Magnaflux Carrier II NDT-Approved Petroleum Base Suspension Vehicle

Carrier II is a high-purity, NDT-approved suspension vehicle specifically designed for wet method magnetic particle testing. This petroleum distillate carrier oil offers exceptional particle mobility, excellent suspension stability, and enhanced corrosion protection, ensuring reliable and compliant mag particle inspections.

Formulated with highly refined petroleum oil, Carrier II features virtually no odor, improving operator comfort while maintaining a high flash point and low toxicity to minimize environmental, health, and safety (EHS) concerns.

Benefits

Faster, more reliable inspections

  • Increases inspection speed and reliability by quickly wetting the entire test surface.
  • Facilitates rapid movement of 14A particles towards discontinuities.

Decreases maintenance

  • Prolongs magnetic particle bath life due to slow evaporation and reduced contamination risks.
  • Protects magnetic particles from wear, ensuring even dispersion throughout the bath.

Improves operator comfort

  • Highly refined oil minimizes skin irritations and eliminates strong odors for a better work environment.

More inspection flexibility

  • Compatible with virtually all magnetic particle inspections and conforms to major international testing specifications.
  • Prevents corrosion of most alloys, eliminating the need for post-inspection processing for corrosion protection.

Safer to use

  • High flash point and low toxicity reduce EHS concerns, making it safe for use in inspection lines.

Increases equipment life-span

  • Protects magnetic particle equipment from internal rust and corrosion, extending machine life and minimizing downtime.

PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Fill tank or container to proper level with Carrier II.

2. Weigh out the appropriate amount of magnetic particles and add to the tank or container.

3. Mix for a minimum of 15 minutes, until the particles are completely and evenly dispersed in the suspension.

4. Check concentration before use.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Use Carrier II magnetic particle suspensions with appropriate magnetization procedure and equipment. For best results, all components, parts, or areas to be tested should be clean and dry prior to testing to provide an optimal test surface and reduce particle suspension contamination. Particle suspension must be properly mixed and continuously agitated when in use to ensure uniformity and concentration.

The suspension can be applied by gently spraying or flooding the area to be tested using the continuous or residual application method. Check particle concentration before use.

Maintenance Recommendations

Magnetic particle suspensions need to be properly maintained to provide consistent results. Suspension concentration and contamination should be monitored at least once a day, or according to applicable specifications. Contaminated suspensions, or those in use for an extended length of time, should be replaced. Properly cleaning all components, parts, or inspection areas before testing helps to significantly reduce particle suspension contamination. Particle concentration should be determined after initial bath preparation and at least once a day, or according to applicable specifications, to maintain the proper level of particles in the suspension. The most widely used method of control is by settling volume measurement in a graduated ASTM pear-shaped centrifuge tube.

REMOVAL

All components, parts, or inspection areas must be properly demagnetized before cleaning to ensure easy particle removal. Cleaned parts may be treated with a temporary film protective coating if longer corrosion protection is required.

STORAGE

Store in a well-ventilated area. Protect from sunlight. Refer to Safety Data Sheet for additional storage instructions.
