    Ultrasonic testing uses high frequency sound waves to detect flaws inside materials. The sound waves are introduced into the test part and echo back different signals if they hit imperfections. By measuring the time it takes for echoes to return, the location and size of defects can be determined. An ultrasonic testing certification exam is 4 hours long and covers 135 questions on topics like principles, equipment, testing techniques, interpreting results, application procedures, codes and safety. Key reference materials for the exam include the Level III Study Guide on Ultrasonic Testing and the NDT Handbook volume on the subject.

    Ultrasonic Testing Examinations

    About Ultrasonic Testing (UT)


    Ultrasonic testing uses the same principle as is used in naval SONAR and fish finders. Ultra­high frequency
    sound is introduced into the part being inspected and if the sound hits a material with a different acoustic
    impedance (density and acoustic velocity), some of the sound will reflect back to the sending unit and can
    be presented on a visual display. By knowing the speed of the sound through the part (the acoustic velocity)
    and the time required for the sound to return to the sending unit, the distance to the reflector (the indication
    with the different acoustic impedance) can be determined.
