This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to perform ultrasonic thickness testing in a range of industrial applications including fabrications, structures and components across a wide range of industries where knowledge of metallurgy associated with the level of application in this unit is required.
Ultrasonic tests are performed on critical component or structural zones. Re-assessment of competency may be required at regular intervals in accordance with Australian Standards or other relevant standards. Actual and potential defects are to be considered, together with ongoing abnormalities.
Materials and chemicals which are subject to codes and regulations - for example, chemicals, explosives, solvents, dangerous materials, acids, or noxious waste products - are subject to safe work habits and must be stored and used in accordance with safe work practices.
This unit should not be selected when unit MEM24008 Perform ultrasonic testing has already been selected.
Where interpretation of technical drawings is required unit MEM09002 Interpret technical drawing should also be selected.
Where the selection and use of engineering measurement is required unit MEM12023 Perform engineering measurements should also be selected.
Where the selection and use of power tools are required unit MEM18002 Use power tools/hand held operations should also be selected.
No licensing or legislative requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. Certification against Australian Standards may be achieved where assessment in this unit of competency is carried out in conjunction with an examining authority as described in AS ISO 9712 Non-destructive testing — Qualification and certification of NDT personnel.
MEM11011 Undertake manual handling
MEM13015 Work safely and effectively in manufacturing and engineering
