WE to FE modification by supplier API 6D
WE to FE modification by supplier API 6D
(OP)
Can a supplier change the end connection on a valve? without consent from OEM?
I have a 8" Grove valve whose MTR's say it is WE X RF from OEM, where as the actual valve is WE X WE , the supplier says flanged end was cut off and machined to make it a WE, so my question is does this affect the integrity of the valve?
do we have a procedure that specifies how this should be done?

Flange was cut out to change the end connection to Welded end. A drawing showing the dimensions was provided which meets the dimensional requirements and the valve was tested as per API 6D requirements post modification. Liquid penetrant test was done on the machined surface post modification.
