Re: [MW:31898] RE: 31877] E316L -15for Type 304L SS welding -cryogenic services

Dears ,

using E316L due to Mo content which is more than E308L .

304L base metal is less in Mo than E3016L which give a benefit for it than E308L regarding the risk of corrosion caused by the effects of molybdenum partitioning during solidification

also E316L give more better mech. prosperities even till -269c which meaning more confidence

Hi Sudhakar,

 

The rationale provided in your clients' specification on SMAW welding consumable for -1960 C impact is not correct. SMAW and GTAW consumables conforming to 308L grades will happily meet the Charpy impact requirements @ -1960 C.

308L SMAW welding electrodes are well formulated and manufactured to meet -1960 C impact. You may take look at the products of Kobelco, NC 38LT(308L) & NC 36LT(316L).

In fact, 308L welding consumables always exhibits superior impact than SS 316L at -1960 C.

 

Sec VIII, DIV-1, UHA -51, illustrates the various technical requirements for cryogenic -1960 C design services , including  "Ferrite Requirements".

 

Thanks.

Experts

 

Below requirement given in one LNG project... 

 

Welding Consumables:

1. SMAW Consumables for Type 304L Stainless Steel Impact Tested at -196°C (-320°F).

Consumable:

ASME Specification SFA 5.4 in Part C, Section II Material Specification

- AWS Classification E316L-15

Certification and Testing:

ASME Specification SFA 5.01 in Part C, Section II Material Specification

- Lot Classification - C5

- Level of testing - Schedule K

Testing Requirements for each Lot of electrode:

Each Lot of electrode shall be certified with the minimum following testing:

- Chemical analysis of weld metal to meet the requirements for classification E316L

except the maximum phosphorus shall be 0.03% and the maximum sulphur shall be

0.02%.

- Delta ferrite determination per paragraph A6.9 of SFA 5.4. The weld metal shall be

a maximum Ferrite Number of 2 FN.

- Charpy V-notch impact test shall be performed on the weld metal in accordance

with SFA 5.4, paragraph A9.3.1. The weld test assembly shall be prepared and

welded with CVN specimens removed as per paragraph A9.3.5 of SFA 5.4. Five

impact specimens shall be tested at -196°C (-320F). The lowest and highest values

obtained shall be disregarded. The three remaining values shall be equal to, or

exceed, 20 mils of lateral expansion. The energy in ft-lbs and the percent ductile

fracture areas shall be reported for information.

 

Question

1) what is the technical  Reason behind for E316L -15 for Type 304L SS welding  SMAW process -cryogenic , however for GTAW process ER308L specified for Type 304L welding.

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, ...
