Re: [MW:24436] Welder Qualification as per ASME SEC IX

Dear Mr. Mohd. Azam,

please refer QW 322.1 for expiration of qualification and 322.2 for renewal of qualification.

For your case qualification has expired as per 322.1(a) and re qualification should be done as per 322.2 (a).

Regards,

Anosh Wankhade

Dear Azam,

in my opinion considering only ASME Sec IX,

1) if you are confident on the Welder's skill , you can take advantage of ASME Sec IX:2013, QW-322.2 by arranging a test using each processes that he was previously qualified. only process is important. material, shape, thickness, positions and electrical or other parameters are not restricted. After visual you can go for RT in lieu of Bend test. This will revalidate all his previous qualification with the same PROCESS(s).

2) if the welders ability is under doubt or he was not successful in (1) above, retests for all his previous qualifications has to be carried out (QW-322.2(b))

Dear Expert,
"X" welder working with company and left the organization. Again after Two or three year he is joining back same company. All earlier certificate is available with company with proper documentation.

Is it possible to renew his earlier certificate with one sample based on RT or visual inspection OR All new qualification is to be done New. Qualification code is ASME SEC IX.

Pls provide your valuable input with standard reference.

Thanks & Regards,
