(5) Density variation in area of interest shall not be more than 0.8. Other requirements as shown in the procedure shall apply. Make suitable assumption if data given is not sufficient.
RADIOGRAPHIC TESTING PROCEDURE – RS-2 1.1 WELD TYPE TO BE TESTED (a) Circumferential butt joints in piles, process piping, jacket legs and other tubular.

1.3 CODE FOR PROCEDURE AND INSPECTION Based on AWS D1.1 and ANSI B.31.3 (Process piping) 1.4 RADIATION SOURCE 1.4.1 a) Gamma rays: Ir-192 for thickness 6mm to 63mm.CO-60 for thickness > 63 mm. The source size should be lesser that 2mm. Square to minimize un sharpness.

TECHNIQUE
1.6.1
a) Panoramic
Film Speed High Medium Low High High Medium Medium
Trade Name/Brand Agfa gavert D-10 or equivalent D7, Cronex NDT-65 or equivalent D-4, NDT-55 or equivalent. D-10, NDT-75 equivalent D-7, NDT - 65 or equivalent D-7, NDT- 65 or equivalent D-7, NDT-65 or equivalent
Circumferential butt welds in tubulars > or = 10 shall be allowed to be radiographed by this technique wherever possible. In this technique, the radiographic source is kept at the centre of the tubular. The entire weld length shall be divided in equal segments depending upon the standard size of film cassette or “READY-Pack” available. Films shall be adjusted to have atleast 1” overlap on each side. In a full panoramic exposure atleast 3 penetrameters shall be used. Spaced at roughly 1/3 of the circumference apart. In case the panoramic exposure does not cover the entire weld then atleast one penetrameter shall be used for each quadrant of the weld being radiographed. Penetrameter shall be placed on the side nearest to the source (wherever possible). 1.6.1.2 b) DIRECTIONAL EXPOSURE This technique is applied for longitudinal butt welds in plates. It involves radiographing a certain length of weld at a one time directing the penetrating radiation towards it. This may be done with collimator wherever possible to minimize interference by scattered radiation. This also reduces the physiological risks to the operators involved in radiography. The length of film exposed in any single exposure thus depends upon source to film distance (SFD) and the standard film length/cassettes available. The basic idea is that the distance traversed by the penetrating radiation through the medium being subjected to radiography at the edge of the segment should not be greater than 1.1 times that at the centre of the segment. Two penetrameters shall be used one at each end of the exposed length of the film placed on the side nearest to the source of the radiation. Normal SFD for 25 mm. Thick plate and 300 mm length is 350 mm.
1.6.2.1 b) DOUBLE WALL EXPOSURE- SINGLE IMAGE VIEWING This technique may be followed for tubulars with outside diameter greater than 2-1/2” (65mm). The radiographic examination shall be done by viewing single image only. The source shall be located touching the outer side of weld on the side opposite to the location of the film. By this method only one image is obtained on the film. The number of exposures required may be as per the chart A: CHART-A NO OF EXPOUSURES FOR DIFFERENT SIZES SIZE OF THE TUBULAR 2” Sch. 80 2” Sch. 160 2” Sch.80 3” Sch. 160 or XX 5 4” Sch. 40 6” Sch. 40 6” Sch. 80,120,160 8” Sch. 20 8” Sch. 120 10” Sch. 120
MIN NO. OF EXPOSURES (DOUBLE WALL) 3 4 3 4 3 3 4 3 4 4
All piping with wall thickness less than or equal to schedule 80 may be radiographed in 3 segments. In any case there shall be atleast one penetrameter kept at each end of any individual exposure. In case of 2” I.D. lines, only one penetrameter may be allowed (if DIN type is used) because of the fact that the area covered by film is very small. For structural joints radiographs may be taken by dividing the joint into three equal segments, each to be radiographed with separate exposure. 1.6.2.2 DOUBLE WALL DOUBLE IMAGE (Non-overlapping images) Piping with nominal inside dia. <3” may be radiographed by this technique. Inthis technique, the radiation passes through two walls and the weld in both walls in viewed for acceptance in a single exposure. The radiation beam shall be offset from the plance of weld at an angle sufficient to separate the images of the source side and film side portion of the weld, so
that there is no overlap of the areas to be interpreted. This is shown in fig.no.1 X = offset. D = source to film distance. The penetrameter, ‘X’ and ‘d’ should be adjusted so that there is no image overlap and the full image comes well within the area of the film kept for exposure. For such radiography the full radiographic inspection may be done by two exposure taken 90 deg. apart. 1.6.2.3 DOUBLE WALL DOUBLE IMAGE (overlapping images) This technique may be used as an alternative to 1.6.2.2. In this case the beam is in the same plane as the weld. (i.e. X = 0). The shadow of the source side weld overlaps that of the film side. When such a technique is used atleast three exposures shall be made at 60 deg. to each other to cover the full weld joint. 2) GENERAL 2.1 PENETRAMETER The radiography shall be performed with a technique of sufficient sensitivity to display the penetrameter image and specified hole or wire which are essential indications of image quality. The radiograph shall display the identifying numbers of the penetrameter. DIN penetrameter should be placed with wires covering the welds and ASME/ASTM penetrameter should be kept on the parent plate parallel to the weld edge. In case the weld width is more than the length of the wire and if while placing the penetrameter numbers cover a portion of weld the upper portion of the penetrameter viz. DIN 62 FE’ may be removed from the penetrameter to avoid interference. However they may not be done for the lower identification number which indicate the size range (e.g. 6 ISO 12, 10 ISO 16, etc.). For single wall exposures, the penetrameter shall be placed on the source side wherever accessible. For double wall double image technique a source side penetrameter is to beused. When the film density of the two adjacent regions varies more than –15% or +30% from the side on which the penetrameter is kept and additional
penetrameter shall be used in the other region. Thus, sensitivity in both the region will be obtained. SELECTION OF THE PENETRAMETER Wherever ASME penetrameter will be used table T-262.2 and T-272 in ASME Sec. – V will be used as a guideline for the selection. Whenever DIN penetrameters are to be used the following shall be applied for the thickness range being inspected. SINGLE WALL THICKNESS < 8 MM 8 MM TO 33 MM >33 MM. TO 50 MM. > 50 MM.
% SENSITIVITY REQUIRED 3% 2% 1.5% 1%
For the lowest range a default in terms of the sensitivity (for gama radiography) may be waived at the discretion of inspector, in case the weld image appears clear enough. This waiver clause is added after considering the fact that due to the limited radiation spectrum of the radioactive isotope the sensitivity obtained is inherently lower than that obtainable by wide range X-ray spectrum. 2.2 IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS Every radiograph shall have an unmistakable identification number which shall be unique for the particular job being tested. Such information to be provided should include weld joint number, welders identification of sequential number of the radiograph (so that they may be arranged chronologically). These may appear as radiographic images on the screen in which case lead numbers and/or letters may be placed between the film cassettes and the work piece. If for some reason this is not done then the number may be inscribed on to the film by using sharp edge/point. In any case the information desired shall not obscure the area of interest which may include the entire weld and atleast 1 cms. On either edge of the weld. 2.3 LOCATION MARKERS Location markers shall be used on the specimen for demonstrating that the whole area requiring inspection has been covered. The image of these location markers for the co-ordination of the part with the film shall appear on the film without interfering with the interpretation with such an arrangement that it is evident that complete coverage is obtained. These marker positions shall be
marked on the parts and the position of the markers shall be maintained on the part during the radiography. Atleast two location marker shall be visible on each radiograph to identify the area or part being examined. For consecutive radiograph, one marker must be common to adjacent radiograph so that it is evident that the requisite coverage has been given. 2.4 RADIOGRAPHIC DENSITY The transmitted film density at the area of interest shall be 1.8min. for single film viewing for radiograph taken by X-ray source and 2.0 min for radiographs taken with gama ray source. The max. density should be 3.0 (This is subjected to the capacity of the illuminator which is being used. However the maximum density to be viewed shall not exceed 4.0). 2.5 MEASURING FILM DENSITY This may be done by (1) METHOD OF COMPARISON (2) USAGE OF DENSITOME In (1) the density of the area of interest is matched t0 compared with that of a density strip (provided by established film manufacturers) which shows the films of different densities. In (2) the densitometer is first set to zero at the illuminator intensity at the viewing point. The density reading is read off by keeping its photo cell linked sensor behind the film which is kept on the illuminator. Once the densitometer’s original reading is set the intensity of light in the illuminator must not be changed. 2.6 GEOMETRICAL UNSHARPNESS The geometrical unsharpness shall not exceed 0.5 mm for material thickness upto 2”. 2.7 WELD PREPARATION Weld surface irregularities shall be removed to such an extent that the resulting radiographic image due to such irregularities cannot mask or be confused with the image of any discontinuity. All radiographs shall be free from fogging (in the area of interest).
2.8 Processing defects, water marks, scratches, finger prints etc. shall be controlled to a minimum and only such film defects which are readily visible on the surface of film may be condoned. 2.9 SCREENS Lead intensifying screens shall be used in direct contact with both sides of the film. These screens shall be atleast 0.1 mm thick. The front an dback screens may be of the same thickness, but if the loss of details due to back scattered radiation is to be avoided a higher thickness back screen is to be used (Alternatively lead sheets may used to cover such films from back side as which are likely to be affected). In such cases the two different screens shall be indicated by printing “Front” and “Back” on each respectively. The screens shall be free from wrinkles, dirt, grease and scratches. 3.0 FILM PROCESSING Manual processing is done with the following: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
Developer tank Stop bath Fixer Running water tank Wetting agent Pan/Tank
The film is observed under a safe light, which will not photographically affect the film while developing is in progress. After visually verifying that the film is adequate developed (which essentially requires some experience in the field) which should take normally between 3-1/2 and 5-1/2 minutes at a temperature between 23 and 25 deg. C. The film is transferred to stop bath to halt the developing action and later to the fixer so that the image is fixed. After holding for about 5 minutes it may be kept in a running water bath for about 5-10 minutes then kept in a wetting agent pan to ensure that the water will not stick to it while drying. Film drying cabinet may be used in urgent cases. Use of the film drying cabinet may be done in urgent cases. This may be resorted to only if parameters do not change in large volume of work. 4.0 PERSONNEL EVALUATING RADIOGRAPHS: The personnel employed for interpretation of radiographs shall be certified to atleast Level-II or certified for carrying our interpretation of weld radiographs. They should have adequate knowledge of welding processes and welding related defects.

Circumferential butt welds in tubulars > or = 10 shall be allowed to be radiographed by this technique wherever possible. In this technique, the radiographic source is kept at the centre of the tubular. The entire weld length shall be divided in equal segments depending upon the standard size of film cassette or “READY-Pack” available. Films shall be adjusted to have atleast 1” overlap on each side. In a full panoramic exposure atleast 3 penetrameters shall be used. Spaced at roughly 1/3 of the circumference apart. In case the panoramic exposure does not cover the entire weld then atleast one penetrameter shall be used for each quadrant of the weld being radiographed. Penetrameter shall be placed on the side nearest to the source (wherever possible). 1.6.1.2 b) DIRECTIONAL EXPOSURE This technique is applied for longitudinal butt welds in plates. It involves radiographing a certain length of weld at a one time directing the penetrating radiation towards it. This may be done with collimator wherever possible to minimize interference by scattered radiation. This also reduces the physiological risks to the operators involved in radiography. The length of film exposed in any single exposure thus depends upon source to film distance (SFD) and the standard film length/cassettes available. The basic idea is that the distance traversed by the penetrating radiation through the medium being subjected to radiography at the edge of the segment should not be greater than 1.1 times that at the centre of the segment. Two penetrameters shall be used one at each end of the exposed length of the film placed on the side nearest to the source of the radiation. Normal SFD for 25 mm. Thick plate and 300 mm length is 350 mm.
1.6.2.1 b) DOUBLE WALL EXPOSURE- SINGLE IMAGE VIEWING This technique may be followed for tubulars with outside diameter greater than 2-1/2” (65mm). The radiographic examination shall be done by viewing single image only. The source shall be located touching the outer side of weld on the side opposite to the location of the film. By this method only one image is obtained on the film. The number of exposures required may be as per the chart A: CHART-A NO OF EXPOUSURES FOR DIFFERENT SIZES SIZE OF THE TUBULAR 2” Sch. 80 2” Sch. 160 2” Sch.80 3” Sch. 160 or XX 5 4” Sch. 40 6” Sch. 40 6” Sch. 80,120,160 8” Sch. 20 8” Sch. 120 10” Sch. 120

All piping with wall thickness less than or equal to schedule 80 may be radiographed in 3 segments. In any case there shall be atleast one penetrameter kept at each end of any individual exposure. In case of 2” I.D. lines, only one penetrameter may be allowed (if DIN type is used) because of the fact that the area covered by film is very small. For structural joints radiographs may be taken by dividing the joint into three equal segments, each to be radiographed with separate exposure. 1.6.2.2 DOUBLE WALL DOUBLE IMAGE (Non-overlapping images) Piping with nominal inside dia. <3” may be radiographed by this technique. Inthis technique, the radiation passes through two walls and the weld in both walls in viewed for acceptance in a single exposure. The radiation beam shall be offset from the plance of weld at an angle sufficient to separate the images of the source side and film side portion of the weld, so
that there is no overlap of the areas to be interpreted. This is shown in fig.no.1 X = offset. D = source to film distance. The penetrameter, ‘X’ and ‘d’ should be adjusted so that there is no image overlap and the full image comes well within the area of the film kept for exposure. For such radiography the full radiographic inspection may be done by two exposure taken 90 deg. apart. 1.6.2.3 DOUBLE WALL DOUBLE IMAGE (overlapping images) This technique may be used as an alternative to 1.6.2.2. In this case the beam is in the same plane as the weld. (i.e. X = 0). The shadow of the source side weld overlaps that of the film side. When such a technique is used atleast three exposures shall be made at 60 deg. to each other to cover the full weld joint. 2) GENERAL 2.1 PENETRAMETER The radiography shall be performed with a technique of sufficient sensitivity to display the penetrameter image and specified hole or wire which are essential indications of image quality. The radiograph shall display the identifying numbers of the penetrameter. DIN penetrameter should be placed with wires covering the welds and ASME/ASTM penetrameter should be kept on the parent plate parallel to the weld edge. In case the weld width is more than the length of the wire and if while placing the penetrameter numbers cover a portion of weld the upper portion of the penetrameter viz. DIN 62 FE’ may be removed from the penetrameter to avoid interference. However they may not be done for the lower identification number which indicate the size range (e.g. 6 ISO 12, 10 ISO 16, etc.). For single wall exposures, the penetrameter shall be placed on the source side wherever accessible. For double wall double image technique a source side penetrameter is to beused. When the film density of the two adjacent regions varies more than –15% or +30% from the side on which the penetrameter is kept and additional
penetrameter shall be used in the other region. Thus, sensitivity in both the region will be obtained. SELECTION OF THE PENETRAMETER Wherever ASME penetrameter will be used table T-262.2 and T-272 in ASME Sec. – V will be used as a guideline for the selection. Whenever DIN penetrameters are to be used the following shall be applied for the thickness range being inspected. SINGLE WALL THICKNESS < 8 MM 8 MM TO 33 MM >33 MM. TO 50 MM. > 50 MM.
% SENSITIVITY REQUIRED 3% 2% 1.5% 1%
For the lowest range a default in terms of the sensitivity (for gama radiography) may be waived at the discretion of inspector, in case the weld image appears clear enough. This waiver clause is added after considering the fact that due to the limited radiation spectrum of the radioactive isotope the sensitivity obtained is inherently lower than that obtainable by wide range X-ray spectrum. 2.2 IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS Every radiograph shall have an unmistakable identification number which shall be unique for the particular job being tested. Such information to be provided should include weld joint number, welders identification of sequential number of the radiograph (so that they may be arranged chronologically). These may appear as radiographic images on the screen in which case lead numbers and/or letters may be placed between the film cassettes and the work piece. If for some reason this is not done then the number may be inscribed on to the film by using sharp edge/point. In any case the information desired shall not obscure the area of interest which may include the entire weld and atleast 1 cms. On either edge of the weld. 2.3 LOCATION MARKERS Location markers shall be used on the specimen for demonstrating that the whole area requiring inspection has been covered. The image of these location markers for the co-ordination of the part with the film shall appear on the film without interfering with the interpretation with such an arrangement that it is evident that complete coverage is obtained. These marker positions shall be
marked on the parts and the position of the markers shall be maintained on the part during the radiography. Atleast two location marker shall be visible on each radiograph to identify the area or part being examined. For consecutive radiograph, one marker must be common to adjacent radiograph so that it is evident that the requisite coverage has been given. 2.4 RADIOGRAPHIC DENSITY The transmitted film density at the area of interest shall be 1.8min. for single film viewing for radiograph taken by X-ray source and 2.0 min for radiographs taken with gama ray source. The max. density should be 3.0 (This is subjected to the capacity of the illuminator which is being used. However the maximum density to be viewed shall not exceed 4.0). 2.5 MEASURING FILM DENSITY This may be done by (1) METHOD OF COMPARISON (2) USAGE OF DENSITOME In (1) the density of the area of interest is matched t0 compared with that of a density strip (provided by established film manufacturers) which shows the films of different densities. In (2) the densitometer is first set to zero at the illuminator intensity at the viewing point. The density reading is read off by keeping its photo cell linked sensor behind the film which is kept on the illuminator. Once the densitometer’s original reading is set the intensity of light in the illuminator must not be changed. 2.6 GEOMETRICAL UNSHARPNESS The geometrical unsharpness shall not exceed 0.5 mm for material thickness upto 2”. 2.7 WELD PREPARATION Weld surface irregularities shall be removed to such an extent that the resulting radiographic image due to such irregularities cannot mask or be confused with the image of any discontinuity. All radiographs shall be free from fogging (in the area of interest).
2.8 Processing defects, water marks, scratches, finger prints etc. shall be controlled to a minimum and only such film defects which are readily visible on the surface of film may be condoned. 2.9 SCREENS Lead intensifying screens shall be used in direct contact with both sides of the film. These screens shall be atleast 0.1 mm thick. The front an dback screens may be of the same thickness, but if the loss of details due to back scattered radiation is to be avoided a higher thickness back screen is to be used (Alternatively lead sheets may used to cover such films from back side as which are likely to be affected). In such cases the two different screens shall be indicated by printing “Front” and “Back” on each respectively. The screens shall be free from wrinkles, dirt, grease and scratches. 3.0 FILM PROCESSING Manual processing is done with the following: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
Developer tank Stop bath Fixer Running water tank Wetting agent Pan/Tank
The film is observed under a safe light, which will not photographically affect the film while developing is in progress. After visually verifying that the film is adequate developed (which essentially requires some experience in the field) which should take normally between 3-1/2 and 5-1/2 minutes at a temperature between 23 and 25 deg. C. The film is transferred to stop bath to halt the developing action and later to the fixer so that the image is fixed. After holding for about 5 minutes it may be kept in a running water bath for about 5-10 minutes then kept in a wetting agent pan to ensure that the water will not stick to it while drying. Film drying cabinet may be used in urgent cases. Use of the film drying cabinet may be done in urgent cases. This may be resorted to only if parameters do not change in large volume of work. 4.0 PERSONNEL EVALUATING RADIOGRAPHS: The personnel employed for interpretation of radiographs shall be certified to atleast Level-II or certified for carrying our interpretation of weld radiographs. They should have adequate knowledge of welding processes and welding related defects.
