Dear friend , this may be related to high heat input especially the  cracks  location in photos mention the points of doubled heated times . high temp. with Ni/Cu alloys make carbides precipitate easier leading to cracks also coarse grain size which increase with heat have more tendency to crack as precipitation area increase Best Regards , AWS CWEng.    Ahmed Osman  On Monday, August 30, 2021, 11:42:03 a.m. GMT+3, Jeya Prakash <jeyaprakashjj@gmail.com> wrote: Dear Experts, We are facing cracking issues during welding in Monel 400 Tube to Tubesheet Joints.

API 1104 does allow for welder qualification of butt weld joint only by RT (API 6.6.1) it also allows welders to be qualified under ASME SEC. IX, which allows RT.  BUT, it depends on what they are being qualified to weld on. If they will be welding on natural gas facilities, they will be required to have been qualified by destructive testing. (Per CFR requirements). Thanks, Chip Frizzell  Price is what you pay-value is what you get.  Seldom does the lowest price result in the best value!

Just to add, Your PQR temperature is 290 and according to ASME Sec.iX it can be increased to 345max in the WPS if Charpy Impact test is Applicable else even more.

Interpass temperature is the temperature measured after welding of each pass. (please refer for definition of each pass in welding). Normally before you start welding you apply PREHEAT and this becomes the minimum Preheat temperature and after start of welding due to the high Arc temperature the welding heat will be conducted and after completion of one pass say for example Root pass one shall measure the temperature on the weld bead(root bead). Like wise for each pass the interpass temperature shall be measured. Welding shall be performed for all passes between minimum Preheat Temperature and maximum Interpass temperature measured at the start of each pass. Interpass temperature is measured after completion of one pass and whereas welding preheat during welding shall never be less than minimum preheat temperature. Effect of Interpass temperature on Carbon steel. 1. Higher the Interpass temperature, then slower the weld cooling rate which inturn results in Higher Grain size in the fini...

Dear  Rameez khan RK, Interpass temperature is generally mentioned as MAXIMUM.  Hence Approved PQR interpass temp. is 290 but in WPS its mention 340 c is acceptable.  Please note that code has specifically mentioned as important criteria when impact test is essential in application. It is  a delicate balance between time & temperature for preheat, post heat cooling rate, Thickness, Heat Input, Ambient Conditions & Heat Transfer.  The WPS & PQR is the basis of the starting point for establishing design requirements. At times simulations tests are carried out to ensure & impose limit on preheat, interpass temperature control & PWHT requirement to regain requisite material properties in as delivered conditions of final equipment / structures. Hence it is a designer driven MOC & welding technology  fulfillment to achieve desired end results.  The application can vary from structure, Pressure vessels, aero, nuclear, defense ...

Interpass temperature is defined in QW/QB-492. Measurement of it can be made using Temperature indicating crayons, contact or infrared pyrometers, etc. It need not be measured during procedure qualification or recorded on the PQR unless impact  testing  is required. It is also an essential variable fpr Weld Overlay qualification.
