The HPF is used to remove low frequencies produced by slow changes like conductivity shifts and adjust the bandwidth to a neutral frequency to maximize depth of penetration. Pencil probes have a long slender housing to permit inspection in restricted spaces. Probe shielding and loading are sometimes used to prevent external electrical interference and limit/concentrate the magnetic field of the coil. Sliding probes usually operate in reflection mode.

Probe shielding and loading are sometimes used to:
Prevent external electrical interference Limit the spread and concentrate the magnetic field of the coil Magnetically saturate the part None of the above
Narrow EDM notches and saw cuts:
Are never used because they are too wide
Are never used due to their heat affected zones
Are commonly used to represent cracks Both A and B
They transmit a frequency that will slightly resonate the part surface They create a static magnetic field The axis of the coil is perpendicular to the test surface Both B and C
A probe that is often intended to be used in contact with the
test surface is called a: Reference probe Surface probe Transmission probe Reflection probe
An eddy current test circuit will have:
Resistance Inductive reactance A small amount of capacitance All of the above

Probes with iron cores tend to:
Be more sensitive than air core probes and less affected by probe wobble
Be more difficult to use
Increase the background noise of the signal Both B and C
11
Scanning speed must be controlled:
When using a small transducer When using a large transducer When using a high pass filter When using a large low frequency probe
12
The main function of the LPF is to:
Control probe wobble Adjust the machine to the proper conductivity standard Shift the waveform to the left of the screen Remove high frequency interference noise
13
HPF stands for:
High Pulse Filter Harmonic Pulse Filter High Pass Filter High Pulse Factor
14
When testing for surface flaws, the probe drive frequency
used: Should be as high as possible Should be as low as possible Depends on the conductivity and permeability of the material Depends only on the material conductivity
15
The coil in an eddy current probe is most often made from:
Iron Copper
Silver Platinum
16
The HPF allows:
Low frequencies to pass and filters out the high frequencies High frequencies to pass and filters out the low frequencies For the combined frequencies to be adjusted to a harmonic balance The shape of the waveform to be clipped beyond it frequency balance
17
The higher the inductance of a coil at a given frequency:
The more penetrating the eddy currents will be The less sensitive the coil will be The more sensitive the coil will be None of the above
18
When maintaining constant liftoff is a problem, what type of
probe should be used? A absolute probe A differential probe A reflection probe Both B and C
19
Discontinuities, such as delaminations, that are in a plane that
is parallel with the test surface will likely: Be easily detected with a surface probe Be easily detected with an internal probe Be easily detected with an external probe None of the above
20
In almost all cases, eddy current inspection procedures require
the equipment to be calibrated to:
A reference standard An identified defect A crack which is the rejection criteria A crack twice the rejection criteria
