1. GENERAL
1.1 Intent
This specification covers the minimum requirements for the procedures of inspection and tests
to be carried out by Vendor, and for the acceptance standards of Purchaser pertinent to such
procedures.
1.2 Scope
1.2.1 This specification applies to shop inspection and tests of tanks, towers, shell-And-tube
type heat exchangers, etc. (hereinafter referred to as vessels) fabricated in accordance
with Engineering Specification UBE-D-102 "Pressure Vessels” and UBE-E-102 "Heat
Exchangers".
1.2.2 Where requirements in this specification are not acceptable by Vendor, suggested
alternatives shall promptly be referred to Purchaser for approval before proceeding
with the work.
1.3 Referenced Codes and Standards
The codes and standards listed below and referred to in this specification, to the extent
specified herein, form a part of this specification. Such codes and standards shall be of the
latest editions unless otherwise specified.
- ASME Section II : Material Specification
- ASME Section V : Non Destructive Examination
- ASME Section IX : Welding Qualification
- ASME Section VIII Div.1 or Div.2
- TEMA
- ASTM
1.4 Vendor's Inspection Procedure
Vendor shall submit a detailed procedure of the applicable inspection and tests required for the
-individual components and weldments of each vessel for Purchaser's approval.
1.5 Inspection by Purchaser
1.5.1 Purchaser and/or his designated representative shall have the right to witness
inspection and tests to be performed by Vendor, and to review Vendor's records and
data. Witnessing by Purchaser's inspector shall be performed at intermediate and/or
final states, depending on the design, fabrication and service of the vessels.
1.5.2 At any time curing fabrication is underway, Purchaser's inspector shall have free access
to any Vendors shop concerned with fabrication of the vessels. Vendor shall provide all
reasonable facilities necessary to satisfy Purchaser's inspector that the vessels are
being fabricated in accordance with the specifications.
1.5.3 Vendor shall notify Purchaser sufficiently in advance of the witnessed inspection and
test operations to permit Purchaser's inspector to arrive at Vendor's shop.
1.5.4 The term "Purchaser's inspector" in this specification shall also include inspectors of
client, inspectors of Government and/or his designated representative.
1.5.5 Inspection by Purchaser's inspector shall in no way relieve vendor of his responsibility
to meet all requirements of the purchase order.

2. INSPECTION AND TEST RECORDS
2.1 Records and Data Required
2.1.1 The complete records, as outlined in Par.2.1.2, of inspection and tests shall be supplied
for each vessel by Vendor to Purchaser after completion of all inspection and tests.
Vendor shall keep the inspection and test records for at least 5 years after shipment.
2.1.2 The complete records shall include (where applicable):
(1) As-built sketch or tabulation for identification of the materials showing the
location
(2) Mill test reports, including data of impact tests and records/certificates of non-
destructive examination required for the materials
(3) Records of production weld tests and welder's performance qualification
(4) Time-temperature charts of postweld heat treatment, and records of other heat
treatments
(5) Records/certificates of non-destructive examination, such as radiographic,
ultrasonic, magnetic-particle and liquid-penetrant examination
(6) Data/results of dimensional inspection
(7) Certificates of hydrostatic test, pneumatic test or other pressure tests with time-
pressure record charts
(8) Rubbing of nameplates
(9) Manufacturer's Data Report
(10) Orientation- check and thickness measurements for primary pressure retain in
parts
3. INSPECTION AND TEST ITEMS, PROCEDURES AND ACCEPTANCE STANDARDS
3.1 General
3.1.1 All inspection, examination and tests shall be in accordance with the applicable codes
and the following additional requirements unless otherwise specified.
3.1.2 Classification of vessel and welded joint category used herein are defined as shown in
Appendix 1.
3.1.3 Supplemental inspection and testing requirements that pertain to the individual classes
of vessels tabulated in Appendix 1 shall be as shown in Appendix 2.
3.1.4 Welding procedure qualifications shall be in accordance with appendix 3.
3.2 Inspection and Examination of Materials
3.2.1 Materials used for pressure-retaining parts including non-pressure parts which are
welded to pressure parts shall be furnished with mill test reports.
3.2.2 When examination is required, minimum examination of materials shall conform to the
methods and acceptance standards outlined in Table 1.
3.2.3 Materials for primary pressure-retaining parts to be divided into two or more, shall be
so marked by a suitable method that individual pieces of materials can be related back
to the mill test reports.

UBE GROUP.
3.2.4 Surfaces and edges of the materials shall be visually examined for freedom from
injurious defects, such as excessive surface flaw and lamination before the fabrication
proceeds.
3.3 Inspection of Welding
3.3.1 Beveled edges shall be smooth and uniform with dimensions conforming to the welding
procedure specifications. Edges to be ve1ded shall be free from cracks, laminations
and other defects that way adversely affect the welds.
3.3.2 Prior to start of welding of butted joints, edges shall be properly fit-up. Misalignment of
the edges shall be within the code tolerances.
3.3.3 For double welded joints, the backside of the joints shall be cleaned to sound metal
and assured that cracks, slag inclusions or other weld defects have been removed
before backside welding is started.
3.3.4 All welds and area adjacent to the welds shall be visually inspected after completion of
the welding on accessible interior and exterior surfaces. Visual inspection shall show
that the following requirements are met:
(1) Weld reinforcement shall be as required by the applicable codes.
(2) Internal weld protrusion shall not exceed 1.5 mm in height for single butt-
welded joints.
(3) Undercutting shall not exceed 0.3 mm in depth.
(4) Welds shall be free from overlap at the toe of the welds.
(5) Spatter, slag and scale shall be removed.
(6) Crater and jig marks shall be finished smoothly.
(7) No cracks, incomplete penetration and lack of fusion shall be present.
(8) The profile of fillet welds shall be uniform such that leg/throat length is regular
and the surface of welds is slightly convex.
3.3.5. Vessels subject to postweld heat treatment shall, prior to heat treatment, be carefully
inspected by visual and non-destructive methods for defects and checked for
dimensions so as to avoid welding repair after completion of the heat treatment.
3.4 Non-Destructive Examination of Welds
3.4.1 All welded vessels and heat exchangers shall be examined by radiography. The
Radiographic examination procedure shall be in accordance with requirements,
methods and acceptance standards outlined in Table 2 or ASME Section V Article 2.
3.4.2 The degree and extent to be radiographed shall be as indicated on Purchaser's
drawings.
3.4.3 When full radiography is required, butt-welded joints in nozzles with nominal nozzle
size exceeding 10 in. shall be radiographed on their entire length.
3.4.4 When spot radiography is required, each intersection of longitudinal and
circumferential welding seams in the shell and heads of the vessels shall be
radiographed.
3.5 Visual and Dimensional Inspection
3.5.1 Unless otherwise noted, tolerances for pressure vessels shall be in accordance with
Appendix 4.
3.5.2 Unless otherwise noted, "Tolerances for heat exchangers shall be in accordance with
Appendix 5.
