    STD.DIN EN 2A7-2-ENGL 1557 MM 275444 0707858 28T Ml DEUTSCHE NORM August 1997 Approval testing of welders - Fusion welding DIN Part 1: Steel DIN (includes Amendment At : 1997) English version of DIN EN 267-1:.1902 + A1 : 1997 EN 287-1 ICS 25.160.10 Supersedes April 1992 edition, Descriptors: Welding, approval testing of welders. Priifung von Schweifiem - Schmelzschweifien - Teil 1: Stahle (enthait Anderung At : 1997) European Standard EN 287-1 : 1992 + A1 : 1997 has the status of a DIN Standard. A comma is used as the decimal marker. National foreword This standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 121. The responsible German body involved in the preparation of this standard was the NormenausschuB SchweiBtechnik (Welding Standards Committee). Itshould be noted that the 1992 edition of the present standardis identical to the 1994 edition of international ‘Standard ISO 9606-1. Once the latter has been revised in substance, it will be adopted as a European Standard (.¢. as EN ISO 9606-1) and will thus supersede EN 287-1, General ‘The aim of this standard is to ensure that the approval testing of welders is performed under the same conditions and using the same types of test piece, irrespective of where such tests are held. By passing the test as specified here, a welder demonstratas that he is adequately qualified to be employed for the fusion ‘welding of steel in industry within the scope specified in this standard. The standard thus provides a basis for mutual recognition of welder approval test certificates by the badias responsible for the various fields of application. Examiners and examining bodies ‘This standard does not provide information on examiners and examining bodies involved in the approval testing of welders since these are indicated in the relevant legal regulations, spacialized standards, codes of practice, or technical delivery conditions. Currently, the following persons and bodies are recognized as being competent for the approval testing of welders: a) welding training and testing institutes; b) welding training institutes: ©) examination boards of the Deutscher Verband fur SchweiBtechnik (German Welding Association); 4) technical inspection associations (UV); ©) Amt far Arbeltsschutz Hamburg; 9) Staatliche Technische Uberwachung Hessen; 49) Deutsche Bahn AG (German Railways); th) Germanischer Lloyd; |) testing and inspection bodies accredited by federal or Land authorities; i) welding engineers, accredited on the basis of legal regulations, codes of practice or standards.

Its however recommended that, for a transitional period, such certificates be supplemented by the material designations and nomenclature as used in the present standard. On the expiry of these certificates, but not later than two years following publication of this standard, new certificates have to be issued, which may involve the welding of further test pieces by the welder concerned {since the scope of the new certificates differs ‘somewhat from those iseued hitherto on the basis of DIN EN 287-1). Job knowledge test Welders who apply for approval in Germany are required to take the job knowledge test detailed in Annex D. Welders who are employed in Germany and have nol passed such a test will be at least required to demonstrate that they have some knowledge in occupational safety and accident prevention, ‘The DIN Standards corresponding to the Intemational Standards referred to in clause of the EN areas follows: ISO Standard DIN Standard 180.857 DIN 1910-1 and DIN 1910-2, and DIN ISO 857") Isogsso DIN 8575-1 Iso3ss1 DIN 8556-1 180.4063 DIN EN 24063 1806947 DINEN ISO 6947 ‘Amendments In comparison with the April 1992 edition, the following amendments have bean made: '@) Further welding positions have been included (cf. subclause 5.7). ) The specifications for additional specimens (subclause 8.2) have been deleted. ‘) The standard has been editiorially revised and references to standards have been updated.

The quality of work involved in welding highly depends on the skill of the welder. The ability of the welder to follow verbal or written instructions and testing of his skill are therefore important factors in ensuring the quality of the welded product. Testing of skill to this standard depends on welding procedures in which uniform rules and test conditions are compled with and standard test pieces are used. This standard applies to processes where the welder's skill has a significant influence on weld quality, ‘This standard is intended to provide a basis for the mutual recognition by examining bodies for approval relating to the welder's competence in the various fields of application. Tests shall be carried out in accordance with this standard unless more severe tests are specified in the relevant application standard. ‘The test may be used to approve either 4 welding procedure or a welder provided that all the relevant require ments (¢.g. test piece dimensions) are satisfied (see EN 288-3). ‘The welder’s skill and job knowledge continue to be approved only ifthe welder is involved in welding work with reasonable continuity within the range of approval All new approvals are to be in accordance with this standard from the date of its publication. However, this standard does not invalidate previous welder approvals made to former national standards or specifications, providing the intent of the technical requirements is satisfied and the previous approvals are relevant to the application and production work on which they are to be employed. ‘Also, where additional tests have to be carried out to make the approval technically equivalent, it is only necessary to carry out the additional tests on a test piece which should be prepared in accordance with this standard, Consideration of previous approvals to former national standards or specifications should be at the enquiry/ contracting stage and agreed between the contracting parties. 1 Scope This standard specifies essential requirements, ranges of approval, test conditions, acceptance requirements ‘and certification for the approval testing of the weider’s performance for the welding of steel. A recommended format for the certificate of approval testing is given in Annex B. During the approval test the welder should be required to show adequate practical experience and job knowledge (which need not be checked mandatorily) of the welding processes, materials and safety requirements for which he is to be approved; information on these aspects Is givan in Annex D. This standard is applicable when a welder approval test is required by the purchaser, by inspection authorities or by other organizations, This standard applies to the approval testing of waldars for the fusion welding of steel. The welding processes referred to inthis standard include those fusion welding processes which are designated ‘as manual or partly mechanized welding, This standard does not cover fully mechanized and automatic welding processes (see 5.2) ‘This standard covers approval testing of welders for work on semi-finished and finished products made from the wrought, forged or cast material grades listed in 5.4. ‘Tho certificate of approval testing is issued under the sole responsibilty of the examiner or examining body. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications, These normative references are cited at the appropriate placesin the text and the publications arelisted hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to oF revisions of any of these publications apply to this European ‘Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

When welding parent metals from two different groups which do not give approval to each other according to tables 4 and 5 (sae 6.4), an approval for the combination as a separate group is required. ‘When the filler metal is dissimilar to the parent metal group, an approval for that combination of parent metal group and fillar metal is required, except when permitted by tables 4 and 5. 5.4.2 Steel groups for parent metal 5.4.2.1 General For the comparison of steel groups for the approval of welders and welding procedure testing according to EN 288-3, see Annex A. 6.4.2.2 Group W 01 Low-carbon unalloyed (carbon-manganesa) steels and/or low alloyed steels. This group also includes fine- grained structural steel with a yiold strength, Ry < 360 N/mm2, 8.4.2.3 Group W 02 Chromium-molybdenum (GrMo) and/or chromium-molybdenum-vanadium (CrMoV} creep-resisting steels. 5.4.2.4 Group W 03 Normalized, quenched and tempered, thermomechanically treated fine-grained structural stee!s with a yield strength, R,, greater than 360 N/mm?, as well as similarly welded nickel steels with a nickel content of 2% to 5%. 5.4.2.5 Group W 04 Forritic or martensitic stainless steels with a chromium content of 12% to 20%. 6.4.2.8 Group W 11 Stainless ferritic-austenitic and austenitic stainless chromium-nickal (CrNi) steels. 5.5 Consumables 5.5.1 General Itis assumed that in most approval tests the filer metal wll be similar to the parent metal.

Angles of slope and rotation for straight welds in the welding positions shall be in accordance with 180 6947. The positions and angles usedin the approval test shali be based on the same tolerances as used in production, 6 Range of approval for welder 6.1 General ‘As a general rule, the test piece approves the welder nat only for the conditions used in the test, but also for all joints which are considered easier to weld. The range of approval for each type of test is given in the relevant ‘Subciauses and tables. In these tables, the range of approval is indicated in the same line, 6.2 Welding process Normally, each test approves one process. A change of process requires a new approval test. However, itis possible for a welder to be approved for more than one welding process by a single test or by two separate tests to be used to cover a multi-process joint. For example, in a case where approval is required for a single-side butt joint with the root to be welded by TIG (141) without backing and to be filled by metal-are welding with covered electrode (111), the welder may be approved by either of the following routes: a) successful completion of an approval test simulating the multi-process joint, i.e. the root run welded by TIG (141) without backing, subsequent runs or layers welded by metal-arc welding with covered electrode (111) within the limits of the range of approval for the particular welding process; 'b) successful completion of separate relevant approval tests, one for TIG (141) without backing for the root run end a separate test forthe fll by metal-arc welding with covered electrode (111) with backing or welded from both sides with or without gouging. 6.3. Joint types Depending on the test piece, the range of welds for which the welder is approved is shown in table 3; the following criteria are applicable: a) approval for butt welds in pipes covers approval for butt welds in plate; ) approval for butt welds in plate in all relevant positions covers approval for butt welds in pipes having an outside diameter = 500 mm, unless item c) below also applies; (}_approval for butt welds in plate welded in the flat (PA) or horizontal (PC) position covers approval for butt welds in pipes of outside diameter > 150mm wolded in the same positions; cf. table 7; 4) welding from one side without backing covers approval for welds from one side with backing and welds from both sides with and without gouging; 2) welding in plate or pipes with backing covers approvel for welds made from both sides, but not welds ‘without backing; ) approval for butt welds covers approval for fillet welds for similar welding conditions; Copyright by the DIN Deutsches Institut Fur Normung E V Wed Jul 08 09:22:22 1988 STD.DIN EN 2A7-1-ENGL 1997 MM 277444L O707907 O12 Me Page 8 EN 287-1 : 1992 + At: 1997 PA Flat : PC Horizontal PQ Vertical downwards PF Vertical upwards a) Butt wolds Ae PB.
