receiving, storage, distribution of welding filler metals

2.0 REFERENCE

2.1 ASME Section II Part C.

PART TO O UTSIDE PARTIES NOR USED F OR O THER THAN THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH PR OVIDED WITHOU T PERMISSION OF MANAGEMENT.

0A 2.2 SES W01-F06, Storage welding rods & electrodes.

3.0 RESPONSIBILITY

The field material controller of welding related subcontractor or CTCI shall be

responsible for the receiving, inspection, accepting storage control and distribution of
welding filler metals for this project.

4.0 PROCEDURE

4.1 Welding filler metals shall be purchased which meet all requirements of ASME

4.4 Distribution

4.4.1 Electrodes and Bare filler wire shall be distributed for specific
components or systems by a specifically designated issue clerk and
shall be used only for the welds for which they were issued. A welding
material request sheet (as recommented in Attachment 3) shall be use
when welders request welding materials to issue clerk.
0A
4.4.2 The responsibilities of the issue clerk are including proper maintenance
and continuous operation of the holding ovens. He is also responsible
for the maintenance of the quivers. In addition he is responsible for the
issuance of correct filler metals only to welders.
PART TO O UTSIDE PARTIES NOR USED F OR O THER THAN THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH PR OVIDED WITHOU T PERMISSION OF MANAGEMENT.

0A 4.4.3 Low-hydrogen and stainless steel covered electrodes are issued to

qualified welders in quivers capable of maintaining a minimum of 65 or
higher. Controls placed on quivers are as follows:

A. Each quiver is assigned an unique identification number.

B. Each quivers shall be checked for proper operation daily before

loading.

C. A log LN-901 shall be maintained identifying each quiver for the

date of issue to a welder symbol to whom it was issued.

D. Quivers shall be checked out of and into the rod room daily.

E. A maintenance check/calibaration shall be performed quarterly to

ensure that quivers maintain at least 125 F or higher. A tag which
includes the identifying number date checked and checker's name
shall be affixed to each quivers at all times.

4.4.4 Whenever practical a quantity of welding filler material sufficient for one
shift of work shall be issued. Unused filler material shall be returned to
the issuing rod room at the end of each shift or sooner upon the
completion of the assigned welds or series of welds.

4.5 The QC welding supervisor shall be responsible for rechecking of the withdrawn
filler metal to see if they are issued in compliance with required specifications.

4.5.1 Total material withdrawn per month will be calculated by the distribution
clerk. And a copy of this calculation list LN-903 will be send to the QCP
for filing.

4.5.2 A daily log shall be kept of all material issued.

4.6 Welding filler metals shall be inspected by the issue clerk at the time of
distribution to insure that they meet the following requirements.

4.6.1 Covered electrode coatings are not broken cracked wet discolored.
Starting tips are properly exposed holding ends are clean.

4.6.2 Bare filler wire are not dirty damaged of discolored. In the event of
damage the material shall be discarded. If the material is dirty it shall be
cleaned by wiping clean.

4.7 Field storage

Welding filler metals issued for use in the field shall be stored per manufacturer's
recommendations or if these are not available as detailed below.
PART TO O UTSIDE PARTIES NOR USED F OR O THER THAN THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH PR OVIDED WITHOU T PERMISSION OF MANAGEMENT.

4.7.1 Covered electrodes - stainless steel type. These electrodes shall be

stored in vented welding electrode holding ovens at 150 -200 for at
least 1 hr prior to issue.

4.7.2 Covered electrodes - low hydrogen type. These electrodes shall be

stored in welding electrode holding ovens at 300 - 350 for at least 1
hr prior to issue. Under the following conditions stainless steel
electrodes and low hydrogen electrodes must be re-baked per
manufacturer's recommendation.

Any electrodes which have become wet shall be discarded.

A. Electrode container is broken.

B. During power outages the temperature of electrode holding ovens

shall be monitored. The temperature should fall below 125 F for a
period of 4hrs or longer.

C. Electrodes that have been exposed to the atmosphere for 4hrs or

longer.

D. Unused electrodes returned to the issuing rod room shall be stored

in heated ovens.

4.7.3 Bare filler material

These materials shall be stored in clean dry bins or containers. Bare

filler wire will be issued and remain in approved container until use.

4.7.4 Clellulose electrodes shall not be stored with low hydrogen electrodes.
Cellulose electrodes don't have to be stored in heated ovens.

4.7.5 Only the same type of electrodes filler materials are to be stored
together in the same oven boxes, bins or containers.

4.7.6 Welding foreman or welding supervisor shall allow only qualified welders
to draw welding material out of storage for field use.

0A 4.7.7 Continuous power supply shall be provided for the electrodes in oven,

5.0 WELDING CONSUMABLE RECONDITIONING

5.1 Carbon and Low Alloy Steel Electrode

5.1.1 All unused low hydrogen electrodes at the end of shift are to be returned
to baking oven for recondition at 300 -350 for one hour minimum.
After that shall transfer to holding oven at 100 -150 before issuance.
PART TO O UTSIDE PARTIES NOR USED F OR O THER THAN THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH PR OVIDED WITHOU T PERMISSION OF MANAGEMENT.

5.1.2 Before re-baking, electrodes shall be painted with “Red” color at the end
of electrode for indicating the status as re-baking.

0A 5.1.3 All the electrodes left after re-baking shall not be used at site and shall
be discarded.

5.2 Stainless Steel Electrode

5.2.1 All unused stainless steel electrodes at the end of shift are to be
returned to baking oven for recondition at 100-150 before issuance.

5.2.2 Remaining electrodes from second issuance, this stage shall be make
“Black” color”. These electrodes shall not be used for welding work in
permanent part.
