IS 15468 : 2004 Performance Evaluation of Ultrasonic Thickness Gauges

1 Scope

1.1 This standard deals in with the procedures of evaluatingvarious parameters of ultrasonic thickness gauges that have directbearing on their performance.

1.2 This standard is applicable to all such instruments whichare meant solely for the measurement of thickness using principleof ultrasonics.

1.3 This standard does not cover ultrasonic flaw detectors whichcan also be used to measure the thickness. Such instruments arecovered by IS 12666 : 1990 `Methods for performance assessment ofultrasonic flaw detection equipment.
