    Std-Insp-0095 (Densitometer Calibration Procedure

    Uploaded by

    Totok Tj Indrianto
    This document provides a calibration procedure for densitometers used in non-destructive testing. It specifies that densitometers must be calibrated every 90 days or after repairs by qualified NDT personnel using a step wedge calibration film traceable to national standards. The calibration procedure involves measuring the density readings on the calibration film and ensuring any differences from actual densities are within +/- 0.05, and correcting the densitometer if not within specification.

    4. Procedure:

    4.1 Frequency of calibration:


    4.1.1 The densitometer shall be calibrated at least every 90 days or
    whenever any major repair has performed and shall be
    documented.
    4.1.2 The densitometer shall also be calibrated in either of following
    situation whichever comes first but test results need not be
    documented.
    a) At the beginning of interpretation of radiography film.
    b) After 8 hours of continuous interpretation of radiography
    film.
    4.2 Step wedge densitometer calibration film:
    4.2.1 The calibrated step wedge densitometer calibration film, with
    calibration traceable to national standard with minimum 5 steps
    having neutral density from at least 1.0 through 4.0 shall be
    used for calibration of densitometer.
    4.2.2 The step wedge densitometer calibration film shall not need to
    calibrate prior to first use and shall be used without verification
    for one year upon opening, provided it is within the
    manufacturer’s stated shelf life. On completion of one year from
    opening, the densitometer calibration film shall be discarded,
    and new densitometer calibration film shall be used.

    DENSITOMETER CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

    4.2.3 The step wedge densitometer calibration strip shall be stored in


    the original light-tight and waterproof sealed package as
    supplied by the manufacturer.
    4.3 Steps for calibration of densitometer:
    4.3.1 Switch on the densitometer and allow it to warm up for period
    recommended by densitometer manufacturer.
    4.3.2 Measure the density on step wedge densitometer calibration
    film and record the result.
    4.3.3 If the density difference between the observed density reading
    by densitometer and actual density reading as per step wedge
    calibration film is within + 0.05, the densitometer performance
    is satisfactory and shall be used for density verification of
    production radiographs.
    4.3.4 If the density difference between the observed density reading
    by densitometer and actual density reading as per step wedge
    calibration film is not within + 0.05, the densitometer
    performance is not satisfactory and densitometer correction
    shall be done as per densitometer manufacturer manual.
    4.3.5 After correction the densitometer shall be once again calibrated
    as per step mentioned above and calibration shall be recorded.
