    Uploaded by

    mohd as shahiddin jafri
    This document provides procedures for handling and storing welding consumables like electrodes. It details responsibilities for controlling consumables, general requirements for storage and purchasing, and specific procedures for baking electrodes prior to use. Electrodes must be baked at certain temperatures for set durations then held at lower temperatures until use. Unused electrodes can be rebaked up to twice, marked each time, before being discarded on the third return. The document also includes a table specifying baking temperatures and a flow chart outlining the baking and control process.

    1.0 SCOPE
    1.1 This procedure details the administrative and technical controls for storage, issuing
    and return of welding consumable.

    2.0 APPLICATION
    2.1 This procedure applies to all STSSB operations and STSSB Subcontractor’s
    operations during work performed on the PETRONAS CHEMICAL ETHYLENE (M)
    SDN BHD for shop fabrication and site installation.

    3.0 DEFINITIONS
     STSSB - SCIENCE TECH SOLUTIONS Sdn Bhd.
     Subcontractor - All companies and their employees acting under subcontract to STS.
     WPS - Welding Procedure Specification.
     AWS - American Welding Society

    4.0 RESPONSIBILITY
    4.1 A designated Consumable Controller shall be responsible for the storage and issue
    of all welding consumable.
    4.2 Relevant supervision in conjunction with the welding, QC Inspector shall be
    responsible for determining the size and type of consumables used in accordance
    with approved WPS.
    4.3 QC Inspector shall check the consumable issue log on a regular basis.

    5.0 GENERAL
    5.1 Only consumable as specified in WPS shall be purchased for use. Change of
    consumable type or brand shall require approval by PCESB and STSSB QA/QC
    Department. Such approval will be given verbally after confirmation that Third
    Party Approval body approves the consumable brand in question.

    5.2 Any consumable which is unmarked, be it electrode, wire, gas or flux or showing
    signs of damage or deterioration shall be discarded.
    5.3 All covered electrodes shall be identifiable up to the time of issue by means of AWS
    classification end stamping or manufacturer end colour coding. If marking is
    destroyed by baking or handling, the electrode shall be discarded.
    5.4 Consumable Controller shall ensure that all deliveries of consumable are
    accompanied by relevant test certificates. On receipt of material the batch number
    on the packaging shall be checked against the batch number on the test certificate. If
    everything is in order, the test cert. shall be passed to QC Dept. for filling.

    6.0 STORAGE AND RELEASE


    6.1 All welding consumables shall be stored in a clean and dry area in accordance with
    the manufacture’s instructions prior to use. Storage of consumables shall in a
    controlled access area and unauthorised personal shall be prohibited from entering.
    The Consumable Controller shall ensure segregation of different type of welding
    consumable in the welding consumable store.
    6.2 Covered electrodes are supplied in sealed boxes displaying manufacturer’s
    identification markings and shall be stored unopened until use.
    6.3 For low hydrogen electrodes, the Consumables Controller shall issue only
    consumables intended for immediate use. Date, welder number, type, size, quantity
    issued and quantity returned in a consumable issue log and sign off by the welding
    supervisor, welding foremen or QC Inspector. As a guideline, approximately 40 to
    60 electrodes will be issued at one time.
    6.4 Consumable issue log shall be available at electrode baking for review by inspector
    and auditor.

    7.0 ELECTROD BAKING AND HOLDING


    7.1 All low hydrogen covered electrodes shall be baked prior to issue in accordance
    with manufacturer’s recommendations as detailed in Table 1. The Consumable
    Controller shall record the electrode batch number in the baking record log. After

    AND STORAGE PROCEDURE Page : 5 of 9

    baking, electrodes shall be held at manufacturer recommended temperature in the


    holding oven as detailed in Table 1.

    7.2 Differed electrode can be bake on same oven but need to segregate into level inside
    baking oven.

    8.0 USE OF WELDING CONSUMABLE


    8.1 Covered electrodes shall be placed in welder’s heated quivers immediately after
    issue for use in the field. Quivers shall be in good working order and shall be able to
    maintain a temperature approximately 75 C while welding is in progress.
    8.2 Quivers permitted only 1 type of electrode only same requirement for filler metal
    handling.
    8.3 Filler metal used for fit0up and welding shall be free from contaminate and rush or
    otherwise shall be discharges.

    9.0 REBAKING OF ELECTRODES


    9.1 Electrodes not used for the day shall be returned to the Consumable Controller for
    rebaking as per Table 1. Electrodes shall only be rebaked twice with marking to
    indicate numbers of return. Electrodes returned the third time should be discarded
    immediately.
    9.2 Heat resistant paint shall be used to mark electrodes with one circle for each
    returned for rebaking as close as possible to the end without obscuring
    manufacturers colour coding. Heat resistant paint shall not contaminate the electrode
    covering. Any electrodes returned for a third time to the Consumable Controller (i.e.
    with the rebaking mark present) shall be discarded.
