An Introduction to Sonaspection

For twenty years I have been involved with the manufacture offlawed specimens and there is plenty for me to be proud about.My first class staff have spent many years developing and refiningthe art of flaw manufacture and implanting. Sonaspection havemanufactured thousands of flawed specimens for all the majorperformance demonstration, training and qualification centresaround the world.I truly believe that Sonaspection is the leading manufacturer offlawed specimens.

Introduction

If your company is involved with NDE training or certification, then it is importantthat you are aware of Sonaspection and their products.

What are Flawed Specimens

Sonaspection's flawed specimens contain purposely induced real flaws whichare accurately sized and located. Each specimen is supplied withdocumentation detailing flaw types, sizes and location.

NDE Training & Certification

NDE authorities around the world are striving to harmonise NDE training andcertification by introducing and working to the new ISO standards.There is now moreemphasis on the use of flawed specimens to give hands-on practical training and conductmore meaningful and representative certifications.

What are flawed specimens used for

As part of a quality training programme to make sure students are aware of flaws and howthey can be detected, identified and sized using NDE. Flawed specimens can also be usedto perform practical personnel qualification, procedure and equipment development.

Why Sonaspection

Sonaspection is the longest established manufacturer of flawed specimensstarting in 1980, and is the pioneer on many well recognised ‘industrystandard' flaw manufacture and implanting techniques. Sonaspection's flawmanufacturing procedures have, without doubt, been proven as the ‘industrystandard' for consistently able to meet the most exacting tolerances

Contents

Sonaspection have been involved with NDE training and qualification for many years and fromexperience we have developed this range of products which are suitable for all

major training and NDE certification programs.

Introduction to flaws - A set of miniature welds,macro sections and photo-radiographs to

demonstrate the principles of flaw detection,flaw interpretation and basic sizing.

For Level I training and qualification ie ASNT-TC-lA, PCN, EN473 and others

Introduction to basic flaw evaluation - A set ofsmall welds with simple weld geometry's todemonstrate basic flaw detection, sizing and

interpretation.

For Level I & II training and qualification ieASNT-TC-lA, PCN, EN473 and others

Advanced flaw evaluation - Realistic size weldsin most common geometry's available either

individually or in sets for advanced training/practice and qualification.

For Level II Training, practice and qualification ieACCP, ASNT-TC-lA, PCN, EN473, API and others

Full size mock-ups / component simulationscontaining accurately located and sized flaws, simple or complex

weld geometry's, exotic materials.

For specific NDE training, procedure development,personnel training and qualification, specialists trainingand performance demonstration, for example ASME XI

Appendix VII training and ASME XI Appendix VIII.

• Contain a minimum of four specimens• Contain an example of each flaw fromthe flaw table

• May be used for one or more NDT method

Are similar to individual specimens except that:

• Specimens are supplied in a sealed container• Flaw types and distribution are to a specified

standard• Reports are sealed and kept separate from the

TYPES/RANGE

The range of flaws available depends on the type of testing being used. See appropriate Flaw Table for full details

FLAW SIZE RANGE

Flaw length from 1cm (3/8") to 4.5cm (3/4")

Flaw through wall height 0.3cm (1/8") to 0.6cm (1/4")

TOLERANCES

Flaw length ± 0.3cm (1/8")

Flaw height ±0.2cm (5/64")

Distance from datum ±0.3cm (1/8")

Depth from surface ±0.2cm (5/64")

MATERIAL TYPES

All standard-size specimens are manufactured from carbon steel. For plate, tee and Y specimens material is to BS 4360

Grade 43A or equivalent and for pipe specimens is to ASTM, ANSI, API or similar

(Nozzles and nodes are a combination of both)

All pipe sizes are measured outside diameter

INSPECTION

All materials are subject to 100% visual and Non Destructive Examination to ensure that they are free from flaws which may

interfere with product performance.

TOLERANCES

Weld length for plates, tees and Ys, all 30cm (12") ±5%.

Weld length for pipes, nozzles and nodes, all as per diameter

Thickness ±10%

Diameters ±10%

SURFACE FINISH

Parent material adjacent to weld will be a suitable finish for testing the weld profile, either ‘as-welded’ or ground flush

FINAL INSPECTION

All specimens are subject to in-house Visual and Non Destructive Examination. This work is carried out by experienced and

approved technicians

CORROSION PROTECTION

All specimens are coated with a clear corrosion-resistant material before leaving the factory

PACKING

All export orders are packed in wooden crates

Sonaspection reserves the right to alter specifications without notice

Quality Flaws Assured

The high quality of our flaws is achieved by a combinationof first class workmanship a unique blend of welding andnon-destructive testing skills plus a full understanding ofthe product.

Sonaspection adopt a policy of setting new standards and developing new

techniques to improve quality and reliability inorder to assure the quality of our flaws.
