YC-2 | 400 meshNY-20 | 500 meshFluorescent inspectionWater or oil based

Product Introduction

Fluorescent magnetic particle is an inspection material for ferromagnetic materials. After a workpiece is magnetized, leakage fields form around surface or near-surface defects. Magnetic particles in the suspension gather at these leakage fields and form clear fluorescent indications under long-wave ultraviolet illumination.

This series includes YC-2 and NY-20. The two models differ in particle fineness, suspension concentration, carrier liquid and preparation method. Select the product according to the inspection process.

Before inspection, comprehensive sensitivity must be verified with an A-type sensitivity test piece, magnetic-field indicator or another applicable test piece or test block.

Water Suspension Preparation

1Measure the powder

Measure the powder accurately according to the model, carrier volume and recommended concentration.

2Pre-wet the powder

Add the powder to dispersant or a small amount of water so it becomes fully wetted.

3Make a paste

Mix thoroughly until a uniform paste without obvious dry clumps is formed.

4Dilute and circulate

Add water slowly, then start agitation and spray circulation after adding the mixture to the tank.

YC-2 Water Suspension

  1. Measure 1 to 3 g of YC-2 fluorescent powder per liter of water.
  2. Add the measured powder to YF-1 dispersant.
  3. Wet all powder and mix into a uniform paste.
  4. Add the required water slowly while mixing.
  5. Mix thoroughly and add the suspension to the inspection machine tank.

NY-20 Water Suspension

  1. Measure 5 to 8 g of NY-20 fluorescent powder per liter of water.
  2. Add the powder to a small amount of water and mix into a uniform paste.
  3. Add a small amount of water for dilution and continue mixing.

  6. Pour the diluted suspension into the inspection machine tank.
  7. Add the remaining carrier and start equipment agitation and spray circulation.
Never use aviation kerosene for fluorescent magnetic-particle inspection. Select a suitable inspection carrier for oil-based suspension and follow laboratory fire-prevention and safety procedures.

Magnetic Suspension and Inspection Process

1. Clean the inspection equipment

Check the tank, pipes and suspension paths for foreign matter. Start agitation and spray circulation and inspect the returning water or oil. Clean the system immediately if contamination is present.

2. Prepare the suspension

Prepare the suspension at the recommended concentration for YC-2 or NY-20. First make a paste with a small amount of carrier, then dilute it gradually and add it to the equipment tank.

3. Circulate and disperse

Start agitation and spray circulation so the particles remain uniformly dispersed. Maintain suitable circulation throughout the inspection.

4. Magnetize the workpiece

Select the magnetization method, field direction and magnetizing current according to the material, dimensions, shape, surface condition, defect direction, inspection method and effective inspection area.

5. Verify comprehensive sensitivity

Place an A-type test piece closely against the workpiece surface with the grooved side facing the workpiece. Do not cover the grooves with adhesive. Continue inspection only when the circular and cross indications are clearly visible.

6. Observe under ultraviolet light

Observe fluorescent particles under long-wave ultraviolet illumination that meets the inspection requirements. Warm up the ultraviolet lamp and wait for stable output before inspection.

Maintenance and Precautions

  • YC-2 and NY-20 have different recommended concentrations. Do not interchange their preparation parameters.
  • NY-20 is for water suspension only and must not be used in oil suspension.
  • YF-1 dispersant is recommended for YC-2 water suspension.
  • FM-3 inspection carrier can be used for YC-2 oil suspension.
  • Fully wet the powder and make a paste before gradually adding the carrier liquid.
  • Excessively low concentration may reduce the detection capability for small defects.
  • Excessively high concentration may increase background and reduce indication clarity.
  • Keep the inspection tank, pipes and spray system clean.
  • Verify sensitivity with an A-type test piece or another suitable test block before formal inspection.
  • When using ultraviolet equipment, protect eyes and skin according to laboratory safety procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I choose between YC-2 and NY-20?

Choose YC-2 when water-based or oil-based suspension is required. NY-20 is a 500-mesh product for water suspension only and requires no additional additive.

How is a YC-2 water suspension prepared?

Wet the powder with YF-1 dispersant, mix it into a paste, gradually add the required water and mix thoroughly.

How is a YC-2 oil suspension prepared?

Mix the powder into a paste with a small amount of FM-3 inspection carrier, then add the remaining carrier and mix thoroughly.

Can NY-20 be used in oil suspension?

No. NY-20 is intended for water suspension only.

Is a higher suspension concentration always better?

No. A concentration that is too low may miss small defects, while a concentration that is too high may increase background and reduce the clarity of defect indications.

Why is an A-type test piece required before inspection?

It verifies the combined sensitivity of the magnetic powder, suspension, magnetizing equipment and inspection process before formal inspection begins.
