Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) in pipe welding is required if the weld material exceeds a specified thickness, though its exact temperatures depend on chemical makeup of material and are specified by ASME B31.3 code table 331.1.1. Section VIII provides several appendices which contain both mandatory and non-mandatory rules. Annealing The annealing process is used to …

ASME Section VIII contains an array of regulations and guidelines designed to protect pressure vessels, from their design through construction, inspection, and testing. It covers developing, constructing, inspecting and testing processes as well. McEnerney recommended raising the minimum temperature for PWHT testing of SS4 materials from 800degF to 1200degF, in line with Lundin and Khan …

Pseudowire headend termination (PWHT) is an innovative feature that connects subscribers directly to the BNG, making it possible to design robust active/standby or active/active solutions. PWHT configurations combine transport and service logical interfaces of a pseudowire service interface (ps) onto one redundant logical tunnel interface (RLT) which also supports load balancing. PWHT Configuration MX series …

Pwht chart recorders allow you to monitor and record essential data in real-time. They use sensors and input devices to measure different physical or electrical parameters such as temperature, humidity, pressure and voltage – they then create an electrical signal which generates a pen trace on chart paper. Accuracy Traditional chart recorders work by employing …

PWHT (Pre-Weld Heat Treatment) is an integral part of welding that ensures components perform as intended under various service conditions. Our PWHT machines feature fast heating speeds for fast weld seam and fillet treatment and come complete with PLC touch screen interface for ease-of-use. Temperature Control PWHT (Post Weld Heat Treating) is used to maintain …

According to E2G’s findings from its brittle fracture assessments, reducing or eliminating mandatory PWHT may increase brittle cracking while diminishing its positive impacts on stress relief and increasing weld metal toughness. ASME B31 3 establishes requirements for fabrication/welding of process piping. Table 331.1 lists exemptions from mandatory post weld heat treatment requirements in terms of …
