If necessary, adjust the gain to achieve the detailed working spot deflection and the phase angle such that the lift off signal is horizontal and the calibration signal from the 0.2mm slot is vertical. See Figure 2. Make sure the sensitivity and phase relationship is as Figure 2 and adjust as necessary. (e) Check the response of the equipment by running the probe over the 0,6 mm depth circumferencial slot, and ensure the associated increase in amplitude. B. Procedure NOTE: The inspection procedure is to be carried out by NDT personnel who are certified to EN4179 level 2 (or equivalent - as agreed by the Messier-Dowty Ltd Nominated Level 3) in the Eddy Current method as detailed in Messier-Dowty Limited NDT10. (1) Place the probe on component, balance probe and check lift off. Ensure sensitivity and phase relationship is as Figure 2 and adjust as necessary. (2) To assist with scanning and coverage of t he inspection area, when possible create a 10mm x 10mm grid pattern over the complete repaired/test area and do a series of horizontal scans at 1mm increments with an overlap of grid lines ensuring 100% coverage of the scan area. Re-balance at each new grid square. When such a grid pattern cannot be achieved, do a series of vertical and horizontal scans at 1mm increments ensuring 100% coverage of the repaired/test area. (3) Repeat para 5.A.(2)(b), Para 5.A.(2)(c) and Para 5.A.(2)(d) using the 0,2mm depth of axial slot and Para 5.A(2)(e) using the 0,6 mm depth axial slot. (4) Repeat para 5.B(1) and 5.B(2) in the opposite direction at 90 Degrees to the direction of the initial scan. C. Examination standard (1) Any indication (regardless of amplitude) that cannot be attributed to edge effect, geometry, lift off or probe handling is to be considered a “relevant indication”. All indications are to be reported, showing their position and length. (2) The indication length is to be measured from a vertical spot movement of 1 main scale division while scanning towards the indication at 90 Degrees to the major dimension of the indication. D. Reporting procedure (1) All indications are to be reported showing indication position, l ength and direction. If possible equipment screen displays, showing both lift off signals and indication signals, should be obtained and included in the report.

APPENDIX C PROCEDURE FOR LOW EMBRITTLEMENT BR USH CADMIUM PLATING THE BOGIE BEAM 1. Scope A. Method of cadmium plating the bogie beam: refer to PCS-2141 and Messier-Dowty Standard Practices Manual 20-00-10. B. This appendix describes the materials and procedures for the local deposition of cadmium on steels of all strength levels and on non-ferrous alloys. C. The process is to be used to re-protect surfaces which have been reworked after damage during manufacture or in service, or to apply a supplementary plating to bare areas resulting from jigs or fixtures during bath plating. D. General details of the equipment required are given in M-DLPS118, Brush Plating. E. No reference is made to details of procedu re normally associated with proper shop practice and good workmanship. Specific training in the sk ills of brush plating is a requirement of this specification. 2. Associated Specifications A. M-DLPS100 Cadmium Plating. B. M-DLPS118 Brush Plating. C. M-DLPS131 Cadmium Plat ing of Ultra-high Tensile Steels. D. ISO 9227 ) Salt Spray Corrosion Tests in artificial atmospheres. (BS 7479) ) 3. Health and Safety A. The plating operation must be carried out in a well ventilated area with local fume extraction as cadmium is toxic and the fumes evolved durin g plating are irritants. Consult the plating solution supplier's health and safety data sheet for further information. B. Rubber or plastic gloves must be worn for the cleaning and plating processes. C. After using this process, hands must be thoroughly washed. D. There must be no eating, drinking or smoking in the workshop. 4. Solutions Required A. Plating Solutions (1) Plating solutions approved for use against this specification are: (a) Selectron LHE Cadmium Plating Solution Code No SPS-5070.
or (b) Selectron Cadmium (No Bake) Solution Code No 2023/1.

(c) Metadalic Cadmium Plating Solution Code No 2023. NOTE: Alternative plating solutions certified to meet the hydrogen embrittlement test requirements of AMS2451/4 can be used. B. Passivation Solution (1) Sodium Dichromate: 135 - 175g (2) Sulphuric Acid: 5 - 8g (3) Water, to make: 1 litre 5. General Requirements A. Thorough operator training is essential. All brush plating operators are required to hold a certificate of competence. An operator training service is offered by Sifco Selective Plating Ltd and by Metadalic Ltd. B. Polish to remove corrosion using hand tools: refer to M-DLPS1004-4-1. C. Shot peened surfaces which have been reworked, must be re-shot peened or flap peened prior to brush plating. D. Where brush cadmium plating is called for asa supplement to bath plating, it should wherever possible, be carried out imme diately following bath plating and before de-embrittlement. When this process is used to repair damaged cadmium, or parts reworked as in paragraph 5.C. de-embrittlement is not required. E. Unless otherwise stated on the Drawing, the minimum thickness of plate shall be 10 μ m (0.0004 in). 6. Procedure A. Degrease the area to be plated, including the surrounding area, with a solvent and wipe dry with a cloth or absorbent paper. B. Mask as necessary, to define the plating area. When repairing a prev iously cadmium plated area, the brush plating must overlap the existing cadmium by about 4 mm (0.157 in). C. Abrade the area to be plated, using a water wetted abrasive paper or fine Scotch-Brite pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean tissue or absorbent cloth. D. Before plating begins, the area must be wetted with the plating solution, ensuring freedom from liquid breaks. If necessary the area must be further cleaned to provide a liquid-break free condition. E. Soak a tampon with the plating solution and start the appropriate tampon movement over the plating area, before switching on the current. F. Plate at 15 - 20V until a visible layer of cadmium has formed, then reduce the voltage to achieve 0,93A/cm2 (6A/in2) of anode contact area. Continue plating until the calculated ampere hours have elapsed. To calculate the ampere hours required, consult the technical data provided by the plating solution supplier: FACTOR X AREA X THICKNESS OF PLATING = AMPERE HOURS G. Rinse in cold water.

H. If the process has been carried out as re-work, swab with the passivating solution until a light golden colour is obtained. This cannot normally be expected to produce a good cosmetic match, but the corrosion protection will be fully restored. Rinse in cold water and dry by wiping with a clean cloth or absorbent paper or by means of an air blast. 7. Removal of Defective Deposits A. Defective deposits may be removed by reversing the polarity (i.e. with the component connected to the anode lead and the tampon connected to the cathode and anodically stripping the plate). Replating can be carried out from 6.D using a freshly prepared tampon. 8. Inspection A. The appearance of the plate shall be smooth, and free from porosity and burned areas. The plated area shall blend with the surroundi ng plating although appearance mis-match is inevitable and acceptable. B. The passivation treatment shall be adherent and free from powder. C. There shall be no evidence of separation of the plate when tested as follows: (1) Apply a strip of 3M's No 250 tape using firm finger pressure and then remove the tape by pulling rapidly in a perpendicular direction. Examine the adhesive side of the tape for the presence of cadmium plate. D. The thickness of the plate shall be a minimum of 10 μ m (0.00004 in) unless otherwise specified. E. Thickness shall be measured using a calibrated electronic instrument, such as the Fischer Permascope. 9. Quality Control A. Each operator shall produce a test panel annua lly to demonstrate satisfactory performance. (1) A 15 x 10 cm (6 x 4 in) low alloy stee l test panel shall be dull cadmium plated to M-DLPS100 all over, except for an area of approximately 10 x 5 cm (4 x 2 in) on one face, which shall be left bare. (2) Brush cadmium plate the bare area to this specification. B. The brush plated deposit shall meet the ins pection requirements of paragraph 8 above and after 336 hours salt spray test to ISO 9227 NSS test there shall be no rusting of the base metal.
