Screen Height Linearity - Asme V

This document provides testing requirements for ultrasonic instrument screen height linearity and amplitude control linearity. It involves using angle beam search units on calibration blocks to produce indications of different amplitudes. For screen height linearity, the smaller indication should be 50% of the larger one within 5% as the gain is adjusted. For amplitude control linearity, the gain is adjusted and the indication should fall within specified percentage limits of the full screen height.

SCREEN HEIGHT LINEARITY

SCOPE

(FSH). Without moving the search unit, adjust sensitivity


(gain) to successively set the larger indication from
100% to 20% of full screen height, in 10% increments
(or 2 dB steps if a fine control is not available), and read
the smaller indication at each setting. The reading shall
be 50% of the larger amplitude, within 5% of FSH. The settings and readings shall be estimated to the nearest 1% of
full screen. Alternatively, a straight beam search unit may
be used on any calibration block that provides amplitude
differences, with sufficient signal separation to prevent
overlapping of the two signals.

This Mandatory Appendix provides requirements for


checking screen height linearity and is applicable to ultrasonic instruments with A-scan displays.

I-440

MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS

Position an angle beam search unit on a calibration


block, as shown in Figure I-440 so that indications from
both the 1/2 and 3/4T holes give a 2:1 ratio of amplitudes between the two indications. Adjust the sensitivity (gain) so
that the larger indication is set at 80% of full screen height

SCOPE

Alternatively, any other convenient reflector from any calibration block may be used with angle or straight beam
search units.

MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS

Position an angle beam search unit on a basic calibration block, as shown in Figure I-440 so that the indication
from the 1/2T side-drilled hole is peaked on the screen. Adjust the sensitivity (gain) as shown in the following table.
The indication shall fall within the specified limits.
