X-RAY INSPECTION GENERAL
i. General
A. A radiographic inspection will show internal and external structural details. This inspection is
applicable for all types of parts and materials. It is a type of nondestructive test that lets you examine
the parts of the airframe structure that you cannot get access to or that you cannot examine with
other types of nondestructive tests.
B. In a radiographic inspection test, an X-ray beam passes through a part or an assembly to expose a
piece of radiographic film. Structural details of the part or assembly will show as differences in film
density after the film is processed. An operator must interpret the radiograph to find damage.
2. Safety
A. Obey all safety precautions. The X-rays used in this test are dangerous to the personnel who do
the test and to people around them. A good source of data about protection from radiation is the
National Bureau Of Standards Handbook 93, "Safety Standard For Non-Medical X-Ray And Sealed
Gamma-Ray Sources."
3. Symbols and Abbreviations

4. Procedures
A. Make sure that the surface of the part that will be radiographed is clean. If you must clean the part, refer
to the Model 208 Structural Repair Manual or to the Model 208 Maintenance Manual for instructions.
B. Make sure that the central beam of radiation stays at a 90-degree angle to the surface of the film.
C. Put the film as near to the surface of the material as possible.
PART 2 20100100 Page 1

MODEL 208
D. Keep the distance from the X-ray source to the film (the focal distance) sufficient to make a sharp
image on the film.
NOTE: The adjustments that are speci;;i in individual radiographic procedures in this manual are
guidelines to make good radiographs. It could be necessary to change the MA, time, and
KV settings to get the contrast, sensitivity, and density specified. This can be because of
differences in equipment, film, or method of processing. X-ray equipment is permitted if it
makes radiographs of the quality specified by this manual.
E. Use the lowest possible potential (kilovoltage) and the highest possible current (milliamperage) to get
correct sensitivity, contrast, and density.
NOTE: This manual gives the best densities for each inspection procedure. Densities lower than
1.5 and higher than 3.7 are not acceptable for proper film interpretation.
F. Be careful when you handle and store radiographic film that has not been developed. This will help
toprevent blemishes which can cause you to interpret radiographs incorrectly.
5. Test Equipment
A. The specified X-ray unit was used to make the X-ray inspection procedures in this manual. When you
use other equipment, it might be necessary to adjust the techniques in this manual.

ULTRASONIC INSPECTION
1. General
A. Ultrasonic inspection uses high frequency sound waves as a probing medium to get information about
the condition of materials. This method is good for the inspection of most materials for surface and
subsurface defects. At least one surface of the part must be accessible in the vicinity of the area to
be examined.
B. The inspection of airframe structure is done when the ultrasound is put into the part by a contacting
probe (transducer) and the reflections of this sound are picked up from within the part. The detected
ultrasonic reflections are electronically shown on an oscilloscope and interpreted for possible defect
indications. Accessory devices must give sufficient probe coupling to curved surfaces, or to change
the angle of the sound beam in the material or part under inspection.
C. In most of the ultrasonic inspection techniques prepared for this manual, information has been given
for the fabrication of an ultrasonic Reference Standard. The selection and use of reference standards
is very important for successful ultrasonic inspection of airplane components.
D. Before most inspections, the type and general location of defects that may occur are known. Therefore,
when Reference Standards with calibrated reflectors that are similar to the defects are used, an
established inspection procedure can prove their validity. If the inspection procedure can clearly sense
the artificial defect, then theoretically it should also sense natural defects.
2. Test Equipment
A. In thedevelopment of the Ultrasonic Inspection Techniques contained in this manual, this ultrasonic
unit used (unless otherwise in a list in the specific inspection technique). When
was substitute
equipment is used, it may be necessary to make adjustments to the techniques.

EDDY CURRENT BOLT HOLE TECHNIQUES GENERAL
i. Description
A. Eddy current inspection is good for the detection of surface or near-surface cracks in most metals. This
method is done when eddy currents are put into the part and then monitored for electrical changes of
the induced field. The field change is interpreted to find the type of defect. Eddy current inspection
can be used on airframe parts or assemblies where the inspection area is accessible to contact by the
eddy current probe. An important use of eddy current inspection is to find cracks caused by corrosion
and stress around fastener holes with the fasteners installed.
B. This section gives the general requirements for the use of the eddy current method to find defects
within holes. Use this section with specific instructions for the location of the inspection and the types
of discontinuities to be detected.
2. Personnel Requirements
A. Personnel certification requirements are found in Part 1 of this manual.
3. Instrument Requirements: Bolt Hole Inspection

A. Instrument Sensitivity
(1) Some inspection techniques require the use of instruments that show both phase and amplitude
information on a storage cathode ray tube for impedance plane analysis. Impedance plane
instruments can be used in place of metered instruments. Metered instruments must not be
used in place of impedance plane instruments where the ability to distinguish phase information
is necessary.
(2) The instrument must have a repeatable signal response that has a signal-to-noise ratio of greater
than 3 to 1 for the test in which it is to be used. Impedance plane instruments must be able to
resolve the signal within the guidelines shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2.

basis.
8, Probe Sensitivity.
(1) The probe can have an absolute or differential coil arrangement.
(2) The probe can be shielded or unshielded. A shielded probe is usually recommended.
(3) The probe must have an operating frequency that gives the required test sensitivity and depth
of penetration,
(a) For a bolt hole inspection done on an aluminum part, the frequency must be 200 kHz.
(b) For a bolt hole inspection done on titanium, the frequency must be 1 MHz to 2 MHz.
(c) For a bolt hole inspection done on steel, the frequency must be 500 kHz to 800 kHz.
NOTE: The approximate frequencies must be used unless a different frequency is shown in
a specific procedure. The actual frequency used will depend on the ability of the test
systems (probe and instruments) to meet the required test sensitivity.
(4) Smaller coil diameters are better for the detection of cracks. A coil diameter of 1/8 inch is usually
used.
(5) For crack detection, the coil will usually contain a ferrite core.
(6) The probe must not give interference responses caused by pressure of use, probe movement,
or normal operating pressure variations on the sense coil which cause the signal-to-noise ratio
to be less than 3 to 1.
(7) Teflon tape can be used to decrease the wear on the eddy current probe coil. When Teflon tape
is used, a new instrument calibration must be done.
4. Instrument Calibration Standards
A. Nonferrous reference standards must be of an alloy that has the same major base metal, basic temper,
and the approximate electrical conductivity as the material to be inspected.
B, Reference standards must have a minimum surface finish of 150 RHR or RMS 165.
C. The dimensional accuracy of EDM notches must be documented and traceable to the National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST),
PART 6 20-00-01 Page 2

MODEL 208
D. In some specially fabricated reference standard will be necessary to simulate a part’s

cases a
geometry, configuration, and/or the specific discontinuity location. Artificial discontinuities can be
used in the reference standard.
5. Inspection Considerations
A. Temperature: Inspections must not be done until the temperature of the probe, the standard, and the
material are equal.
B. Surface Condition:
(1) Finish: The surface finish of the area to be tested must be 150 RHR or RMS 165 or smoother.
(2) Cleanliness: The test area must be free of dirt, grease, oil, or other contaminants.
(3) Probe Contact: Eddy current inspection must be done with good contact made between the
probe and the part unless a specific procedure requires an offset. Lightly corroded parts must
be cleaned lightly with emery cloth. Severely corroded or painted parts must be lightly abraded
and cleaned locally in the area on which the probe will be put.
6. Instrument Calibration
A. The instrument must be calibrated and operated in accordance with this technique and the
manufacturer’s instructions.
B. Instrument calibration must be done before inspection. Calibration must be checked at intervals
as necessary to maintain calibration during continuous use and at the end of the inspection. The
instrument must be calibrated again if any part of the system is replaced or if any calibrated control
settings are changed.
C. A 0.050 inch x 0.050 inch corner notch must be used for calibration unless another dimension is given
in the procedure. A typical eddy current bolt hole reference standard with EDM notch depths of 0.050
inch x 0.050 inch is shown in Figure 3.

D. Adjust the instrument to get a minimum separation of three major screen divisions between the
null/balance point and the applicable reference notch. The signal from a differential probe must be
considered peak-to-peak.
E. Filters can be used to make the signal-to-noise ratio better.
7. Inspection
A. When the inspection procedure does not give the depths at which the scans are to be made, this
general procedure must be used:
(1) Select the appropriate probe and instrument.
(2) Put the probe into the hole and get an indication for the near edge of the hole.
(a) This is the point when the signal is 50 percent between the signal for an air condition and
the probe fully in the hole.
(b) Record the distance between the center of the probe coil and the edge of the probe guide.
PART 6 1 20100-01 Page 3

MODEL 208
(3) Move the probe through the hole until the signal shows that it is past the far edge of the hole.
(a) This is the point when the signal is 50 percent between the signal for an air condition and
the probe fully in the hole.
(b) Record the distance between the center of the probe coil and the edge of the probe guide.
(4) More than one layer can be found by slow movement of the probe through the hole. A layer
interface will look like a crack indication. The difference is that the interface will be seen through
360 degrees of the hole. Measure the distance between the center of the probe coil and the
edge of the probe guide when the signal from the interface is at its maximum.
(5) Do the inspection at a hole depth of 0.070 inch from either edge of the hole. Do the inspection
every 0.070 inch through the hole. If the hole has more than one layer, the inspection
requirements must be done on each layer.
8. Interpretation
A. If an indication is found, carefully repeat the inspection in the opposite direction of probe movement
to make sure of the indication. If the indication is found for left and right probe movement, carefully
monitor the amount of probe movement or turn needed to cause the instrument to move off from the
maximum indication.
B. When the eddy probe is centered over a crack, the signal will be at maximum and any
current
movement of the probe (exceeding 0.020 inch, or 2 degrees) will cause the signal to start to go
back to the original reading. Corrosion pits, foreign material, and out-of-round holes can cause an
instrument response for 20 to 30 degrees of bolt hole probe rotation before the indication starts to
go back to the original reading.
C. Unless specified differently, cracks are not allowed.
D. Find the end of a crack using the 50 percent method. Move the probe slowly across the end of the
crack until a point is found where the crack signal amplitude has been reduced by 50 percent. The
center of the probe coil at this point is the end of the crack.
9. Reporting Results
A. If theinspection procedure has not told you what to do damaged part, contact Cessna
with the
Propeller Aircraft Product Support, P.O. Box 7706, Wichita, KS 67277 USA.
Telephone 316-517-5800
Fax 316-942-9006. Include sufficient information in all written descriptions so that someone not
involved with the inspection can interpret the results. Give the following information:
(1) Location of the hole with the discontinuity.
(2) Depth of the discontinuity into the hole and, if applicable, the material layer.
(3) Discontinuity orientation relative to the hole.

EDDY CURRENT CONDUCTIVITY TESTING: ALUMINUM
1. Description
A. This is a general inspection procedure that is used to find the conductivity of aluminum structures by
use of the eddy current method. This procedure is to be used with the applicable material specification
and structural engineering drawings to find if the conductivity values are acceptable or unacceptabie.
B. Conductivity testing is an effective method for determining the material properties of aluminum
structures. Eddy currents are put into the part and the variations in the electrical field caused by
conductivity changes are observed. Indications are recorded and compared to acceptable ranges
for the materialtested. However, other materials or geometric changes in the area can influence the
conductivity indication of the instrument. Therefore, accurate determination of material properties
cannot be made based on conductivity without access to the appropriate material specification and
engineering drawings.
C. A field application is to determine material properties after heat has been applied.
typical Such
situations include: structure heated by an engine or APU, fire damage, and lightning strike.
3. Instrument Requirements: Conductivity Testing

A. Inspection Frequency: The instrument used must have an operating frequency of 60 kHz.
B. Instrument Accuracy: The instrument used must be an eddy current instrument capable of determining
the conductivity of aluminum alloys as a percentage of the International Annealed Copper Standard
IACS) with an accuracy of within 1.0% IACS or better through electrically nonconductive films and
coatings up to at least 0.003 inch (0.08 mm) thick.
C. Instrument Sensitivity: The instrument must have a sensitivity such that changes of at least 0.5%
IACS are clearly distinguishable over the conductivity range of the aluminum alloys under test.
D. Probe: The probe to measure conductivity must have a flat contact surface. The contact surface
diameter must not be greater than 0.500 inch (13 mm).
E. Test lift-off compensation as follows: put the probe on a bare standard, then put a 0.003 inch (0.08
mm) thick nonconductive flat shim between the probe and the standard. The difference in the two
readings must not exceed 0.5% IACS. If it does, return the instrument to the calibration laboratory for
repair and recertification.
F The functional performance of the conductivity instrument must be verified at the intervals required by
the controlling specification or the manufacturer’s recommendation, whichever is less.
4. Calibration Reference Standards
A. Each instrument must have a minimum of two aluminum alloy instrument conductivity standards that
are always kept with the instrument.
(1) One must have a value in the range of 25% to 32% IACS.
(2) One must have a value in the range of 38% to 62% IACS.
B. There must be a minimum spread of 10% IACS between the standard with the low range and the one
with the high range.
C. The instrument conductivity standards must be certified to be accurate within plus or minus 0.85%
IACS by the comparison method to the laboratory conductivity standards in accordance with ASTM
B193 procedure in a system per ISO 10012-1 ANSI/NCSL 2540-1.
D. Calibration must be made initially and at intervals such that they coincide with the conductivity
instrument recalibration cycle.
PART 6 20100-03 Page 1

MODEL 208
material are equal. The temperatures must stay equalized and constant throughout the test within
3"C (5.4"F) of each other.
B. Surface Condition
(1) Finish: The surface finish of the area to be tested must be 150 RHR or RMS 165 or finer.
(2) Cleanliness: The areas to be tested must be free of dirt, grease, oil, or other contaminants.
(3) Nonconductive Coatings: Conductivity measurements may be made through anodize, chemical
film, primer, paint, or other nonconductive coatings, if these coatings do not exceed 0.003 inch
(0.08 mm) thickness. Coatings with a thickness greater than this must be removed prior to
conductivity testing.
(4) Surface Curvature: On concave surfaces, a curvature radius of 10 inches (250 mm) or more is
required. On convex surfaces, a curvature radius of 3 inches (8 mm) or larger is required.
(a) A correction factor must be applied for smaller radii.
(5) Probe Contact Area: The surface of the part to which the conductivity measuring probe is applied
must be at least as large as the outside diameter of the probe. If the part dimension is very nearly
equal to the probe diameter, the probe must be centered on the part.
A. Calibration Reference Standards

(1) Each instrument must have a minimum of two aluminum alloy instrument conductivity standards
which must always be kept with the conductivity instrument. One standard must be in the range
of 25% to 32% IACS and one in the range of 38% to 62% IACS. There must be a minimum spread
of 10% IACS between the standard for the low range and the standard for the high range. The
instrument conductivity standards must be certified to be accurate within 0.85% IACS by the
comparison method to the laboratory conductivity standards in accordance with ASTM 8193
procedure in a system per ISO 10012-1 ANSI/NCSL 2540-1. Calibration must be made initially
and at intervals such that they coincide with the conductivity instrument recalibration cycle.
B. The instrument must be calibrated and operated as specified in this technique and the manufacturer’s
instructions.
C. Each time the conductivity instrument is used, it must be calibrated (standardized) using the
instrument conductivity standards before checks are made and rechecked at 15 minute intervals
during continuous operation. If the instrument is found to be out of calibration, all measurements
done since the last calibration must be rechecked.
A. Nonferrous reference standards must be of an alloy that has the same major base metal, basic temper
and the approximate electrical conductivity of the material to be inspected.
B. Reference standards must have a minimum surface finish of 150 RHR or RMS 165.
8. Inspection
A. The purpose of the inspection is to collect information to let the responsible engineering group
determine the material properties in the affected area.
NOTE: Because variations in materialproperties, material stacking, and geometry cause changes
of conductivity readings, conductivity readings alone must not be used to determine
if the affected area is accepted. Reference must be made to the applicable material
specifications and engineering drawings.
B. Visual
(1) Clean the area to be examined with methods specified in the appropriate maintenance manual.
Remove all dirt, grit, soot, and other debris that will not let the probe maintain good contact with
the structure.
PART 6 20-00-03 Page 2

MODEL 208
(2) Examine the area visually for indications of possible heat damage. Some signs include paint/
metal discoloration and bubbled or peeled paint.
(3) Record the location and description of the heat damaged area. This description will be used
along with the conductivity readings to determine the type of repair. if photographs are used to
describe the area, take the picture before the conductivity test is done.
C. Eddy Current Conductivity

(1) Use the appropriate reference standards to make sure of proper instrument calibration within
the general conductivity range of aluminum structures
(2) After the visual inspection, set a reference point. If there is visual evidence of possible heat
damage, set the reference point at the center of the area that appears to have been the most
affected. If there is no visual evidence of possible heat damage, set the reference point at the
center of the area to be inspected. In either case, the reference point will locate approximately
the center of the area of interest.
NOTE: A detailed map will need to be made of the inspection area. It must include
dimensions to locate the reference point and enough information to let the
engineering personnel that do the review of the information locate the places the
conductivity readings were taken.
(3) The total area to be examined, and the distance between readings will depend on the specific
situation. It is recommended that the distance between conductivity readings not exceed 1 .0 inch
(25 mm). If the visual evidence or the conductivity readings suggest rapid changes in severity,
decrease the distance between test points. It is recommended that the total area to be examined
exceed the area of visual evidence by at least 2.0 inches (50 mm). If the conductivity readings
continue to change, the of examination should be expanded until readings remain fairly
area
constant to make sure a complete map ofthe area is prepared.
(4) Locate the reference point at the corner of a square, refer to Figure 1 Take conductivity readings
as you work away from the reference point in the increments and distance determined in the
previous step. Enough information must be recorded along with the conductivity reading to allow
a person not familiar with the inspection to locate the data point.
NOTE: Structural considerations may make it necessary that the test points do not follow the
pattern of Figure 1. It is up to the inspector to set a pattern that best covers the area
to be inspected.

Web: www.ndteng.com
5. Calibration

B. Calibrate the Spot Probe.
(2) Set the eddy current instrument frequency to 6 kHz, +1 or -1 kHz.
PART 6 157120102 Page 1

MODEL 208
(3) Put the probe on the standard away from the notch.
NOTE: The spar cap has two angles bonded to a center web. Be sure you use an area on
the standard that best matches the area of the airplane you are to inspect.

C. Alternate Calibration for the Spot Probe.
NOTE: There may be greater edge effect, compared to the reference standard, when you inspect
the area parallel to the edge of a spar cap. This can be caused if the distance between the
fasteners and the edge of the spar cap is smaller than on the reference standard. If edge
effect interference is noticed, use the alternate calibration.

(3) Measure the distance from the edge of the spar cap to the edge of the fastener on the airplane.
(4) Compare that measurement to the same one on the reference standard.
(5) If the edge distance on the airplane is shorter, move the probe the same difference away from
the fastener on the standard.
(a) If the airplane fastener has an edge distance of 0.35 inch (8.9 mm) and the standard has
an edge distance of 0.50 inch (12.7 mm), do the calibration on the test standard 0.15 inch
(3.8 mm) from the fastener.

(b) Use a nonmetallic straight edge to make sure the probe keeps the proper distance from
the fasteners on the standard.
NOTE: The spar cap consists of two angles bonded to a center web. Be sure you use an
area on the standard that best matches the area of the airplane you are to inspect.

(9) Move the probe over the appropriate notch. Monitor the display to make sure the signal moves
up and toward the left as the probe moves across the notch.
NOTE: You are looking for cracks between the fastener and the edge of the spar cap. Make
sure that the EDM cut on the standard is in the same relative position as the airplane
structure you are looking at.
6. Inspection
A. Bottom Forward Spar Cap (Refer to Figure 1).
(1) Make sure the instrument and probe are calibrated. Refer to Calibrate the 200 kHz Surface
Probe.
(2) Use the eddy current surface probe to inspect along the edges of the bottom spar cap at the
strut attach point between the ribs at WS 126.50 and WS 141.20.
(3) Do an inspection around the nut plate fasteners and holes located at the inboard end of the spar.

MODEL 208
PENETRANT INSPECTION -GENERAL
i. General
A. Visible
dye penetrants (Type 2) must not be used for inspections done to this airplane or its
components. The reason for this is that visible dye penetrants will penetrate very fine cracks, but
their sensitivity is so poor, they are easily missed and will not show an indication. The dye trapped in
these tight defects cannot be removed completely under even the best conditions. Removal under
field conditions is not possible. In-service inspections are usually reinspections of specific critical
areas. The possibility of dye build-up in defects that prevent the entrance of subsequently applied
penetrants cannot be permitted.
NOTE: If Type 2 penetrant (visible dye) was used for an inspection, penetrant is no longer an
approved inspection method for that part or area. Eddy current or another inspection
procedure must be used.
B. Penetrant inspection is used to find small cracks or discontinuities open to the surface that may not
be evident by a visual inspection. Penetrant inspection can be used on most airframe parts and
assemblies accessible for its application. A liquid that penetrates into surface defects is applied to
do the inspection. Excess penetrant liquid is removed and a suitable developer applied to draw the
penetrant from the surface defects. A visual indication is obtained by color contrast and fluorescence
of the penetrant under the display of a "black light." The penetrant method of inspection requires that
the surface in the inspection area be fully cleaned and free of paint.
2. Materials and Equipment

A. Because it gives high sensitivity and the ability to detect fatigue cracks open to the surface, the
portable fluorescent penetrant system is required when the maintenance manual specifies a penetrant
inspection of a specific area of the airframe structure.
B. Only materials approved on the most recent revision of QPL-AMS-2644 (Refer to SAE AMS-2644)
may be used for penetrant inspection.All materials must be from the same family group. Do not
interchange or mix penetrant cleaners, penetrant materials or developers of different manufacturers.
CAUTION: COMPONENTS INTENDED FOR USE IN LIQUID OXYGEN SYSTEMS

MUST BE TESTED WITH SPECIAL PENETRANTS DESIGNED AS LOX
USAGE PENETRANTS. THESE ARE COMPATIBLE WITH A LIQUID OXYGEN
ENVIRONMENT. REACTION BETWEEN A LIQUID OXYGEN ENVIRONMENT AND
NON-LIQUID OXYGEN USAGE PENETRANT CAN BE AN EXTREMELY VIOLENT
EXPLOSION AND FIRE.
C. Penetrant materials are defined by specific classifications per SAE AMS-2644 and must meet or
exceed the classification listed.
Type 1 (Fluorescent)
Level 3 (Sensitivity)
Method C (Solvent removable)
Form d (Nonaqueous Type 1 Fluorescent, Solvent Based)
Class 2 (Non-halogenated Solvent Removers)
3. Lighting Equ ipment/Environment

A. The penetrant must be done in a low light environment where the ambient white light
inspection
intensity is not than 2 fc (foot candles). In order for Type 1 penetrant materials to fluoresce,
more
they must be exposed to ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 320 to 380 nanometers.
PART 7 1
20-00100 Page 1
MODEL 208
WARNING: PERSONNEL MUST NOT WEAR LIGHT SENSITIVE (PHOTOCHROMIC)

LENSES DURING THE INTERPRETATION/EVALUATION OF PARTS.
(1) The black light must have a minimum light intensity of 1200 CIW/cm2 at the part surface or 1000
C1W/cm2 at a distance of 15 inches. Let the black light warm up for a minimum of 10 minutes
before use.
(2) Both the ultraviolet light and ambient light intensities must be measured with a calibrated light
meter before each inspection.
NOTE: It is recommended that the inspector allow 3 minutes for the eyes to adapt to the dark
before the interpretation/evaluation of parts.
4. Procedure
A. Surface Cleaning.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE HALOGENATED SOLVENTS ON TITANIUM OR HIGH NICKEL

ALLOY MATERIALS.
(1) The area to be inspected must be free from any dirt, grease, oil, paint, or any contaminants
which can mask or close a defect that is open to the surface. The surface must be dry before
the penetrant is applied.
(2) Thepenetrant materials and the area to be tested must have a temperature of 40"F minimum to
120"F maximum (4"C to 49"C).
B. Application of Penetrant.
(1) Apply the penetrant with a brush fully over the area to be examined. Let the penetrant stay
(dwell) on the area for a minimum of 15 minutes at temperatures of 51"F (11"C) and above, or
25 minutes for temperatures of 40"F to 50"F. (4"C to 10"C).
(2) The maximum dwell times must not exceed one hour unless it is specified to do so. If the
penetrant has dried on the surface, it must be fully removed and penetrant be applied again.
C. Removal of Excess Penetrant.
CAUTION: DO NOT FLUSH THE SURFACE WITH THE PENETRANT CLEANER OR

SATURATE THE CLOTH AS THIS CAN REMOVE THE PENETRANT FROM
SHALLOW DEFECTS.
(1) Wipe with a clean, dry lint free cloth to remove the excess penetrant from the surface. Remove
the penetrant that remains with a clean lint free cloth, dampened with the penetrant cleaner.
Examine the inspection area under the black light to make sure all surface penetrant has been
removed.
D. Application of Developer.
(1) Use a very thin coating of developer to get the best results. The essential step of application
of developeris to get the minimum thickness possible. The film of developer must be slightly
translucent, that is, the color of the part or area must be barely seen through the film of developer.
Shake nonaqueous developers frequently to prevent settling of the solid particles in the liquid
vehicle.
(a) When you apply the dry powder developer, thoroughly dust the part or area.
1 Gently blow off the excess powder.

2 The dwell time must be a minimum of 10 minutes and a maximum of 4 hours.
(b) When you apply nonaqueous wet developer from pressurized containers, spray a thin layer
on the surface and let it dry in ambient air. The dwell time must be a minimum of 15 minutes
and a maximum of 1 hour.
E. Interpretation of Indications.
(1) An 8X magnifying glass must be used to examine the area unless the indications are seen by
the naked eye.
(a) Any surface break will be shown by the fluorescent indication on a bluish background.
PART 7 20-00100 Page 2

MODEL 208
(b) A crack will show as a fluorescent line. It will be sharply indicated at first.
(c) Watch indications grow, because the first sharp indications tell much of the nature of the
defect, and the amount of bleeding gives information as to its extent.
(d) The amount of bleeding gives a clue to the depth of the crack.
(e) A deep discontinuity indication will reappear a number of times when the area is wiped
clean and developer applied again.

MAGNETIC PARTICLE INSPECTION
1. General
A. Magnetic particle inspection is a nondestructive procedure to find surface and near subsurface
discontinuities in parts made of magnetic materials. It has three basic operations.
(1) Put in an applicable magnetic field.
(2) Application of magnetic particles.
(3) Examination and evaluation of the way the particles are arranged.
B. Discontinuities can be in materials, be made during the process of fabrication of parts, or exist
raw
as fatigue cracks or cracks due to excessive service stresses. Discontinuities are defects if they are
dangerous to the function or service life of the parts. Magnetic particle inspection will easily find
discontinuities in ferromagnetic material to reveal manufacturing and/or service defects.
C. Alloys which contain a high percentage of iron and can be magnetized, make up a class of
metals called ferromagnetic. Magnetic particle inspection can find discontinuities in parts made of
ferromagnetic materials. If the part is made of material which is nonmagnetic, it cannot be inspected
by this method. The magnetic particle inspection method will find surface discontinuities that are
too fine to be seen without magnification and those that lie slightly below the surface. When special
equipment is used, the more deeply seated discontinuities can be found.
D. Electric current is used to cause magnetic fields in magnetic materials.
(1) The direction of the magnetic field can be altered, and is controlled by the direction of the current.
(a) The direction and location of the current paths are used to induce the magnetic lines of force
so that
they intercept and are as near as possible to a transverse direction to a discontinuity.
(b) Either longitudinal or circular fields can easily be set up.
(c) The strength of the field can be changed, and by use of different types of current, variations
in field strength and distribution can be made.
(2) There are two types of electric current used. These are direct current (DC) and alternating
current (AC).
(a) The type of current used for magnetization affects the strength, direction, and distribution
of the fields.
(b) It is very important for persons performing the inspection to understand the magnetizing
characteristics of these types of current and the various modifications in their use, for the
correct application of magnetic particle testing.
E. When a magnetic field within a part is interrupted by a discontinuity, some of the field is forced out into
the air above the discontinuity. This forms a leakage field.
(1) The closer the discontinuity is to the surface, the stronger and more concentrated the leakage
field will be.
(2) The presence of a discontinuity is located by the application of finely divided ferromagnetic
particles to the surface of the part.
(3) Some of the particles will be collected and held by the leakage field.
(4) The magnetically held collection of particles makes an outline of the discontinuity and shows its
location, size, and shape.
3. Test Equipment
CAUTION: CONTACT PRODS MUST NOT BE USED ON AVIATION COMPONENTS OR PARTS.
A. The specific magnetic particle equipment necessary to accomplish an inspection will be specified for
each procedure contained in this manual.
B. When parts are magnetized by the use of spring-loaded contact clamps to cause circular
magnetization, the contact clamps must not conduct more than 800 amperes.
PART 8 20-00-00 Page 1

MODEL 208
4. Quality Control Requirements

A. Light Meters
(1) All light meters must be calibrated by a procedure traceable to the National Institute of Standards
and Technology. Calibration must not exceed 6 months.
B. Black Light
(1) The black light used for inspection must produce a minimum intensity of 1000 micro watts per
square centimeter at the part surface.
(a) You must make sure of the black light intensity before you do the inspection.
(b) Use a light meter that meets the requirements of this section.
(2) You must check black light reflectors and filters prior to use to make sure they are clean and are
not damaged. Damaged or dirty reflectors and filters must be replaced or corrected immediately.
C. Ambient White Light.

(1) The ambient white light at the surface of the part must not exceed 2 foot candles.
(a) You must make sure of the ambient white light intensity before you do the inspection.
(b) Use a light meter that meets the requirements of this section.
