There are no comments for now.

1. NDT inspection methods are used to minimize wasted manpower during manufacturing as well as reduce in -service component failures.
2. The selection of one method over another is usually the decision of the Level 2 technician performing the test.
3. A Level 1 technician performing a Liquid Penetrant Test, is permitted to perform specific tests and calibrations.
4. All three (3) Levels of NDT technicians must take a General, Specific, and Vision Acuity Examination to be certified in accordance with NAS410 guidelines.
5. According to NAS410, a Liquid Penetrant Level 1 technician should have three (3) months hands-on experience in the method, and a minimum of twenty (20) hours of classroom training to qualify for Level 2 certification testing.
6. An NDT Certification is good for the entire time of the technician's employment with the certifying company.
7. The Liquid Penetrant inspector requires a total of 400 hours of experience to be qualified to a Level 2 in accordance with NAS410.
8. The responsibility of issuing a certification to the NDT technician is always given to the employer if NAS410 or SNT-TC-1A documents are the be complied with.
9. The Level 1 or Level 2 inspector is normally certified for a period of five (5) years.
10. Liquid Penetrant testing is always the preferred testing method on stainless steel materials.
11. Magnetic Particle Testing can detect surface and slightly subsurface defects.
12. Liquid Penetrant Testing is not necessary when Radiography is being used as the primary NDT method.
13. Magnetic Particle Testing is more sensitive to detection of surface defects in ferrous steel than the Liquid Penetrant Method.
14. Liquid Penetrant is always the best choice for the detection of surface defects.
15. When doing a liquid penetrant test, the material of the specimen has little effect on the accuracy of the test.
16. "Type I (one)" penetrants are those containing fluorescent dyes.
17. Because of capillary action, penetrant testing works well on parts with very porous surfaces.
18. Liquid penetrant inspection can only be used on metals such as aluminum and steel.
19. The penetrant inspection method is only used on the finished product for final acceptance.
20. Two (2) degrees º is a good contact angle for an effective liquid penetrant.
21. Surface Tension is dependent upon the adhesive and cohesive properties of the penetrant and the surface condition of the test mateiral.
22. The first important step in penetrant testing is Surface Preperation
23. The most common method of surface preparation for penetrant testing is sand blasting.
24. Some discontinuities that are totally subsurface can be located with high sensitive "method B" fluorescent penetrants.
25. Water Washable penetrant is considered the least sensitive of all fluorescent penetrants.
26. The document ASTM E1417/E1417M is the document which presently governs penetrant testing for production inspection of aerospace components.
27. To be detected with penetrant testing, the defect should be open to the surface.
28. The precleaning step should be accompanied with a pre-visual inspection of the test surface to determine if there are any gross discontinuities present or areas of interest..
29. It is considered advantageous for a liquid penetrant to have low viscosity, good wettability, low surface tension and a low contact angle.
30. Liquid penetrant testing can be used on hot and cold surfaces without any effect on the test results.
31. Liquid penetrants can be categorized by the dye they contain and the method of excess penetrant removal.
32. MIL-STD-6866 supersedes ASTM E1417/E1417M
33. A contaminant would be considered any foreign material on the surface of the test piece.
34. AMS-2644 and QPL-AMS-3644 are considered sister documents.
35. A high ambient temperature will cause the penetrant to thicken.
37. Chemical means is the secondary choice for precleaning a part before inspection.
38. The viscosity of the penetrant determines what makes a good penetrant.
39. The original penetrant technique was called the "oil and whiting" method.
40. Carl Betz of Magnaflux is considered the inventor of the liquid penetrant method.
41. Fluorescent penetrant inspection was invented before visible dye penetrant inspection.
42. Personnel at Magnaflux invented the post-emulsified penetrant process.
44. A red discontinuity indication against a white background is found in which penetrant method classification?
46. Which of the following penetrants can be used when inspection must take place under ordinary lighting conditions?
47. A fluorescent penetrant, solvent-removeable process using a non-aqueous developer is classified as:
49. Which of the following is the most widely used color for dyes in visible penetrants?
50. A good commercial penetrant should have what type of Flash Point?
51. Liquid Penetrant examination can detect which of the following types of discontinuities?
52. Which of the following processes would be most sensitive to detecting very fine discontinuities?
55. Which of the following physical properties, more than any other, determines what makes a material a good penetrant?
56. The speed with which a penetrant penetrates a surface discontinuity is influenced to the greatest extent by which of the following properties?
57. Which of the following types of discontinuities cannot be detected by PT?
58. Which of the following discontinuities would be impossible to detect with PT?
60. The attraction of dissimilar molecules is known as:
61. The excess penetrant removal process is classified by method. What is Method A?
