RE: [MW:15084] Acceptance criteria for Tungsten Inclusion in RT

Curious, first code reference was ASME VIII, DIV. 1 why did you reference ASME B 31.3?  I am unable to see any reference in ASME VIII that tells me to reference B31.3.  WHY would we go to a piping code when we are on a vessel code in the first place?

Dear Prem,

 

IN ASME B 31.3 Table No. 341.3.2 criteria are  given

 

F    Slag inclusion, tungsten inclusion, or elongated indication
                                             Individual length ≤ T w /3
                                             Individual width ≤ 2.5 mm (3⁄32 in.) and ≤ T w /3
                                             Cumulative length ≤ T w in any 12T w weld length
G           Slag inclusion, tungsten inclusion, or elongated indication
                                              Individual length ≤ 2T w
                                               Individual width ≤ 3 mm (1⁄8 in.) and ≤ T w /2
                                                Cumulative length ≤ 4T w in any 150 mm (6 in.) weld length

Please see Table

Dear Prem,

 

There is nothing cleared about tungsten inclusion, for better information please see in ASME sec.VIII Div.1 ,UW-51 paragraph

Dear Friends

 

After reviewing a RT film of a Circ.seam joint (16mm thk), which has been welded with TIG + SMAW, i have observed a tungsten inclusion @2-3mm in dia.

The construction code of the vessel is ASME Sec VIII Div.1

 

No doubt this tungsten inclusion is a defect, but i would like to know whether there is any acceptance criteria related to diameter for the same in ASME Sec VIII Div.1. Please give Code reference.

 

Regards
