Overview
EN ISO 3452-5:2008 (ISO 3452-5:2008) defines requirements for penetrant testing (liquid penetrant inspection) when performed at temperatures higher than 50 °C. This part of the ISO 3452 series covers special process controls, qualification methods for penetrant materials intended for high-temperature use, and safety and personnel requirements. It is intended for users and manufacturers who need robust non‑destructive testing (NDT) procedures for elevated-temperature applications.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope & applicability: Applies to penetrant testing materials and procedures used above 50 °C; products must be qualified for the relevant temperature range and used per the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Qualification procedure: Manufacturer-conducted type tests using thermostatic cells and defined reference blocks. Key steps include stabilizing the block, heating to 20 °C above the test point, applying penetrant at the test temperature, maintaining temperature for the qualification time, removing excess, applying developer, and inspection.
- Temperature ratings and test points:
- Medium (M): 50 °C and 100 °C (range 50–100 °C)
- High (H): 100 °C, 150 °C, 200 °C (range 100–200 °C)
- Manufacturer-specified ranges (A, B) tested at 50 °C intervals
- Tolerance ±5 °C for test points
- Performance criteria: Candidate materials must demonstrate similar or better performance than reference products; quantitative tests should show at least 90% of reference performance.
- Reference artefacts: Use Type 1 reference blocks (quantitative) and Annex A comparator matched-pair blocks (qualitative) for evaluation.
- Equipment & controls: Requires additional equipment beyond ISO 3452-2: thermostatic cell (stability at least 50 °C above max test temp), high-temperature gloves and brush, and a contact surface thermometer (±5 °C).
- Safety & personnel: Special safety measures for high temperature (skin burns, flammability, volatility, ventilation). Personnel should be suitably certified (e.g., ISO 9712, EN 473) and trained on high-temperature considerations.
- Process documentation: Process times must be linked to working temperatures and recorded in written procedures.
Applications - who uses this standard
- NDT technicians and service providers performing high-temperature penetrant inspections
- Manufacturers of penetrant test materials developing or qualifying high-temperature products
- Quality, inspection and reliability engineers in industries such as aerospace, automotive, power generation, oil & gas, metallurgy, and foundries
- Test laboratories and certification bodies that validate penetrant material performance

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 3452-5 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 138, Non-destructive testing, in collaboration with ISO Technical Committee TC 135, Non-destructive
testing, Subcommittee SC 2, Surface methods, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation
between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
ISO 3452 consists of the following parts, under the general title Non-destructive testing — Penetrant testing:
⎯ Part 1: General principles
⎯ Part 2: Testing of penetrant materials
⎯ Part 3: Reference test blocks
⎯ Part 4: Equipment
⎯ Part 5: Penetrant testing at temperatures higher than 50 °C
⎯ Part 6: Penetrant testing at temperatures lower than 10 °C
ISO 3452-5:2008(E)
Introduction
Temperatures higher than 50 °C can affect the properties of penetrant test materials. The use of penetrant
materials and the testing of penetrant materials within the temperature range 10 °C to 50 °C are the subject of
EN 571-1 and ISO 3452-2. This part of ISO 3452 addresses materials and their use at higher temperatures.
This part of ISO 3452 introduces the concept of process times being linked to working temperatures and
accordingly users are recommended to ensure that testing products are correctly associated with process
parameters in written instructions (procedures).
Testing products may be specifically developed and qualified for high temperature use but testing products
qualified for use at normal temperatures, in some cases, may also be suitable for higher temperature use.
This part of ISO 3452 was prepared with the assistance of ISPESL (Italy), whose laboratory performed
research activity to verify the possibility of using penetrant at temperatures higher than 50 °C, up to 200 °C.
