Welding Procedure Specification for Q-Chem

1. This document provides a welding procedure specification for a single V-groove joint between pipes made of various steel grades. 2. The specification outlines the welding process, filler metal, shielding gas, preheat and interpass temperatures, and parameters for multiple passes using gas tungsten arc welding in the uphill direction. 3. Materials to be welded include carbon and low-alloy steels between 1.6mm to 10.16mm thickness, with gas tungsten arc welding using 2% thoriated tungsten and an ER80S-B2 or ER80S-G filler wire in the DCEN polarity at specific voltage, amperage and wire feed speed ranges.
