NOTES:

1. Preheat Temperature to be strictly followed for tacking also.

2. Interpass temperature limits shall be maintained atleast 30mm or 4T(whichever is min) on either side of the weld.

3. Prior to start of welding, a distance of 50 mm from the weld edges shall be throughly cleaned of any contaminants.

4. Interpass Temperature shall be controlled during welding.

5. This WPS is also applicable for Weld repair.

6. This WPS is applicable to the Piping classes as reflected in WPS Index.
