Document Responsibility: Vessels Standards Committee 32-SAMSS-004 Issue Date: 12 January 2015 Next Planned Update: 30 June 2019 Manufacture of Pressure Vessels 12.7.8 12.7.6 12.7.7 Standards and Technology (NIST), including but not limited to the calibration of the ICP-MS instrument. ICP-MS shall be calibrated with sample standards provided by NIST. Test results shall be documented as a reference, including calibration curves for Pb, Bi and Sb. Unless the vessel manufacturer can provide supporting documents to differentiate bonding strength resulting from different welding procedures, all disbonding tests shall be according to Domain - A test conditions and acceptance criteria of Table 3 in API RP 934-A. Step cooling tests of the base metal are required for 2 %4 Cr-1 Mo, 2% Cr-l Mo- % V, 3 Cl Mo and 3 Cr-1 Mo- % V steels, unless impact testing at -80° F (-62° C) results in 40 ft-lb (55 Joules) average minimum and no single value below 35 fi-Ib (48 Joules). The phosphorous content of 1 Cr- ¥ Mo and I % Cr-¥ Mo steels shall not exceed 0.007% in weight. Tolerance 12: Bottom of vessel support to base line 0 mm, -6 mm. Tolerance 13: For supports located above baseline, tolerances shall be Omm, + 6 mm. Tolerance 14: Maximum difference in peak deviations from straight, applied to the shell at any location along the circumference clear of openings, shall be: 3 mm in any Page 36 of 64
