[MW:7321] RE: 7314] WPS FOR DOWNHILL WELDING

Dear Suresh,

Since Welding progression is a non-essential variable as per ASME Sec-IX, there is no need to re-qualify the PQR .

Only you have to qualify welders in downhill position.

Subject: [MW:7314] WPS FOR DOWNHILL WELDING

 

Dear gents,

Could anybody help me for the following concerns,

 

We have a company approved PQR and WPS for welding P1 to P1material with GTAW process .Now we need to use this WPS for down hill welding. Materials, consumables process are same. According to ASME 1X welding progression is non essential variable for WPS and essential variable for welder qualification.So only welder qualification is enough for using the existing WPS for down hill welding?

 

Thanks and regards 
Suresh
