    This document outlines the procedure for Positive Material Identification (PMI) using an X-ray Fluorescent (XRF) analyzer to identify alloy steel grades. It describes preparing the surface, calibrating and operating the Delta Professional Analyzer DPO 2000 XRF device, taking measurements, ensuring traceability of tested items, applying acceptance criteria based on material specifications, and reporting results. The procedure is intended to non-destructively measure elemental compositions for material verification.

    1. Introduction
     This procedure specifies the process of carrying out PMI for identification of grade
    of alloy steel materials using XRF analyzer.
    2. Scope
     To carry out Positive material identification using X-ray Fluorescent (XRF)
    technology. It is to measure the concentration of elements without causing any
    damage to the component being examined.
     Equipment used for doing PMI is Delta Professional Analyzer DPO 2000 having
    Sr.no.540915
    3. Reference documents
     User manual of Delta Family: Handheld XRF Analyzer DPO 2000
     Reference material part number 100039 standard coin is used to verify the
    performance of XRF Analyzer.
    4. Equipment
     The equipment used is XRF Analyzer DPO 2000 for verification of elements
    composition in various types of materials. The instrument is a fully portable
    analyzer with an integrated display to view spectra and save data.
     This equipment can measure the following elements
    5. Surface preparation
     The surface shall be free from oil, dirt, paint, scale etc. that affects the result.
    Usually a light grinding or power brush is sufficient in probe seating area if not
    bare metal.
    6. Testing procedure
     Instrument Calibration
     Prior to analysis, the Instrument shall be calibrated to a known standard
    reference and representative to the alloy type to be tested and confirmed.
    Various standard reference alloy composition is provided by the equipment
    manufacturer.
     Instrument Operation Turn
     “ON” the instrument
     Select Analyze on the Main Menu screen
     Input Data

    7. Measurements
     Place probe on the material / sample to be tested and press the trigger keeping
    the probe on the sample / material during the entire measurement.
     The measurement on the test / sample will indicate with the time and the elapsed
    measurement time on completion of the analyzing of the test item.
     The display will indicate the composition on each element in percentage with
    deviation and also the common alloy detected, i.e. 316/ 304/ etc. Measurements
    will be stored in the Instrument memory. Stored measurement data can be
    printed for evaluation and reporting.

    8. Traceability
     Item tested should be identified and indicated in test report.
    9. Acceptance criteria
     The minimum elements to be tested for each type of alloy shall be as per material
    reference specification.
     The element shall meet the requirement of applicable material specification to
    determine acceptance.
     Deviation allowed: AS per ASME 2011a SECTION I / ASME BPVC I.2015 B-8.2 &
    ASME BPVC B-8.4.1
    10. Reporting
     Standard inspection report format. See attached appendix I.
