ISO 22232-1:2020

Non-destructive testing - Characterization and verification of ultrasonic test equipment - Part 1: Instruments

This document specifies methods and acceptance criteria within the frequency range of 0,5 MHz to 15 MHz, for assessing the electrical performance of digital ultrasonic instruments for pulse operation using A-scan display, for manual ultrasonic non-destructive testing with single- or dual-transducer probes. This document is also applicable for multi-channel instruments. This document can partly be applicable to ultrasonic instruments in automated systems, but other tests can be needed to ensure satisfactory performance.

This document excludes ultrasonic instruments for continuous waves.

This document also excludes ultrasonic phased array instruments, see e.g. ISO 18563-1. If a phased array instrument has dedicated connectors for single- or dual-transducer probes this document is applicable for these channels.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.
