EnTron™-Aero Removes Zyglo® and Other NDT Fluorescent Penetrants

Over the years, we have learned a great deal about using solvents and vapor degreasing to prepare parts for NDT testing and to remove non-destructive fluorescent penetrants like Zyglo®. The benefit of using EnTron™-Aero and vapor degreasing for pre-cleaning is that the parts are completely cleaned of all contaminants and come out completely dry ready to apply the penetrant. Once Zyglo® testing is complete, the manufactured parts need to be cleaned of all the fluorescent markings. Many aerospace manufacturers already have vapor degreasers as part of their manufacturing process which can be used for pre- and post-NDT processing.

EnTron-Aero™ can be used effectively to clean the Zyglo®, other fluorescent penetrants, and other contaminants (such as machining oils) from the parts prior to the next phase of manufacturing. Parts cleaned in EnTron-Aero leave the degreaser free of contaminants, dry and ready to be used without additional cleaning processes.

Removal of Fluorescent Penetrants with EnTron™-Aero Is Fast and Effective for NDT

Fluorescent penetrant testing is a versatile process for detecting defects open to the surface in non-porous materials. Zyglo® is used as the term of art for testing critical components for defects in the aerospace, automotive and ceramic industries. Zyglo® is also a manufactured fluorescent liquid penetrant. Defects open to the surface are highly visible when Zyglo® is viewed under ultraviolet (A) light.

Pre-Clean with EnTron™-Aero

Prior to coating the test part in the fluorescent liquid, the part needs to be free of all contaminants. This is an excellent time to vapor degrease the part in EnTron™-Aero in preparation for NDT.

Post-Clean with EnTron™-Aero

After test analysis is complete, the Zyglo™ and/or other liquid penetrant fluorescent needs to be removed/rinsed from the part. It is in this stage of the test process that EnTron™-Aero becomes valuable. EnTron™-Aero in your vapor degreaser can effectively remove the Zyglo®.
