CALIBRATION
4.2.1 Visible light meter (Lux meter) shall be calibrated atleast once a
year or whenever
the meter has been repaired. If meters have not been in use for
one year or more,
calibration shall be before being used.
4.2.2 Lifting power of Yoke: Prior to use, the magnetizing power of
electromagnetic yokes shall have been checked within the past
year. The magnetizing power of permanent magnetic yokes shall be
checked daily prior to use. The magnetizing power of all the yokes
shall be checked whenever the yoke has been damaged or repaired.
Each direct current or permanent magnetic yoke shall have a lifting
power of at least 40 lb (18 kg) at the maximum pole spacing that
will be used. Each weight shall be weighted with a scale from a
reputable manufacturer and stenciled with the applicable nominal
weight prior to first use. A weight need only be verified again if
damaged in a manner that could have caused potential loss of
material.
4.2.3 Magnetic Field Adequacy and Direction: The applied magnetic field
shall have sufficient strength to produce satisfactory indications, but
shall not be strong that it causes masking of relevant indications by
non-relevant accumulations of magnetic particles. Factors that
influence the required field strength include the size, shape and
