Defect location: Surface

Ideal for:

  • Field Testing
  • Difficult to reach areas
  • Spot, weld and in-service inspections

Defect examples:

  • Seams
  • Tears
  • Shrink cracks
  • Quenching cracks
  • Fatigue cracks

SPECIFICATION COMPLIANCE

  • ASME BPVC
  • ASTM E709
  • ASTM E1444
  • ASTM E3024
  • ISO 9934-3
  • MIL-STD-271

OPERATION

1. Attach power cord, making sure connection is secure. Connect the power supply to line power.

2. Position yoke legs at right angles to the direction of suspected discontinuities. Adjust legs as needed for best contact with surface.

3. Depress trigger to energize yoke. Apply magnetic particles to area between legs. While energized, blow off excess powder to reveal indications.

4. Evaluate indications for size, shape, and relevant locations.

5. Reposition yoke legs at 90-degrees to previous position and repeat steps 2-3 to reveal indications in all directions.

6. Demagnetize by slowly withdrawing yoke from surface, up to 18 in / 45 cm distance, while yoke is energized.

7. OPTIONAL YOKE LIGHT: To install, slide over the rear leg with LEDs facing in. Push up onto the housing until tabs are secured. Yoke light will automatically operate when yoke is energized. To remove, pull sides out and down to disengage tabs, then slide off. No tools are necessary for installation or removal.

MAINTENANCE

  • Use mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the yoke housing
  • Do not immerse any part of yoke in liquid
  • Legs may be detached at the joints for cleaning
  • Use a rust-preventative spray (LPS-3 or equivalent) on legs for lubrication
