FIG. 5.36 shows the signal from a ferromagnetic condition at the outside<br />

surface. It could be confused with a signal from a dent, but the two can readily<br />

be distinguished if required by retesting at a different test frequency. The signal<br />

from a ferromagnetic condition at the outside surface will show phase rotation<br />

with respect to the signal from an inside surface flaw, as stated above, whereas<br />

a dent signal will remain approximately 180 ° from the inside surface flaw signal.<br />

FIG. 5.36. The signals from a typical absolute probe from flaws. an outside<br />

surface ferromagnetic condition, a dent, a ferromagnetic baffle plate and a nonferromagnetic<br />

support tested at f 90 .<br />
