BS EN ISO 15548-1:2013

This standard BS EN ISO 15548-1:2013 Non-destructive testing. Equipment for eddy current examination is classified in these ICS categories:

• 19.100 Non-destructive testing

This part of ISO 15548 identifies the functional characteristics of a general-purpose eddy current instrument and provides methods for their measurement and verification.

The evaluation of these characteristics permits a well-defined description and comparability of eddy current equipment.

By careful choice of the characteristics, a consistent and effective eddy current examination system can be designed for a specific application.

Where accessories are used, these are characterised using the principles of this part of ISO 15548.

This part of ISO 15548 gives neither the extent of verification nor acceptance criteria for the characteristics. They are given in the application documents.
