BS EN ISO 15548-3:2008

This standard BS EN ISO 15548-3:2008 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 system and provides methods for their measurement and verification.

The evaluation of these characteristics permits a well-defined description and comparability of an 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 does not give the extent of verification nor acceptance criteria for the characteristics. These are given in the application documents.
