1 Scope
This standard specifies the terms and definitions, general requirements, comparison samples, flaw detection devices, testing methods, testing records and flaw assessment, steel plate quality grading, testing reports, etc. of electromagnetic automatic ultrasonic testing for thicker steel plates.
This standard is applicable to electromagnetic automatic ultrasonic testing for steel plates for boilers, pressure vessels, bridges, buildings, shipbuilding, pipelines, molds and other purposes with a thickness of not less than 6mm. It may also serve as a reference for steel plates of other specifications.
