Re: Re: [MW:8378] Hydrotesting Pressure gauge calibration

Hi,

Ststutatory requirements depend upon mfrs. recommendation, clients requirement, or continuously used more than 4 times or while testing if there is any more difference than tolerance or calibrated test certificate reading or not working properly during test or any damage or more heat zone then you have to recalibrate and compare reading . if it goes beyond tolerance or acceptable limit of std engineering procedure simply throw it and replace with new calibrated by accredited body such as NABL approved labs.

>Dear Karthik :

I have a complicated situation with pressure gauge calibration period.

During calibration test, our gauge found to be showing wrong reading (below actual). And clients ask to re-test all spool pipe tested using the gauge.

My question, is that acceptable ? luckily there are only small number of spool to be re-tested, but I cant imagine if that happens to spools that already put in service.re

Just a share, but I appreciate any coments and advise.

Best Regards
Bonardo

Hi,
Pressure gauge calibration time shall be in every 6 months as per the normal practice and various project specifications.

Thanks & Regards,

Dear All,



Can you pls
Suggest as the Piping Hydrotesting Pressure gauge calibration period of time,

and also is
there any code/stds governing for this.

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

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

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, ...
