ASNT UT Level II Course Training and certification

This course focuses on the theory and principles of ultrasound – Properties of sound – Modes of Propagation – Behavior of sound in a material – Snell’s Law Mode Conversion – Ultrasonic Equipment's – Probes – Components of ultrasonic flaw detector (UFD) – Calibration Block, Reference block – Transfer Correction – Calibration of Equipment's – Beam spread, Attenuation – Sensitivity setting – Thickness Measurement and lamination checks – UT Methods – Ultrasonic Equipment Checks – Ultrasonic Testing of welds scanning  – Flaw Sizing Methods – Immersion, PAUT, TOFD and advancements – Scan Representations – Scanning Pattern, Interpretation & Evaluation – Acceptance Criteria – Echo Dynamic Pattern & Reporting – Welding Processes and Weld defects – Number of practical exercises on test specimens containing simulated flaws.

This course exceeds the instruction outline and criteria specified in the ASNT Recommended Practice SNT-TC-1A, ANSI/ASNT CP-189 and ASNT Standard Topical Outlines for Qualification of Non-destructive Testing Personnel (ANSI/ASNT CP-105).

Ultrasonic Testing theory classes will be organized through online and/or offline and hand-on practical section will be arranged nearest feasible NDT test center.

Course Objectives:

The course objectives are as below:
