QW-404.33
- Thread starter salvo1609
- Start date
Guys,
With all due respect I have to disagree.
Interpretation: IX-89-03
Subject: Section IX, QW:-l00.1 and QW-200.1
Question (1): Is it required that all of the essential and nonessential variables listed in QW-250
through QW.280 for each welding process be addressed in the WPS, even though some of these
variables are not applicable?
Reply (1): Yes.
If I use QW 482 as the basis for all my WPS's I will have numerous cases of N/A.
As an example
If I have a GTAW WPS I must list all essential and non-essential variables listed in QW-250 through QW-280 for that welding process as noted above.
However, any variables relevant to the SAW process (as an example) will be N/A.
Of course, one could write their WPS's so they are only applicable to that particular welding process but in 30 years of reviewing WPS's I have never seen that occur.
Cheers,
DD

indeed the 404.33 with specific heat is not possible to use because that heat number of filler material is finished
GTAW 482 say no essenzial variable, in wps document therefore can be N/A inc ase i don't have material and don't use in case my company choice to have a new supply of filler material.
I'm asking if this is good interpretation.
