1、Designation: A 488/A 488M 07Standard Practice forSteel Castings, Welding, Qualifications of Procedures andPersonnel1This standard is issued under the fixed designationA 488/A 488M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, th

2、e year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers the

3、qualification of procedures,welders, and operators for the fabrication and repair of steelcastings by electric arc welding.1.1.1 Qualifications of a procedure and either or both theoperator or welder under Section IX of the ASME Boiler andPressure Vessel Code shall automatically qualify the procedur

4、eand either or both the operator or welder under this practice.P-number designations in the ASME grouping of base metalsfor qualification may be different than the category numberslisted in Table 1. Refer to Appendix X1 for a comparison ofASTM category numbers with the corresponding ASMEP-Number des

5、ignations.1.2 Each manufacturer or contractor is responsible for thewelding done by his organization and shall conduct the testsrequired to qualify his welding procedures, welders, andoperators.1.3 Each manufacturer or contractor shall maintain a recordof welding procedure qualification tests (Fig.

6、1), welder oroperator performance qualification tests (Fig. 2), and weldingprocedure specification (Fig. 3), which shall be made availableto the purchasers representative on request.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text

7、, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with this practice.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the

8、safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
