Welder Performance Qualification
Welder Performance Qualification
(OP)
Conducting a review of Contractor's Welding Procedures, I find where welder qualifications are conducted by and outside testing lab. I note there is no reference to the actual PQR's used to qualify the original WPS listed on the test. Is this acceptable ? Can you direct me to any statements regarding this in Section lX. Thank you in advance for assistance.

The welder or welding operator who prepares the WPS
qualification test coupons meeting the requirements of
QW-200 is also qualified within the limits of the performance
qualifications, listed in QW-304 for welders and in
QW-305 for welding operators. He is qualified only within
the limits for positions specified in QW-303.
