Non-destructive testing — Characterization and verification of ultrasonic phased array equipment — Part 2: Probes
ISO 18563-2:2017 specifies the characterization tests performed at the end of the fabrication of a phased array probe. It defines both methodology and acceptance criteria.
ISO 18563-2:2017 is applicable to the following phased array probes used for ultrasonic non-destructive testing in contact technique (with or without a wedge) or in immersion technique, with centre frequencies in the range 0,5 MHz to 10 MHz:
a) non-matrix array probes:
- - linear;
- - encircling;
- - partial annular sectorial (type "daisy");
b) 2D-matrix array probes.
ISO 18563-2:2017 does not give methods and acceptance criteria to characterize the performance of an ultrasonic phased array instrument or the performance of a combined system. These are given in ISO 18563?1 and in ISO 18563?3.

Frequently Asked Questions about ISO 18563-2:2017
When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
Standardization thrives on expertise and participation. Anyone interested can play an active role in its further development – for example, by joining the relevant committee or a working group. In this way, you can help shape the content and contribute to advancing the state of the art.
If you have an extensive portfolio of standards, we recommend using a professional standards management tool. With effects 2.0, you can manage your standards centrally and efficiently. You can optimise your procurement processes and benefit from an integrated information and subscription service. This ensures you are always up to date and never miss any relevant developments.
