Ultrasonic Wall-Thickness Measurement
CONTENT
Wall-thickness measurements are often used for maintenance tasks performed on pipelines and in ships. For instance, they serve to detect general erosive corrosion or selective corrosion, cavitation or erosion. Staff carrying out these tasks often have sound knowledge of how to assess the findings thus brought to light without having any further skills or knowledge of ultrasonic testing. The candidate’s ability to carry out and evaluate wall-thickness measurements can be confirmed with a limited UT1 (EN ISO 9712) certificate (“slimmed-down” examination with 30 written questions and 1 test specimen). The training course can be shortened to 3 days and restricted to one area of application (e.g. ship maintenance or the production of castings); however, in that case it will not be certifiable under EN ISO 9712.
PROGRAM
This training course addresses persons with at least 3 months’ professional experience of ultrasonic wall thickness measurement.
