[MW:11432] RE: 11430] T91 P Number / Welder's qualification

No you do not need to requalify the welders.  See QW-423.1.  See also QW-100.3 and, especially, the last paragraph of QW-420.

 

The last paragraph of QW-420 reads as follows:

"There are instances where materials assigned to one P- or S- Number or Group Number have been reassigned to a different P- or S- number or Group Number in latter editions.  Procedure and performance qualifications that were qualified under the previous P- or S- numbers or Group Numbers may continue to be used under the new P-Number or Group Number assignment, see QW-200.2 (c) , provided the WPS is revised to limit the materials qualified for welding to those assigned to the new P- or S- Number(s)  and Group Number(s) for the specific materials originally used for the procedure qualification test coupon.  . . ."

Hi all,

  In our project, we have to weld T91 material, our welder's qulified in 2011 in PN°5A material, so according ASME sect IX edit 2007 they can weld T91 materials. But in the last edition, T91 is P Number 15E, we must re qualify the welders for this PNumber.
T91 is really P Number according lasr edition ASME ?
