PAUT & TOFD Level III

[Mostafa Kamel Hussein]

Dear Sir,

Kindly clarify if  there is level III in PAUT&TOFD or not. our client insists for level III in PAUT&TOFD for PAUT procedure review and level II in PAUT&TOFD to carry out the work. i searched many but i found NO body has this certificates. are these certificates true? and how can i get it?

Hi Mostafa,

 

These techniques are very specialized techniques. Not all NDE techs are up to speed with both of these techniques. Please see some guidelines from the BINDT on the same.

 

I’m not sure , where you’re located, you may check with the local high profile NDE Schools or Companies, who’ll have those personnel in their team

 

Thanks.

Hi,

PAUT, TOFD, etc are the techniques of UT method. If you have a Level III in UT, you may go for additional training for these techniques and be a so-called specialist. But mere training and certification may not make you competent, so to say to do justice to the job. You will master these techniques only by on the job experience by lot of practice on different types of test specimens.  

As such there is no specific Level III in this technique, but a UT Level III is qualified to write / review these procedures and a well experienced Level II individual can do the actual job. If required, the client may test him on a mock up test piece. This is the industry practice.

 

BR,

As I understand PAUT & TOFD are NDE UT technics and not NDE methods. Hence NDE Level III in UT is required with training in special technics.
