铜铸件表面缺陷检测首选取色渗透(PT):喷渗透剂停留 5–10 min、清洗后显像 10–30 min,在 ≥1000 lx 白光下判读,执行 ASTM E165/E1417。气密件(阀体、管接头)充 0.4–0.6 MPa 氮气浸水检漏,要求更高时用氦质谱检漏(灵敏度 10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s 级)。注意连通性缩松会缓慢渗漏,须保压 15–30 min 才能暴露;内部缺陷则 X 光按 ASTM E272 评级。验收等级必须写进图纸(注明 ASTM 或 ISO 级别),否则检验争议无据可依。

For copper castings, surface inspection starts with dye penetrant: dwell 5–10 min, develop 10–30 min after cleaning, and read under white light of 1000 lx or more per ASTM E165/E1417. Pressure parts (valves, fittings) get 0.4–0.6 MPa nitrogen with underwater bubble testing, upgraded to helium mass-spectrometer leak detection (10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s class) for tighter specs. Interconnected porosity weeps slowly — hold pressure 15–30 min to expose it — while internal defects are radiographically graded to ASTM E272. Acceptance levels must be stated on the drawing (ASTM or ISO grade); otherwise inspection disputes have no baseline.
