    Uploaded by

    ANIL PLAMOOTTIL
    The document outlines requirements for DSS-PQR welding procedures for duplex stainless steel. It specifies requirements for base material composition, weld metal composition, Charpy impact testing limits, hardness testing, microstructure examination including ferrite content ranges, and essential variables that require requalification if changed.

    DSS – PQR Requirements 

    1. RT 

    2. PT 

    3. Ferrite    ( 30‐65FN) 

    4. PMI 

      Carbon 0.03% max.


      Sulphur 0.01% max.
    Phosphorous 0.02% max.
    Nitrogen 0.14% min.
    PREN 35 min. for 22Cr type consumables
    (e.g. E2209-XX, ER2209)
    For 25Cr type consumables, PREN shall match the base material as closely as
    possible but shall not be less than 40
    Ferrite balance 30-65FN

    5. Charpy at ‐40 degree ( Acceptance criteria for full sized specimens shall be ≥ 40J ave./28J min.) 

    6. HI ‐0.8‐2.0 KJ/mm 

    Lean 22Cr duplex stainless steels 0.5-1.5kJ/mm for t ・ 10mm


    22Cr duplex stainless steels
    High alloy 25Cr duplex stainless
    steels
    0.5-2.5kJ/mm for t ・ 10mm
    25Cr super duplex stainless 0.5-1.5kJ/mm for all thickness
    steels
    7. PREN for consumable 

    8. Consumable manufacturer is essential variable. 

    9. Where the wall thickness is less than or equal to 6.4mm, a maximum interpass temperature of 100ºC or 
    lower is recommended. 

    10. Interpass temperature should be limited to 200ºC for 22Cr and high alloy 25Cr duplex stainless steels, and 
    150ºC for 25Cr super duplex stainless steels. 

    11. Magnification requirement‐ Check API RP 582 Cl 11.3.6.2 

    12. For corrosion ASTM A 923 Method C and 20 X magnification 

    13. (A9.1.4) – Below 6.4 mm thk    every thickness separate PQR is required. 

    14. Microstructure 

    15. Hardness for 22 Cr. 
     

     
    16. Two weld test piece cross sections shall be subject to metallographic examination. For 
    qualification of tests in the 5G or 6G positions, the samples shall be taken from the “3 o’clock” 
    and “9 o’clock” locations. 

    17. The austenite ferrite ratio shall be determined at both the cap and root areas in accordance with 
    ASTM E562 using the intercept method with a minimum grid size of 25 and an accuracy of  1%. 
    Fields shall be selected randomly and magnification chosen appropriate to the ferrite lathe size 
    (x500‐x1000) is preferred). The ferrite content shall be in the range of 45‐50% for the base metal 
    and 35‐60% for the weld metal and HAZ. The use of automatic equipment in accordance with 
    ASTM E1245 shall be subject to agreement with EPC Contractor and Company. 

    18. The microstructure shall be examined, with and without etchants, and should be essentially free of grain

    CHECK 
    20. Check for corrosion test requirement. 9A9.2.1) 

    It is essential variable that :-


    Type 22Cr base materials to Type 25Cr base materials or vice versa. Check the actual production
    pipe material

    21. A change in thickness of 0.75-1.5mm from that recorded on the PQR. For production wall
    thickness’ less than or equal to 6.4mm no change in the qualified thickness from that recorded on
    the PQR is permitted (refer to paragraph 11.1.4).

    22. Increase in the preheat or interpass temperature.

    23. Composition of a shielding or purge gas.
