ASTM A612 A612M-2003 Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates Carbon Steel High Strength for Moderate and Lower Temperature Service.pdf

1、Designation: A 612/A612M 03Standard Specification forPressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, High Strength, forModerate and Lower Temperature Service1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 612/A612M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption

2、 or, in the case of revision, the 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.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2covers killed carbon-manganese-silicon steel plates int

3、ended for welded pressure vessels inservice at moderate and lower temperatures.1.2 The maximum thickness of plates supplied under thisspecification is 1 in. 25 mm.1.3 For plates produced from coil and furnished withoutheat treatment or with stress relieving only, the additionalrequirements, includin

4、g additional testing requirements and thereporting of additional test results, of Specification A 20/A 20M apply.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem

5、are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the specifi-cation.2.

7、 Requirements and Ordering Information3.1 Plates supplied to this product specification shall con-form to Specification A 20/A 20M, which outlines the testingand retesting methods and procedures, permissible variationsin dimensions and mass, quality and repair of defects, marking,loading, and so for

8、th.3.2 Specification A 20/A 20M also establishes the rules forordering information that should be complied with whenpurchasing material to this specification.3.3 In addition to the basic requirements of this specifica-tion, certain supplementary requirements are available whereadditional control, te

9、sting, or examination is required to meetend use requirements.3.4 The purchaser is referred to the listed supplementaryrequirements in this specification and to the detailed require-ments in Specification A 20/A 20M.3.5 Coils are excluded from qualification to this specifica-tion until they are proc

10、essed into finished plates. Platesproduced from coil means plates that have been cut toindividual lengths from coil. The processor directly controls, oris responsible for, the operations involved in the processing ofcoils into finished plates. Such operations include decoiling,leveling, cutting to l

11、ength, testing, inspection, conditioning,heat treatment (if applicable), packaging, marking, loading forshipment, and certification.NOTE 1For plates produced from coil and furnished without heattreatment or with stress relieving only, three test results are reported foreach qualifying coil.
