Liquid
Penetrant/Magnetic Particle Testing
Course
Description: A theoretical study and practical application of the
non-destructive testing techniques of penetrant and magnetic particle testing
required by quality assurance and test personnel including proper test
technique, or combination of techniques and interpretation, evaluation of test
results.
Learning
Outcomes: Identify and select proper materials and equipment
to perform a liquid penetrant test of a weldment; interpret the results of a
liquid penetrant test to accretion acceptability of the weldment; demonstrate
knowledge of safety precautions relative to fire and toxic hazards; and
identify and properly select equipment used in magnetic particle testing.
Demonstrate knowledge of the principles of magnetic particle, magnetic fields,
current requirements for testing and demagnetization; perform a magnetic
particle examination on a weldment, following established procedures; and
interpret the results of the above test to ascertain acceptability of the
weldment.
