1. SCOPE & PURPOSE

This procedure is intended to ensure that the nominal composition of the alloy
components have been correctly supplied and installed as specified. The testing methods
outlined in this procedure are intended to establish conformance with chemical
composition of major alloying elements, for the wetted parts of the pump and other
equipment.

PMI testing shall be performed at a point of receipt of the raw materials in the SPPL shop.
Upon PMI test conducted, materials shall be marked as OK and be issued for processing.

The principle of the analysis shall follow x-ray fluorescence (XRF) method.

The following components and materials are exempt from PMI:

 Non-pressure components
 Components made from carbon steel or cast iron and filler metal for welding
carbon steel
 Rotating equipment internals and associated seal, lube oil, cooling water and
steam equipment and piping
 Valve internals (trim)
 Piping components in ASME B31.3 Category D Service or equivalent
 Electrodes & filler wires

2. EXTENT OF VERIFICATION

Basic Elements to be verified

3. RESPONSIBILITIES

The assigned QC in-charge of SPPL will be present during this activity and shall issue
certificate.

4. PROCEDURE

The metallic surface to be tested shall be free from all extraneous materials such as
scale, rust, dirt, grease, etc. which may interfere with the testing. All surfaces to be
examined shall be prepared by light grinding to ensure good surface contact.

The equipment shall be connected to the power source after ensuring the correct
voltage. The electrode shall be checked for its cleanliness and sharp tip; otherwise the
electrode shall be properly cleaned or replaced. The basic electrode is copper, which is
used for all analysis, however for identification of copper in metallic material, a silver
electrode shall be used in place of the copper electrode.

The equipment shall then be standardized with sample and procedures as given by the
manufacturer. After successful standardization the equipment shall be calibrated by
checking the values of the standard samples with reference to the job.

The readings obtained shall be compared and the results noted in the report format as
attached.

5. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA

Materials shall contain the amount of alloying elements specified in the material
specification. Alloys, including castings, shall be acceptable if the alloying elements are
each within 10% of the specified range of values.

Welds with consumables that match, or nearly match, the base metal composition shall
be within ±12.5% of the ranges allowed in ASME Section IIC for each element.

For dissimilar metal alloy welds (other than weld overlays), the effects of dilution from
the different base metals and the filler metal shall be taken into account for
determining the nominal as- deposited weld metal composition.

6. MARKING

Paint marking shall be done with the letters ‘PMI’ using a water insoluble material
that contains no harmful substance, such as metallic pigments, lead, zinc, sulfur,
mercury, chlorides or other halogens, which would attack or harmfully affect austenitic or
nickel alloy steels at ambient or elevated temperature.

Pipe: one mark, 75 mm from one end on the outer surface of the pipe.

Welds: adjacent to the welders mark on the weld.

Fittings and Forgings: adjacent to the manufacturers marking.
