[MW:23763] RE: 23760] PTC(Production Test Coupon) Requirements.

Hi Mr Pinaki Boxi.

 

Production test coupons are mandatory as per ASME Sec- VII DIV-2. Please see the generic comparison of the ASME Sec –VIII codes in the following attachment (downloadable at the following web link).

 

The simulation test gives confidence about the materials , not after fabrication. Hence vessel test coupons are required.

 

Please look through following DIV-2 clauses with respect Test coupon requirements (with bullets as below).

 

Thanks..

Dear Sir/Experts,

We are going to the manufacturing the Sphere for Liquid/unsaturated LPG.Design Code ASME Section -Vlll Div-2, design temperature -34 deg centigrade. Materials are impacted tested at  -34 deg centigrade wıth simulated heat treatment. Condition.

I have doubt regarding PTC. As per Section Vlll Div-1 if materials are under impact tested in that case PTC is mandatory. 

But as per ASME Section Vlll Div-2 it is required or not please advised me with supporting clause/documents.
