Calibration on reference block such as V1 block is accepted for the cases where job configuration does not give back wall echo. 7.3 Time Base Calibration Procedure Calculate the time base position for the first back wall echo. Set the time base controls such that the second back wall echo is set to this value, with the first back wall echo being set to zero. Now, lock all the time base controls other than delay. From this setting, use the delay control to shift the first back wall echo to the calculated position. The time base is now calibrated, lock delay also. Confirm calibration from the position of echoes of other smaller diameter / thickness area wherever possible and correct any errors if necessary. 7.4 Sensitivity Calibration Setting the primary reference level At a suitable gain setting find out which hole provides the highest response. Set the amplitude of this echo to between 70% FSH and 80% FSH using the gain control. This is the reference gain and should not be changed Drawing the DAC curve Use the instrument screen as a graph. At the metal path corresponding to the first hole (which gives highest response), mark the maximized amplitude of the echo. Repeat this for all the other holes. Draw a smooth line through the points so obtained. This is the distance amplitude correction (DAC) curve. Use a suitable marking pen which should not damage the screen protection sheet. 7.5 Scan, Recording and Evaluation Scan at a gain value higher than the above reference gain by 6 db.

Using delay control and time-base control, set the echoes from ID and OD notch to their respective position on the screen. 8.4 Sensitivity Calibration At the metal path corresponding to ID notch, obtain an indication amplitude of approximately 75% FSH at a suitable gain setting and mark it on the screen. This is the reference gain and should not be changed with above gain setting. Mark the maximized echo amplitude from OD notch corresponding to its metal path on the screen. Draw a smooth line through the points so obtained. This is the distance amplitude correction (DAC) curve. 8.5 Scan, Recording & Evaluation Scan at a gain value higher than the above reference gain by 6 db.

16 FOR ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION OF STEEL FORGINGS FOR GENERAL PURPOSE Page 15 of 17 ANNEXURE 4 (Appendix 1 to PP-P-1981, Performance Checks of UT Instrument) A. SCOPE This Appendix describes the procedures to be followed and provides the requirements to be met to check and confirm that an ultrasonic test instrument is performing adequately, if such a check is required by a Specification or Procedure. In using the following directions, indications may need to be maintained on the screen over a length of time, with assurance that there is no change in received echo energy. An immersion fixture with an immersion probe can be very convenient for maintaining this constancy over this period. However, use of such a fixture is not mandatory, though then, care has to be taken that changes do not take place and a recheck shall particularly be done with the old control settings. If the performance of the instrument does not meet the requirements, it shall be serviced and all performance parameters re-evaluated. Such servicing is not within the purview of UT personnel, but must be conducted by the manufacturer, their authorized agents or other electronic servicing personnel of adequate electronic capability. B. AMPLITUDE LINEARITY This parameter is also called Screen Height Linearity. Use any convenient angle beam probe. Set the Suppression or Reject control to minimum (or OFF, if available) which value shall be maintained undisturbed further. Pick up two simultaneous indications from ½ and 3/4T side drilled holes in any convenient test piece or block which can adjusted such as to provide a ratio of 1:2 between indication heights. That is, one echo must be twice the height of the other. It is immaterial which echo appears first on the time-base. In order to obtain this condition, one method is to obtain a stepped block (i.e. one with two distinct thicknesses) and scan it from the un-stepped flat side. On scanning the zone of thickness change, two echoes, backwall echoes from the two thicknesses, will be obtained. By selecting an appropriate probe position, the two echoes can be set at any amplitude ratio to each other, in this case, 1:2 or 2:1. Using Gain, Damping and Filter or any combination of these controls, set the amplitude of the bigger of the two echoes to 80 % full-screen-height. Without permitting probe movement, re-adjust any of the above controls to change the amplitude of the larger of the two echoes successively from 100 % to 20 % in steps of 10 % full-screen-height. Record the amplitude of the smaller echo in each case. This value must be within 5 % full-screen-height of half the bigger echo, rounded off to the nearest 1 %. For example, for the case of the bigger echo being at 60 %, the smaller echo must be within the range of 30 % full-screen-height, ± 5 %. Values outside these call for instrument servicing. C. AMPLITUDE CONTROL LINEARITY Use any convenient probe. Set the Suppression or Reject control to minimum (or OFF, if available) which value shall be maintained undisturbed further. Pick up
17 FOR ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION OF STEEL FORGINGS FOR GENERAL PURPOSE Page 16 of 17 indication from from ½T side drilled in any convenient test piece or block which can readily be maintained stable. Using Gain, Damping and Filter or any combination of these controls, set the amplitude of this echo to 80 % full-screen-height. Only the Gain control or controls shall be adjusted further. Without permitting probe movement, change the Gain by ± 6 db and ± 12 db and record the amplitudes. The table below gives the requirements: Initial amplitude set at % of full screen Gain Control Change Acceptance Limits of Amplitude % of full Screen 80 % - 6 db 32 to 48 % 80 % - 12 db 16 to 24 % 40 % + 6 db 64 to 96 % 20 % + 12 db 64 to 96 % The settings and readings shall be estimated to the nearest 1% of full screen This check shall be done starting with many representative values of Gain, such that the performance of the Gain control system is evaluated over the entire range of gain control. Where more than one calibrated Gain control is available, such as two separate knobs, each of them shall be checked over their range of control. In order to check the gain controls at various ranges, other controls such as Damping and Filter may be set at different combinations at the start of each test sequence of varying the Gain by ± 6 and ± 12 db. The values of 6 and 12 db may be obtained by combining two of the controls. When not using the DGS method, depending on the application, it may be adequate to limit the check to the general range of values in use during actual scans. D. INSTRUMENT TIME -BASE LINEARITY This parameter shall be checked at or near range values corresponding to those normally in use. In the following descriptions, the percentage values refer to the time-base, 0 % and 100 % being the left and right hand extreme graduations. Select a block of uniform thickness of approximately one-fifth of the range to be checked. Use any convenient normal beam probe, and suitable settings for control settings other than those related to the time-base. Calibrate the instrument time-base to five times this thickness, by positioning the second back-wall echo to 40 % and third back-wall echo to 60 % of the screen. This would require adjustments to the Range, Material Calibration and Delay controls or their equivalent. Lock all of these controls other than Delay.
18 FOR ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION OF STEEL FORGINGS FOR GENERAL PURPOSE Page 17 of 17 Using Delay, shift the second back-wall echo to a selected screen division and record the position of the next echo, i.e. the third back-wall echo. Selected screen divisions, in turn, shall be zero, 20 %, 40 % and 80 %. The expected reading shall, in each case be obviously 20 % larger than the selected screen division. In each case the permissible error from expected reading shall be within 2 % of the time-base. In instruments with a total of 50 divisions for the time-base, this will correspond to one such small division. In many instruments, the display does not extend beyond the final time-base mark. In such cases, the check of the last point shall be done in reverse, by shifting the third back-wall echo to the last mark and reading the position of the second back-wall echo. Specifically in the case of the initial or last portions of the time-base twice the error of 2 %, i.e. 4 % may be permitted. This however, is conditional on checks of the 5 to 25 % or the 75 to 95 % or both respectively, additionally being done and the results being within 2 %, (in instruments with 2% as the small division size, these values may be changed to 6 to 26 % and 76 to 96 % respectively).
