26、/www.sae.org.B775 1525.1.1 A length of pipe not less than 4 in. (102 mm), shall be flattened under a load applied gradually at room temperature untilthe distance between the platens is five times the wall thickness. The weld shall be positioned 90 from the direction of the appliedflattening force.5.
27、1.2 The flattened specimen shall not exhibit cracks.5.1.3 Superficial ruptures resulting from surface imperfections shall not be a cause for rejection.5.2 Transverse Guided-Bend Weld Test:5.2.1 For welded pipe made either with or without the addition of filler and at the option of the manufacturer,
28、the transverseguided bend weld test may be substituted in lieu of the flattening test. Two bend test specimens shall be taken transversely frompipe or the test specimens may be taken from a test plate of the same material and heat as the pipe, which is attached to the endof the cylinder and welded a
29、s a prolongation of the pipe longitudinal seam. Except as provided in 5.2.2, one shall be subject toa face guided bend test and a second to a root guided bend test. One specimen shall be bent with the inside surface of the pipeagainst the plunger and the other with the outside surface of the pipe ag
30、ainst the plunger. Guided bend test specimens shall beprepared and tested in accordance with Section IX, Part QW, Paragraph QW 160 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codeand shall be one of the types shown in QW 463.1 of that code.5.2.2 For wall thicknesses over 38 in. (9.5 mm) but less than 34
31、in. (19 mm) side bend tests may be made instead of the faceand root bend tests. For specified wall thicknesses 34 in. and over, both specimens shall be subjected to the side bend tests. Sidebend specimens shall be bent so that one of the side surfaces becomes the convex surface of the bend specimen.
32、5.2.3 The bend test shall be acceptable if no cracks or other defects exceeding 18 in. (3 mm) in any direction be present in theweld metal or between the weld and the pipe or plate metal after bending. Cracks which originate along the edges of the specimenduring testing, and that are less than 14 in
33、. (6.5 mm) measured in any direction shall not be considered.5.3 Pressure (Leak Test):5.3.1 HydrostaticEach pipe shall be tested by the manufacturer to a minimum internal hydrostatic pressure of 1000 psi (6.9MPa) provided that the fiber stress, calculated from the following equation, does not exceed
34、 the allowable fiber stress for thematerial:P 52St/D (1)where:P = hydrostatic test pressure, psi (MPa),S = allowable fiber stress, for material in the condition (temper) furnished as specified in the product specification (S iscalculated as the lower of 23 of the specified minimum 0.2 % offset yield
35、 strength or 14 of the specified minimum ultimatestrength for the material),t = minimum wall thickness permitted, in. (mm), including minus tolerance, if any, andD = nominal outside diameter of the pipe, in. (mm).5.3.1.1 The test pressure shall be held for a sufficient time to permit the entire leng
36、th of the welded seam to be inspected.5.3.2 Pneumatic (Air Underwater Test)Each pipe shall be tested at a pressure of 150 psi (1.05 MPa). The test pressure shallbe held for a minimum of 5 s. Visual examination is to be made when the material is submerged and under pressure. The full lengthof pipe mu
37、st be examined for leaks.5.3.3 If any pipe shows leaks during hydrostatic or pneumatic testing, it shall be rejected.5.4 Nondestructive Electric Test:5.4.1 Eddy Current TestingTesting shall be conducted in accordance with Practices E426 or E571. The eddy currentexamination reference in this specific
38、ation has the capability of detecting significant discontinuities, especially of the short, abrupttype.5.4.1.1 Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, the calibration standard shall contain, at the option of the manufacturer, anyone of the following discontinuities to establish a minimum sensit
39、ivity level for rejection. The discontinuity shall be placed in theweld if visible.5.4.1.2 Drill HoleA hole not larger than 0.031 in. (0.79 mm) diameter shall be drilled radially and completely through thewall, care being taken to avoid distortion of the material while drilling.5.4.1.3 Transverse Ta
40、ngential NotchUsing a round file or tool with a 14 in. (6 mm) diameter, a notch shall be filed or milledon the pipe outside diameter tangential to the surface and transverse to the longitudinal axis of the material. Said notch shall havea depth not exceeding 12.5 % of the specified wall thickness of
41、 the material, or 0.004 in. (0.10 mm), whichever is greater.5.4.2 Ultrasonic TestingTesting shall be conducted in accordance with Practice E213. The ultrasonic examination referred toin this specification is intended to detect longitudinal discontinuities having a reflective area similar to or large
42、r than the calibrationreference notches specified in 5.4.2.1. The examination may not detect circumferentially oriented imperfections or short, deepdefects.5.4.2.1 For ultrasonic testing, longitudinal calibration notches shall be machined on the outside and inside diameter surfaces.The depth of the
43、notches shall not exceed 12.5 % of the specified wall thickness or 0.004 in. (0.10 mm), whichever is greater. Thenotch shall be placed in the weld, if visible.B775 1535.4.3 Calibration FrequencyThe frequency of calibration checks shall be as follows:5.4.3.1 At the beginning of each production run.5.
44、4.3.2 At least every four hours during testing.5.4.3.3 At the end of each production run.5.4.3.4 After any suspected equipment malfunction or work stoppage.5.4.3.5 If, during any check, the equipment fails to detect the calibration defects, the instrument must be recalibrated and allmaterial tested
45、since the last satisfactory check shall be retested.5.4.4 Acceptance and RejectionMaterial producing a signal equal to or greater than the calibration defect shall be subject torejection.5.4.4.1 Test signals that are produced by imperfections that cannot be identified or that are produced by cracks
46、or crack-likeimperfections shall result in rejection of the pipe, subject to rework and retest.5.4.4.2 If the imperfection is judged as not fit for use, the tube shall be rejected, but may be reconditioned and retested providingthe wall thickness requirements are met. To be accepted, retested materi
47、al shall meet the original electric test requirements.5.4.4.3 If the imperfection is explored to the extent that it can be identified, and the pipe is determined to be fit for use, thematerial may be accepted without further testing providing the imperfection does not encroach on minimum wall thickn
