1. QUALIFICATION OF RADIOGRAPHY PERSONNEL
Radiography wiil be performed under the jurisdiction of BARC Site-in-charge & ASNT level
As a Minimum all personnel conducting radiographic examination shall be certified, BARC RTLevel | & Level ll/ ASNT Level | & Level ll. All qualification certificates shall be valid
Only a BARC Site-in-charge or ASNT Level ll Personnel shall carry out interpretations ofradiographs.
2. SCOPE
This procedure established the requirements of Radiographic examinations of 10,000 MTAmmonia Storage Tanks as follows
Outer Tank - 19.6 Mts. with Max. Shell Thk. 16 N,'lt\4 & Min. 6.4 MMInner Tank - 18.6 Mts. wi th Max. Shel l Thk. 13.9 MNI & N4in. 6 .4 1,4N4
TEST REQUIREMENT: As per approved QAP and Drawings
3. SURFACE CONDITION
The Weld and adjacent areas shall be free of arc strikes, spatter and debris.
The Weld surface should be such that the weld ripples or any irregularities on both sides of thecomponent to such degrees that the resulting radiographic lmage or any flaws / discontinuityshould not be masked or be confused with the surface indications.
4. SOURCE AND FILM TYPE
Radiat ion Source : lR lDlUM - 192 - maximum source s ize 2.smm x 3mm
Film Type :Afga - D4 (Speed : Slow, Contrast : Very High, Graininess : Ultra fine
5. SCREEN
The Lead screen will be use for Gamma Radiations normally 0.125 mm for fronts screen and0. l5mmfor thebackscreens. Al l screens wi l l be of the casset te- loaded tvoe.
6. RADIOGRAPHICTECHNIOUE
Technique for the radiographic shall be as illustrated in the Mandatory Appendix of article 2,ASME APV Code Section V.
A Single Wal l Exposure Technique shal l be use for Radiography.
For Single Wal l S ingle lmage Technique (SWSI) min imum Source to F i lm Distance (SFD)should be 10" for Single exposure.

7. EXPOSURE TIME CALCULATIONS
This is based on base material thickness, source to film drstance and source strength.
8. DENSITY LIMITAIONS
The Film Density through the area of interest of the radiographic image shall be followedDensi ty Min. 2.5 to Max.3.8 H & D measured on Parent meta l image.Min. 2.0 to Max.3.5 H & D measured on the weld image.
9. RADIOGRAPHICSENSITIVITY
2% or better Film Sensitivity shall be required for radiography of Tanks.
Calculations of Sensitivity
Diameter of thinnest wire visible on radioqraph X 100Penetrated thickness at area of interest.
10. TYPE / DESIGN OF PENETRAMETERS (IMAGE QUALITY INDICATOR)
Minimum one penetrameter shall be used for each radiograph. Penetrameter shall be of similarmater ia l to that mater ia l be ing radio graphed.
DIN 54109 (1962) wire type penetrameter shall be used to indicate radiographic sensitivity.These penetrameter are three sizes of indicators, each containing seven equal distancesparallel wires of various thickness in geometrical progression.

D = Dist. from the source of radiation to the weld or object being radiographed.d = Dist. from source side of weld or object being radiographed to the film.
12. BACK SCATTER RADIATION
Backscatter radiation falling on the film should be avoided. To determine the amount of backscattered radiation. A lead number'B'of minimum %" heighI and '116" thick shall be attached tothe back of the film holder. lf a white image of 'B' appears on the darker background of theparagraphs. lt means that the protection from backscatter is insufficient and radiograph shallbe considered unacceptable. However a dark image of letter 'B' on the laghter background isnot the cause of rejection.
13. PROCESSTNG
. Processing will be a manual.
. Development time of 3-5 minutes in developer solution at 20 degree temperature withintermittent agitation, agitation being constant for the first 30 seconds manually.
. Following development acetic acid (stop bath) for 30 second to 1 minute withagitation for the first 20 seconds.
. Film to be fixed for at least twice the development time or 4 minutes whichever is thegrearer Dy manuaIy.
. Washing wi l l be for at least 12-15 minutes in running water in manual ly .
. Radiograph will be 1 minute in waiting agent bath with agitations after 40 seconds.
. F i lm shal l be dra ined at least t hour .
14, IDENTIFICATION
Single exposure shal l conta in a l l the deta i ls ment ioned bel low wi th lead, Numberscorresponding to Jo int , X-ray No. , Welder No. , Job No. Por t ion No. Date, Repair or Retakemarks and proper type of penetrameter.

R.8.2.1 API 620 Appendix-R (Tenth Edit ion, Addendum 1, June 2004) Art ic le 10of ASME Section V.
Qualification of Personnel
Personnel conducting Vacuum Box Test shall have sufficient experience toconduct this type of test.The test will be performed under the supervision of qualified supervisor.
Equipments
Vacuum Box (metal test ing box 150 mm x 750 mm with glass window in the top),Hoses, vacuum pump, valves, sui table vacuum gauge, seal ing mater ials, ( i .e.clay / flour paste / putty, sponge rubber gasket, hand lamps)
Surface Preparation
In general satisfactory results are obtained when the surface of the weld isproperly cleaned. Prior to vacuum box test the surface to be examined and alladjacent areas within at least 1 inch shall be dry and free of all dirt, grease, lintscale, welding flux spatter and other extraneous matter that could obscureopenings or otherwise interfere with the examination. The surface temperatureshall be 4"C to 52"C through the examination
Method
After cleaning of weld joint approximately 750 mm of the lap joint under tesl isbrushed with the soap solution or linseed oil. The vacuum box is placed over thecoated section of the lap joint. Open bottom of vacuum box is sealed againstplate surface by sponge rubber gasket. Vacuum box is connected to vacuumpump through valves, hose and vacuum gauge and then vacuum is appl ied to thebox. lf the required vacuum is not achieved due to improper sealing / defectivesponge rubber gasket i uneven surface clay / flour paste, putty will be used toseal the vacuum box with plate surface. The presence of any leakage or porosityin the lap weld jo int is indicated by bubbles or foam produced by air suckedthrough the welded lap jo int . Sui table & cal ibrated vacuum gauge shal l beprovided. An overlap of 2 inch minimum for adjacent placement of the vacuumbox shal l be used for each subsequent examinat ion.

Removal of Excess Penetrant
After the required penetratron dwell time, the penertant remaining on the surfaceshall be removed by wipes of clean, lint free cloth, repeating the operation untilmost traces of penetrant have been removed. Then lightly moistened solvent clothwill be used to wipe until all remaining traces of excess penetrant is removed.
On removal of all excess penetrant, drying shall be accomplished by normalevaporal ion. Minimum time for drying shal l be one minule.
6.4 DeveloperAppl icat ion

The non-aqueousdeveloper evaporates rapidly at room temperature. ParVareas shall be sprayed ina manner so as to have complete coverage within a thin even film developer.
Developer dwell time shall not be less than seven minutes.
Inspect ion
Inspection of test surfaces will be performed after the development time to assure properbleed out of penetrant from discontinuities on to the developer coating. To aid inevaluation the observation shall commence with the application of developer.
Acceptance
Discont inui ty wi l l be accepted as per ASME sec Vl l l Div .1 App-8.
Defect Rectification & Re-examination
lf any discontinuity observed during LPI inlerpretation, the same shall be removed byfurther grinding and then re-examination will be conducted with LPI
Post Cleaning
Post cleaning is necessary in cases where residual penetrale or developer could interferewith subsequent processing or service requirements. A suitable technique such as asimple water r inse or solvent c leaning may be employed.
