Re: [MW:17786] WPS no. on PQR

By Materials & Welding
Dear Mr. Shrini,
I have not gone to QW-200.1 etc that you have quoted in you reply to the query.
But I can decipher from what you have quoted is .....
it means that the WPS shall refer to the PQR that has been used to prepare the WPS. which means the PQR that has been used while preparing the WPS has to be mentioned.

Let us try to understand and answer the question.

The question here is whether WPS no. is required to be mentioned while preparing the PQR.

In my opinion NO.

Dear Kanagapandian

It shall be mentioned in PQR.

Please go to caluse QW-200.1 (b) & (e)second paragraph

The WPS shall reference the supporting Procedure Qualification
Record(s) (PQR) described in QW-200.2. The
manufacturer or contractor may include any other information
in the WPS that may be helpful in making a Code.

(e) Availability of the PQR. PQRs used to support WPSs
shall be available, upon request, for review by the
Authorized Inspector (AI). The PQR need not be available
to the welder or welding operator.

PQR- is  only one time
WPS-  we prepare many time with in essential limit in supporting PQR.

No, it is not required.    See QW-200.2 (b) – Contents of the PQR.  "The completed PQR shall document all essential and , when required supplementary essential variables of QW-250 through QW-280 for each welding process used during welding of the test coupon.  Non-essential and other variables used during the welding of the test coupon may be recorded at the manufacturers or contractors option.  . . . "  There is no requirement for recording a WPS number.
 
Further, regarding the form provided by Sc IX " Form QW-483, see Nonmandatory Appendix B, has been provided as a guide for the PQR.  . . ."
 
See also the last paragraph of QW-100.1 "The PQR documents what occurred during welding the test coupon and results of testing of the coupon.  As a minimum, the PQR shall document the essential variables and other specific information identified in Article II for each process used during welding the test coupon and the results of the required testing.  In addition when notch toughness testing is required for procedure qualification, the applicable supplementary essential variables for each process shall be recorded."
 
For ASME Section IX it is NOT required.   
 
When stating requirements, one should provide Code reference(s) otherwise indicate it is an "opinion".

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
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, ...
