Re: [MW:28047] RE: 28045] Enquiry about lower shell MPI while replacing Annular Plate in storage tank

We are following API 653 ,just wanted to know is it mention in code which test is required to check shell surface defect while replacing annular plate. Here two refinery one refinery is accepting MPI and other refinery not accepting MPI ,they told us to do LPT of shell.

What's the design code? Is there any additional requirement such as clients' specifications.

MPI & LPI are often interchangeable for determination of surface defects.

 

Thanks.

Dear experts 

 

We have contract of tank maintenance in Kuwait. While replacing annular plate inspection ask to do DPT of 2 inch of shell plates. In another refinery they are agree to do MPI only while replacing the annular plates. kindly guide me which one is mention in code. If specifically mention in code then pls send me code detail also.

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...
