RE: [MW:22738] OVERLAY WELDING QUALIFICATION

For ASME Code compliance, yes a PQR and WPS are required.

If performed in accordance with ASME Section IX, testing requirements for hard facing overlay are located in Table QW-453, notes 3, 7, 8 and 9. Those applicable to required testing are shown below:

(3) The hard‐facing surface shall be examined by the liquid penetrant method and shall meet the acceptance standards in QW-195.2 or as
specified in the WPS. Surface conditioning prior to liquid penetrant examination is permitted.
(7) After surface conditioning to the minimum thickness specified in the WPS, a minimum of three hardness readings shall be made on each
of the specimens from the locations shown in QW‐462.5(b) or QW‐462.5(e). All readings shall meet the requirements of the WPS.
(8) The base metal shall be sectioned transversely to the direction of the hard‐facing overlay. The two faces of the hard‐facing exposed by
sectioning shall be polished and etched with a suitable etchant and shall be visually examined with × 5 magnification for cracks in the
base metal or the heat‐affected zone, lack of fusion, or other linear defects. The overlay and the base metal shall meet the requirements
specified in the WPS. All exposed faces shall be examined. See QW‐462.5(b) for pipe and QW‐462.5(e) for plate.
(9) When a chemical composition is specified in the WPS, chemical analysis specimens shall be removed at locations specified in QW‐462.5
(b) or QW‐462.5(e). The chemical analysis shall be performed in accordance with QW‐462.5(a) and shall be within the range specified in
the WPS. This chemical analysis is not required when a chemical composition is not specified on the WPS.

Simplifying:

PT on finished/minimum surface
Hardness on finished/minimum surface
Cross section macro at 5X
Chemistry, only if required for WPS

No bend tests are required - this would be a requirement for corrosion resistant overlay.

You require to test for 4 bend,Chemistry at various levels from fusion line,This is in addition to hardness at cross section as per client requirement Regards Hegde Prakash

Dear Sir,

 

Please let me know what
are the test required for overlay welding of
Stellite-6 on Carbon
Steel Casting conforming to ASTM-A 216 Gr. WCB of Valve like PT and Hardness as per ASME Section IX

Please let me know
whether FUSION Test is required or not?

The
thickness of WCB Plate is 26mm and Overlaying welding is single layer and minium requirement of overlaying is 1.6mm after machining of job.

  

REGARDS

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, ...
