    For gas metal-arc welding processes, if the qualification test coupon thickness is less than 1/2 inches, the production weld thickness can be up to 1.1 times the qualification thickness; for thicker coupons, refer to tables QW-451.1 or QW-451.2. Miniature boiler pressure vessels must be hydrostatically tested at three times the maximum working pressure and can have a minimum metal temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit during testing if the shell thickness is 3/8 inches or less. Miniature boilers must have water gages at least 1 inch above the lowest water level and a blowoff connection of at least 1/2 inch diameter, and those over 12 inches in diameter require at

    For the short-circuiting transfer mode of the gas metal-arc process, when the qualification test

    coupon
    thickness is less than 1/2”, an increase in thickness beyond 1.1 times that of the qualification test
    coupon. For thicknesses of ½” & greater, use Table QW-451.1 or Table QW-451.2, as applicable

    miniature boiler pressure vessel shall be inspected while being tested at a hydrostatic pressure
    equal to three times the maximum allowable working pressure.

    A minimum metal temperature of 60°F is permitted during the hydrostatic test in

    PMB-21.1, provided the shell thickness is 3/8 in. or less .

    Miniature boilers shall have the lowest visible part of the water gage located at least 1 in. above
    the lowest permissible water level specified by the Manufacturer.

    Each miniature boiler shall be equipped with a blowoff connection, not less than NPS 1/2”.

    miniature boiler exceeding 12 in internal diameter shall be fitted with not less than three brass
    washout plugs of 1 in
