General Information

Abstract

This European standard specifies acceptance levels for the time-of-flight diffraction technique (TOFD) of full penetration welds in ferritic steels from 6 mm up to 300 mm thickness which correspond to the quality levels of EN ISO 5817.
These acceptance levels are applicable to indications classified in accordance with CEN/TS 14751.
