FLUXO 6

Inspection : The part is subjected to an intense magnetic flux, which is deviated by the presence of a
defect. This escape attracts the particles of the product and the defects now are clearly
visible as fluorescent lines.
Components are magnetised and FLUXO 6 is applied to the test area, normally by
spraying immediately prior to and during magnetisation. Application of FLUXO 6 should
cease before the magnetisation is switched off. Defects will show up as well defined
fluorescent indications and inspection should take place in good UV Light of at least 1500
μW/cm².
Use : This Magnetic particle examination is used for the detection of emerging defects in all
ferromagnetic materials. Applicability: Aeronautics, Automobile, Railway, etc…
Composition : FLUXO 6: Fluorescent magnetic powder and high flash point petroleum.

magnetic particle inspection products, in particular on the following points:
 Performance: 70mm in reference block type 2
 Aspect & colour: red suspension
 Flash Point : > 80°C
 Particles size: D50% between 3 and 7 μm D10%>1,5 μm – D90%<40 μm
 Fluorescence coefficient: ß ≈ 2,5 cd.W-1
 Corrosion test: level 0 (according standard ISO 9934-2)

 Settlement rate (1 hour) : min 0,1 ml/100 ml
: In order to test the evolution of the performances of detection of the FLUXO 6 in time,
you can proceed with the reference block type 2, according to the method described in the
standard ISO 9934-2 (standard part reference 2).
The length of signature has to be compared with the value measured on the new product; it
should not be lower than 25 mm for the two right and left sides.
