I am sorry to say ;their is no such ref standards available in Market which specify Quantum of Inspection Levels
 
At this stage you can issue Inspection reports for all valves mentioneing subject to Acceptance of selected Inspection Levels from your End User/Engineering Consultancey
 
You can issue Inspection report with all your observation and your Inspection Level assumptions but mention clearlycceptance by Client due to unavailbility of QAP/Inspection levels
 
I know this is regularly happens in India with TPI companies and they have to take thier own judgement for their Inspection and isuue Inspection reports with conditional approval.and for that your management has to agree for same .

Dear all,
I' ve inspected ball & NRV ( API 6D)  valves for xyz company.QAP was not available & client also not provided extent of check,but i inspected Hydro test 100% for body & 10% foe seat & released all the valves after satisfactory results.
My firm wants clarification for Why i not done 100% testing for seat also?
I' ve been warned,badly as i' ve carried out inspection without QAP & taken my own decision.
Is there any specs. or std. to rsolve this matter? & if available pl.forward me,so that i can
responce immediately to avoid further action.
Pl. help.
Regards to all ...PRASHANT

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

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...
