FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Third Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Wrought Steel Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical Engineering Division
Council.
This standard was first published in 1962 and subsequently revised in 1982-and f995. While reviewing this
standard, in the light of experience gained during these years, the Committee decided to revise it to bring in line
with the present practices being followed by the Indian industry and owxseasstandards
of steel plates for pressure
vessels used at moderate and low temperature.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2:1960
Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised). The number of significant places retained in the rounded off
v4ue should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

,,
( Third Revision)
3.1 Micro-Alloying
Elements Elements, such as
niobium, boron, vanadium and titanium added singly
or in combination to obtain higher strength to weight
ratio combined with better toughness, formability and
weldability as compared to unalloyed steel of similar
strength level.
1 SCOPE
This standard covers the requirements of steel plates
for fabrication of fusion welded pressure vessels for
moderate and low temperature services with room
temperature and elevated temperature properties.

NOTES
1 Fur Grades R220, R 260, R275, R355 Carbon content over the maximum specified shall be increased by 0.03 percent for plates over
12 mm thickness.
2 Microalloying elements Nb and V maybe added to Grades R220 & R260, subject to mutual agreement between purchaser and manufacturer/supplier.
3 For product thicknesses< 6 mm, a minimum Mn of 0.6 percent is permitted.
4 The minimum Al (total) content may not be applicable, if Nb, Ti or V either singly or in combination are additionally used for Nitrogen
binding.
5 If only Al is used for nitrogen binding, a ratio Al~ ? 2 shall apply.
6 Cr+Cu+Mo shall not exceed 0.45 percent.
7 Elements not listed in the table shall not be intentional y added to the steel without agreement of the purchaser.
8 Ctoser limits of composition maybe agreed to between the supplier and the purchaser.
9 Whenever micro alloying elements are added for achieving the strength, maximum carbon equivalent shall not exceed 0.50 for steels
used for welding.
10 Carbon equivalent (CE) based on ladle analysis= C + Mn/6 + \Cr+Mo+V)/5 + (Ni+Cu)/1 5.

I Impact test shall beat any one temperature as mutually agreed.
2 Impact testis optional for Grades R220 and R260.
3 The orientation of Impact test specimen shall be longitudinal to the rolling direction for R220, R260, R275, R355 grades and
transverse to the rolling direction for H235, H265, 11295and H355 grades.
4 Stringent impact test temperature and values can be mutually agreed.
5 For thickness >100 mm, Yield stress to be mutually agreed.
12.3.3 Orientation
The orientation
of impact test specimen shall be
longitudinal to the rolling direction for R quality
grades and transverse to the rolling direction for H
quality grades. Notch axis shall be perpendicular to
the rolled surface.

After inspection and approval, if so desired by the
purchaser, each plate shall be coated with one coat of
boiler linseed oil or a suitable rust preventive material,
as agreed to between the supplier and the purchaser.

12.4 Re-test
12.4.1 If a test does not give the specified results, two
additional tests shall be carried out at random on the
same lot. Both retests shall conform to the requirements
of this standard; otherwise, the lot shall be rejected.
