NM01IQI1B
The SET B Wire Type Image Quality Indicator (IQI) for Steel and Stainless Steel is an indispensable tool for verifying the performance of your radiographic inspections. Designed to help ensure the sensitivity of your radiographic technique when examining steel and stainless steel components, this IQI provides a standardized and reliable method for quality control.
Comprising a carefully selected series of six wires with precisely controlled diameters, this set allows you to objectively assess the level of detail visible in your radiographic images. The wires are presented in a defined length for optimal clarity within the radiograph and are typically encased in a protective, transparent material for durability and ease of handling during inspections. This encapsulation may also include markings to identify the material group and wire set.
By placing this IQI on the part being radiographed, the visual clarity of the smallest discernible wire in the resulting image serves as a direct indicator of the radiographic system's ability to detect fine details, including potential flaws of a corresponding size. This process is crucial for confirming that your inspection technique is adequate for the specific requirements of your application and for maintaining high standards of quality assurance in the examination of steel and stainless steel materials.
