Anodic protection acid coolers are critical equipment widely used in the sulfuric acid production and other chemical industries, mainly responsible for cooling concentrated sulfuric acid and other corrosive media. Due to their long-term operation under harsh conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and strong corrosion, the integrity and safety of anodic protection acid coolers are directly related to the stability of the entire production process and the safety of personnel and equipment. Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is an essential technical means to ensure the manufacturing quality, in-service safety, and extend the service life of anodic protection acid coolers, which can detect defects such as cracks, corrosion, and welding flaws without damaging the equipment structure. In China, the NDT work of anodic protection acid coolers must strictly comply with relevant national energy industry standards, among which the NB/T 47013 series standards and NB/T 47045-2015 are the core guidelines.The NB/T 47013 series standards, titled "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments", are a set of comprehensive and systematic standards that regulate various NDT methods for pressure equipment, including anodic protection acid coolers. Specifically, each part involved in the testing of anodic protection acid coolers undertakes distinct and important roles:NB/T 47013.1-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 1: General Requirements" specifies the general requirements and application principles of all NDT methods involved in this standard series, including radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing, and others. It serves as the fundamental guideline for the entire NDT process of anodic protection acid coolers, covering the basic requirements for testing personnel, equipment, materials, testing procedures, and result evaluation, ensuring the standardization and uniformity of the NDT work.NB/T 47013.2-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 2: Radiographic Testing" regulates the technical requirements, testing procedures, and result evaluation methods of radiographic testing (RT) for pressure equipment. For anodic protection acid coolers, this standard is mainly used to detect internal discontinuities such as welding defects, internal cracks, and voids in the shell, tube sheet, and heat exchange tube components, providing clear criteria for judging the quality of internal structures.NB/T 47013.3-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 3: Ultrasonic Testing" specifies the technical details of ultrasonic testing (UT) for pressure equipment. UT is widely used in the thickness measurement of the shell and heat exchange tubes of anodic protection acid coolers, as well as the detection of internal and surface-subsurface cracks, corrosion pits, and welding defects. It has the advantages of high detection efficiency, high sensitivity, and no radiation pollution, and is one of the most commonly used NDT methods in the inspection of anodic protection acid coolers.NB/T 47013.4-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 4: Magnetic Particle Testing" focuses on magnetic particle testing (MT) technology. It is mainly used to detect surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic components of anodic protection acid coolers, such as surface cracks, welding seams, and fatigue cracks caused by long-term operation. By magnetizing the component and applying ferromagnetic particles, defects can be clearly displayed, which is crucial for ensuring the surface integrity of the equipment.NB/T 47013.5-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 5: Penetrant Testing" regulates penetrant testing (PT) methods. PT is suitable for detecting surface open defects (such as surface cracks, pores, and gaps) in non-ferromagnetic and ferromagnetic components of anodic protection acid coolers, especially for components with complex shapes that are difficult to detect by MT. It has the characteristics of simple operation, low cost, and wide applicability, and is often used as a supplementary method for surface defect detection.NB/T 47013.6-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 6: Eddy Current Testing" specifies eddy current testing (ET) technology. ET is mainly used to detect surface and near-surface defects in conductive components of anodic protection acid coolers, such as heat exchange tubes and connecting pipes. It is particularly suitable for the rapid inspection of thin-walled components and can also be used to evaluate the thickness of the passivation film and the degree of surface corrosion, which is closely related to the anodic protection effect of the equipment.NB/T 47013.10-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 10: Ultrasonic Time of Flight Diffraction Technique" regulates the ultrasonic time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) technique. This technique has high accuracy in detecting the height and size of internal cracks in thick-walled components of anodic protection acid coolers (such as the shell and tube sheet), and can provide more accurate defect size data, which is important for evaluating the safety level of the equipment and formulating maintenance plans.NB/T 47013.11-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 11: X-ray Digital Radioscopic Testing" focuses on X-ray digital radioscopic testing technology. Compared with traditional RT, this method has the advantages of fast imaging, high image resolution, and convenient data storage and analysis. It is suitable for the rapid detection of internal defects in key components of anodic protection acid coolers, improving the efficiency and accuracy of NDT work.NB/T 47013.12-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 12: Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing" specifies magnetic flux leakage testing (MFL) technology. MFL is mainly used to detect surface and near-surface corrosion, wear, and cracks in ferromagnetic components of anodic protection acid coolers, especially for the inspection of large-area components such as the shell. It has the characteristics of high detection efficiency and strong adaptability to harsh environments.NB/T 47013.13-2015 "Nondestructive Testing of Pressure Equipments -- Part 13: Pulsed Eddy Current Testing" regulates pulsed eddy current testing (PECT) technology. PECT has strong penetration ability and is suitable for detecting internal corrosion and thickness reduction of thick-walled components and components with coatings in anodic protection acid coolers. It can effectively detect defects that are difficult to find by traditional ET, providing a more comprehensive guarantee for the integrity of the equipment.In addition to the NB/T 47013 series standards, NB/T 47045-2015 "Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers" also plays an important guiding role in the NDT of anodic protection acid coolers. This standard specifies the technical requirements for the design, material, manufacturing, inspection, and acceptance of brazed plate heat exchangers, which are widely used as the core heat exchange components of anodic protection acid coolers. It clearly stipulates the NDT methods and acceptance criteria for brazed seams and key components of brazed plate heat exchangers, and references relevant parts of the NB/T 47013 series standards to ensure that the manufacturing and inspection of brazed plate acid coolers meet the safety and quality requirements. This standard is applicable to brazed plate heat exchangers (including anodic protection type) operating at a temperature of -196℃ to 225℃ and a pressure of -0.1MPa to 14MPa.In the actual NDT work of anodic protection acid coolers, it is necessary to select appropriate NDT methods according to the structure, material, operating conditions, and potential defect types of the equipment, and strictly implement the requirements of the above-mentioned standards. The combination of multiple NDT methods can achieve comprehensive and accurate detection of equipment defects, avoid missed detection and misjudgment. At the same time, the NDT results should be recorded and evaluated in accordance with the standards to provide a scientific basis for the quality evaluation, in-service monitoring, maintenance, and scrapping of anodic protection acid coolers. By strictly complying with these standards, the safety and reliability of anodic protection acid coolers can be effectively guaranteed, and the occurrence of equipment failures and safety accidents can be prevented, thus promoting the stable and efficient operation of the chemical industry and other related fields.Services: R&D Capabilities
