Abstract

This document specifies the characterization tests performed at the end of the fabrication of an array probe. It defines both methodology and acceptance criteria. This document is applicable to array probes used for ultrasonic non-destructive testing (phased array technique or signal processing technique, e.g. FMC-TFM) in contact technique (with or without a wedge or delay line) or in immersion technique, with centre frequencies in the range 0,5 MHz to 10 MH. This document does not give methods and acceptance criteria to characterize the performance of an ultrasonic phased array instrument or the performance of a combined system. These are given in ISO 18563-1 and in ISO 18563-3.
