[MW:2212] Re: 2198] Full Penetration Weld Test On Assemble Valve

By Materials & Welding
As discussed by  all PWHT is appliable but same time you need to carryout relevant NDE whichever you have carried out before welding
 
FPW in assembled valve will be considered as Repair on casting and you need to get approval for Repair procedure,WPS/PQR/WPQ,PWHT Procedure,NDE Procedure

As manufacturer already says it will increase tension and material structure, pwht is advisable. But if its a test and the customer pays, execute and report.

Customer require Full Penetration Weld on Valve. However, manufacturer response as below..
 
To carry out the FPW on the valve with ASTM A351CF8C is not advisable. This is because during the process the material will expose to the temperature around 900 deg C.
When the material (ASTM A351CF8C)  expose to the temperature above  700 deg C it will transform or out of shape especially on the  parts like valve disc or valve stem,seat, etc.
This valve also required PWHT and the PWHT is carry out prior to assembling and because of welding bonnet , disassembling , machining and polishing cannot be done.
Therefore we wish to inform you again that it is NOT ADVISABLE to do the FPW.
 
But customer still insist on the test. Please advise.

Mr. Lee – Could you post your question more in detail, as I understand the question – RT can be carried out on weld joint of assembled valve to test the weld full penetration.

Can Full Penetration Weld test on assembled valve ( ASTM A351CF8C ) ?

 

Please advise.

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
