[MW:12576] MW: 12563- PWHT of modified P460 NL1 (1.8915) EN 10028-3

Hi David,

 

Please recall today's discussion on this subject. ASME Sec-IX is yet to assign any P No to this steel. Some authentic references on nominal composition and mechanical properties are available in this attachment.

 

This material is accepted for design and construction in Sec-VIII, DIV-2 code, through code cases ,i.e CC-2477 (approved June,2005), reapproved  as CC-2594 ,Nov-2007. ASME imposed some restrictions on this steel, e.g:-

1. thickness of plates not to exceed 20 mm (0.79 in)
2. max copper in the plate -0.20%
3. Vanadium, 0.10-0.20%
4. design temperature not to exceed 150 deg F(65 deg C)
5. PWHT Temperature range-985-1040 deg F(530-560 DegC),Minimum holding time 1/2 hr(30 min) at this temperature.

You may find more details in the code case.

 

Usually European consumable manufacturers ,ESAB, Bohler Thyssen or Metrode should be in a position to offer the recommended welding products for this steel. As this steel is a HSLA grade, often there may not exactly matching weld metal chemistry. However the consumable supplier definitely will have better idea.

 

Thanks.

As this material is not in the tables can anyone provide the PWHT process for material 14.60mm thick in a pressure vessel built to ASME section VIII division 2?
