Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75  % of the member bodies
casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 19232-1 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in collaboration with
ISO Technical Committee TC  135, Non-destructive testing, Subcommittee SC  5, Radiation methods, in
accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 19232-1:2004), of which it constitutes a
minor revision with the following changes:
— update of references and definitions;

— statement that EN wire IQIs of EN 462-1:1994[1] and its designation are identical with ISO wire IQIs
and its designation, as defined in this part of ISO 19232;
— replacement of film by detector, which includes film and digital detectors;

— addition of a new Annex for conversion of ASTM wire IQI identities to ISO wire IQI numbers.
It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum, ISO 19232-1:2004/Cor. 1:2007.

ISO 19232 consists of the following parts under the general title Non-destructive testing — Image quality
of radiographs:
— Part 1: Determination of the image quality value using wire-type image quality indicators

— Part 2: Determination of the image quality value using step/hole-type image quality indicators
— Part 3: Image quality classes

— Part 4: Experimental evaluation of image quality values and image quality tables

— Part 5: Determination of the image unsharpness value using duplex wire-type image quality indicators

Figure 1 — Image quality indicator (wire-type)

The IQI system is based on a series of 19 wires of different diameters which are specified in Table 1
together with the relevant tolerances and the wire numbers. This series of wires has been subdivided
into four overlapping ranges of seven consecutive wire numbers, viz. W 1 to W 7, W 6 to W 12, W 10 to
W 16, and W 13 to W 19. The seven wires in an IQI are arranged parallel to each other. The length of the
wires, l, is 10 mm, 25 mm or 50 mm.
The written designation of an image quality indicator shall be labelled with the letters IQI, the number
of this part of ISO 19232, the wire number of the thickest wire as specified in Table 1 (e.g. W 10), the
symbol denoting the wire material (e.g. FE), and the length (e.g. 25):
EXAMPLE 1

IQI ISO 19232-1 - W 10 FE-25

IQIs with the designation EN 462-1[1] are considered to be identical to IQIs with the designation ISO 19232-1.

NOTE
Annex A gives a table for conversion of ASTM E747-04[2] wire identities to the wire IQI values of this
part of ISO 19232.

The full designation may be abbreviated to the wire number of the thickest wire of the IQI (e.g. W 10)
and the wire material (e.g. FE) where reference to this part of ISO 19232 is clear.
EXAMPLE 2

W 10 FE

4.2 Material

All the wires of an IQI shall consist of the same material and shall be embedded in a protective covering
of a material which shall not affect the image quality value. See Table 2 for usual wire materials.

4.3 Marking of IQI

The marking applied on the IQI (see Figure 1) shall give the following information:

a) number of the thickest wire (1, 6, 10, or 13); this is located at the side of the thickest wire;

b) letters identifying the wire material used, e.g. FE;
c) ISO letters.
EXAMPLE

10 FE ISO

IQIs with the letters EN are considered to be identical to IQIs with the letters ISO.

The radiographic image of the identification shall not cause glare when the radiograph is viewed. It is
recommended that the absorption of the marking is not more than twice the absorption of the thickest wire.

4.4 Declaration of conformity

Each IQI shall be delivered with a declaration of conformity according to ISO/IEC  17050-1 which
confirms that the IQI complies with this part of ISO 19232. For identification, the IQI shall be numbered
and marked by the producer.

5 Use of image quality indicators
5.1 Selection
The criteria for selecting the IQI to be used shall be the material under test and the image quality value
expected or required.

The wire material shall have a coefficient of absorption as close as possible to that of the material under
test. Where IQIs as listed in Table 2 are used for materials other than those listed in this table, refer to
ISO 19232-4. In such cases, the wire material shall have the next lowest coefficient of absorption to that
of the object under test. If this is not feasible because the differences in absorption are too great, IQIs
made of the same type of material as the object under test shall be used.

When the radiograph is taken, the IQI shall be placed on the side of the section under test facing the
source of radiation and remote from the detector.

If this is not possible, the IQI may be placed adjacent to the side of the section under test nearest the
detector. To indicate that this arrangement has been used, the image of a letter F shall be visible on the
radiograph near the IQI marking.
The IQI shall be placed on the object in an area where the thickness is as uniform as possible.
Special arrangements may be determined by application standards.

6 Determination of image quality value

In determining the image quality value, the conditions for viewing radiographs specified in ISO 5580
shall be observed. The number of the thinnest wire which is clearly visible on the radiograph shall be

taken as the image quality value. The image of a wire is accepted if a continuous length of at least 10 mm
is clearly visible.
In general, the image quality value shall be determined for every radiograph for which a verification of
image quality is required.
If steps have been taken to guarantee that radiographs of similar test objects and regions are produced
with identical exposure and processing techniques and no differences in the image quality value are
likely, the image quality need not be verified for every radiograph, the extent of image quality verification
being subject to agreement between the contracting parties.

Annex A
(informative)

Guidance for conversion of the ASTM E747-04[2] standard wire
identities
Wire IQIs as described in ASTM E747-04[2] have equivalent wire diameters as given in Table 1, but
different designations. Table A.1 provides guidance for conversion of the ASTM E747-04[2] standard wire
identities to the wire numbers of this part of ISO 19232. The acceptance of radiographs with ASTM E74704[2] IQIs may require the agreement of the contracting parties.
A requirement of 4.4 is that the producer number and mark the ASTM E747-04[2] wire IQIs used for
identification.
