of technician, battery change, mal-functioning of the equipment is noticed.

8.1 The area adjacent to the weld from which scanning is to be conducted shall be scanned with a 0 compressional probe and the thickness shall be recorded. Areas where laminar type defects are together with other reflectors that may interfere with the shear wave scan shall be reported. 8.2 A Compression probe scan shall be conducted on the continuous member of T,K and K joints prior to fit-up. Reflectors within 150mm (6 inches) of the intended weld location shall be evaluated in accordance with API RP 2X level C acceptance criteria. Cylinderical sections shall be rptated to avoid unacceptable reflectors within 150mm (6inches) of the attachment weld. SCANNING 9.1 Scanning shall be by contact method using manual, semi-automatic or automatic mechanism. Recording may be carried out using automatic alarm recording system or by manual method. Scanning shall be carried out such that entire volume of weld is tested for longitudinal and transverse discontinuities. 9.2 The volume to be scanned shall be examined by moving the search unit over the scanning surface so as to scan the entire examination volume for each required search unit.Each pass of the search unit shall overlap a minimum of 10% of the active transducer (piezoelectric element) dimension perpendicular to the direction of scan. Where mandated by code requirements, the percent minimum overlap may be increased. 9.3 Alternatively, each pass of the search unit may overlap a dimension less than the minimum beam dimension (beam spread) if the same is already known. Oscillation of the search unit is permitted provided improved coverage is demonstrated. 9.4 The pulse Repetition rate shall be small enough to assure that a signal from a reflector located at the maximum distance in the examination volume will arrive back at the search unit before the next pulse is placed on the transducer.The rate of search unit movement (scanning speed) shall not exceed 6 inch /s (152 mm/s).Scanning shall be performed from the branch connection. 9.5 Each weld joint shall be examined with sufficient probe angles to guarantee full coverage of the joint.scanning shall be done from both sides of the weld and outside surfaces where access permits if the member thickness exceeds 25mm(1 inch). Refer to API RP 2X, Paragraph 3.4.2 for UT equipment requirements. Where problem exist in coverage of a weld joint due to material, configuration, surface condition, etc; probes ofof a different frequency will be used in addition to the basic API RP 2X probe requirements. 9.6 Prior to shear wave examination, a compression probe search shall be conducted to confirm that no lamination type defects exist within the scanning surface of members at T,K and Y joint weld locations, which will mask the shear wave examination. 9.7 Prior to conducting shear wave examination, the operator shall ensure that both weld deposits and surrounding areas are sufficiently smooth to avoid spurious indications. The maximum surface correction factor is exceeded, additional surface grinding shall be performed prior to final ultrasonic examination.All flaw indications which exceeds 50% of the reference level shall be investigated and detailed in the operators report.
