Standards
This standard describes exhaust emission requirements for all new domestic and commercial vehicles which have been registered in Guyana for the first time after December 31, 1997. This standard also describes exhaust emission requirements, measurement methods and measurement equipment for all vehicles, which are imported into Guyana after December 31, 1997. All imported vehicles would be required to conform to exhaust emission limits specified in the standard. Accordingly, the exhaust emission limits must be fully documented and certified by the suppliers/manufacturers, from the country of origin.
This standard establishes the basic principles for carrying out vibration measurement and processing data, with regard to evaluating vibration effects on buildings. The evaluations of the effects of building vibration are primarily directed at structural response, and include appropriate analytical methods where the frequency, duration and amplitude can be defined. It only deals with the measurement of structural vibration and excludes the measurement of airborne sound pressure and other pressure fluctuations.
This standard provides general guidance on methods of carrying out penetrant inspection
on materials and components both during manufacture and in service. It does not
deal with acceptance or rejection. Penetrant inspection is used to locate
discontinuities, such as laps, folds, cracks, porosity and fissures, which are
open to the surface of a material or component. Penetrant techniques can be
used on materials irrespective of their physical properties, provided that the surface
is normally non-absorbent and compatible with the penetrant process.
This standard provides general guidance on the verification procedures to be applied when
carrying out penetrant inspection, in accordance with ISO 3452. These tests are intended to ensure that the
penetrant system is functioning correctly and that there has been no harmful
deterioration of the process materials during service. Generally, the frequency
of checking penetrant materials and black light sources will depend on the
frequency and conditions of usage. Specific and maximum intervals should be recommended
by the manufacturer.
.
This standard specifies the minimum requirements for industrial illuminators
used for viewing radiographs.
This standard lays down general
requirements on penetrant flaw detectors and their functional units which are
designed to reveal invisible, or poorly visible to the eye, surface
discontinuities in metals and non-metals of any geometry and at any stage of manufacture.
This part of GYS 120 specifies an ultrasonic testing method for
determining bond defects between the bearing metal and the backing. The test can be performed on metallic
multilayer plain bearings consisting of backings lined with bearing metal based
on lead and tin, with layer thickness greater than or equal to 0, 5 mm. The test is not possible within half the diameter
of the crystal from the edges of the bearing, oil holes, grooves, etc. because
of undefined reflections. In bearings with dovetail keying grooves at the bond,
the test may not be possible along the edges of the dovetails.
. This part of GYS
120 specifies a non-destructive penetrant testing for determining bond defects
and discontinuities in the sliding surface of the bearing. The penetration method
is used to detect - bond defects in the transitional area between the bearing
backing/bearing material on the end faces and joint faces of multilayer plain bearings which
cannot be detected by the ultrasonic testing method specified in ISO 4386- 1; discontinuities
in the sliding surface of the bearing. The penetration method is applicable, in
principle, to finished multilayer plain bearings.
This standard specifies requirements for full peripheral ultrasonic shear wave
testing of seamless and welded tubes for pressure purposes, with the exception
of submerged arc-welded (SAW) tubes, for the detection of longitudinal
imperfections according to four different acceptance levels (see table 1). This
standard is applicable to the inspection of tubes with an outside diameter greater
than or equal to 9 mm, and with an outside diameter-to-thickness ratio greater
than or equal to 5. For tubes with an outside diameter-to-thickness ratio less than
5, one of the methods specified in Annex A shall be used by agreement between manufacturer
and purchaser.
This standard specifies requirements for eddy
current testing of seamless and welded tubes for pressure purposes, with the exception
of submerged arc-welded (SAW) tubes, for the detection of imperfections, according
to two different acceptance levels (see tables 1 and 2). It is applicable to the inspection of tubes
with an outside diameter greater than or equal to 4 mm.
