    ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL R44 SERIES

    23-40 Non-Destructive Testing

    WARNING
    Review appropriate Safety Data Sheet (SDS) when working in
    proximity to hazardous materials. Specific recommendations
    for use of personal protective equipment are located in the SDS.

    23-41 Magnetic Particle Inspection


    Ferromagnetic steel parts are inspected for structural defects using magnetic particle
    inspection. Steel parts covered by this specification are inspected per ASTM E1444 wet
    continuous process with ultra-violet light. Applicable requirements and limitations of the
    above standard apply.
    Procedures and equipment used to perform the inspection shall conform to requirements
    of ASTM E1444. A magneto test penetrameter or a 30–60 gauss meter is used to verify
    the direction and effectiveness of all magnetic fields produced. Whenever possible, parts
    shall be inspected with both circular and longitudinal magnetization, but at least in two
    directions at right angles to each other. Minimum duration of application is ½ second.
    Pre- and post-solvent clean parts using PCBTF or similar solvent. Demagnetizing is
    accomplished using AC±3 oersteds maximum. Verify part is demagnetized using a magnetic
    field strength indicator which does not exceed an absolute value above three gauss.
    Area of part to be examined, position of part, directions of magnetization to be used and
    method of establishing the magnetization are presented within the inspection section of
    individual parts. Record the size and location of all rejectable indications.
    A. Inspection Criteria
    Parts (except gears) which are inspected by magnetic particle inspection shall be
    accepted or rejected according to the following criteria:
    Acceptable indications:
    y Indications smaller than 0.015 inch are not considered rateable.
    y Indications caused by sharp changes in cross‑section or part geometry.
    Rejectable indications:
    y Indications interpreted as cracks, seams, laps, shuts, or any flaws which are
    open to the surface.
    y Indications oriented at an angle of more than 15 degrees from the longitudinal
    axis with length exceeding 0.125 inch.
    y Circumferential indications on any shoulder or fillet (changes in diameter).
    y Any indications which break over an edge, shoulder, fillet radius, keyway,
    spline, or an adjacent area of part more than 0.015 inch.
    y Indications caused by undercuts at the toe of a weld.
    y Indications caused by cracks in the weld or parent metal.
    y Indications caused by inclusions in weld material exceeding 0.1 inch in length.

    23-42 Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection
    This specification provides for surface inspection of parts fabricated from nonmagnetic
    materials to detect discontinuities open to the surface, such as cracks, cold shuts, laps,
    porosity and other surface defects.
    Applicable requirements and limitations of ASTM E1417 shall apply. After inspection is
    complete, solvent clean parts.
    The step‑by‑step procedure and equipment used to perform the inspection shall be
    accomplished per ASTM E1417. The following types, methods, and sensitivity levels are
    recommended:
    Type: 1–Fluorescent dye
    Method: A–Water washable
    Sensitivity: Level 2–Medium
    Form: A–Dry powder
    A. Inspection Criteria
    Parts inspected by fluorescent penetrant method shall be accepted or rejected
    on basis of acceptance limits specified. If acceptance limits are not specified,
    rejectable surface defects and any of the following:
    y Cracks
    y Seams
    y Cold shuts or laps
    y Surface inclusions
    y In castings, aligned discontinuous surface indications other than cracks, cold
    shuts and inclusions are rejectable if more than 3/8 inch in length.
    23-50 Corrosion Control
    23-51 Conversion Coat – Aluminum
    Use the following procedures to prepare and apply conversion coat to aluminum alloys.
    Conversion coat improves corrosion resistance and adherence of paint and adhesives.

    CAUTION
    Do not allow Bonderite C-IC 33 Aero or M-CR 1201/1132 Aero
    to contact bonded joints.

    A. Procedure
    1. Unless otherwise specified, lightly scuff clean surface with 320-grit aluminum-
    oxide abrasive paper to remove corrosion or other contaminants.
    2. Apply Bonderite C-IC 33 Aero to surface for 2–5 minutes. DO NOT allow
    Bonderite C-IC 33 Aero to dry; re-apply as required.
    3. Rinse thoroughly with clean, potable water.
