1. Scope of application
1.1 This procedure specifies the minim um requirem ents of positive m aterial identification (PMI)
for carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, nickel-based and cobalt-based alloy materials
used in valve fabrication.
1.2 This procedure is applied to semi-Processed and finished products analysis.

2. Definitions
2.1 Positive m aterial identification (PMI)— a procedure used to verify both the type of material
and chemical composition of an inspection sam ple.
2.2 Inspection batch -- except for tighten parts, one inspection batch is a group of
components of same heat number or heat treatment batch, then a sample will be
selected from this batch. For tighten parts, a batch is a group of similar com ponents in
terms of alloy m aterial and size.
2.3 100% Positive M aterial Identification -- Each individual component and welding slot will be
tested.
2.4 Representative Sampling -- PMI test one or more sample from a inspection batch
random ly to determ ine the acceptability of this batch.
2.5 Check (instrum ent performance) -- PM I a known standard alloy to verify equipment
performance.
2.6 Pertaining to Elements
2.6.1 Specified elem ent -- an elem ent controlled to a specified range, maxim um or minimum , in
accordance with the requirem ents of the product specification.
2.6.2 Intentionally added unspecified element – an element added in controlled am ounts at the
option of the producer to obtain desirable characteristics.
2.6.3 Residual element – a specified or unspecified elem ent, not intentionally added, originating
in raw materials, refractories, or air.
2.6.4 Trace element – a residual element that may occur in very low concentrations, generally
less than 0.01% .
2.7 Pertaining to analysis
2.7.1 Cast or heat analysis – applies to chemical analyses representative of a heat of steel as
reported to the purchaser and determined by analyzing a test sample, preferably obtained
during the pouring of the steel, for the elements designated in a specification.
2.7.2 Product analysis -- a chemical analysis of the sem ifinished or finished product, usually for
the purpose of determining conformance to the specification requirem ents, The range of
the specified com position applicable to product analysis is normally greater than that

Page 4 of 17
 Doc. N o.:NW S6995
Positive Material Identification Procedure Rev. N o.: 2012B
applicable to heat analysis to order to take into account deviations associated with
analytical reproducibility and the heterogeneity of the steel.
2.7.3 Product analysis tolerances – a permissible variation over the m aximum lim it or under the
minimum lim it of a specified elem ent and applicable only to product analyses, not cast or
heat analyses.

4. Sam pling requirem ents— Random sam pling
4.1 The alloy and stainless steel pressure-containing parts (body/bonnet/cover) shall be PMI

verified on at least five pieces or 10 ％ from each heat or lot. If the test on specimen is

successful then outstanding products in this lot can be accepted. If the representative
sample failed then all rem ained m aterials in this lot shall be PMI examined one by one.
4.2 The alloy and stainless steel trim material, welding overlay deposit and welding slot shall

be PMI verified on at least five sample or 10 ％ from each lot. If the test on specimen is

successful then outstanding products in this lot can be accepted. If the representative
sample failed then all rem ained materials in this lot shall be rejected.
4.3 The alloy and stainless steel bolting shall be PMI verified on a representative sam ple,
based on supplier’s quality history. Acceptance criteria can be referred to 4.2.
4.4 Forged pressure m aterials should be inspected at least 10% of total products. Inspection
method can be referred to 4.1.
4.5 Special requirem ent: 100% PM I test when purchase order required, include but not limited
to experim ent below:
--All alloy and stainless steel pressure-containing parts, i.e. each individually body and
bonnet/closure/cover;
--All alloy and stainless steel pressure-containing welds;
--All alloy and stainless steel internals;

Positive Material Identification Procedure Rev. N o.: 2012B
--All welding overlay deposits.

5. Requirem ents of sam pling & inspection location

5.1 This procedure is applied to product analysis. If examination not available due to
shape/size or anything else, then sam ple can be made to be performed other analysis
method. Sam ple location shall avoid hole, crack, loosen, burr or other defects.
5.1.1 Solid part sample shall be taken from the midpoint of product surface and center.
5.1.2 Hollow part sample shall be taken from the midpoint of product inner and outer surface.
5.1.3 W hole size extending part sample shall be taken from m idpoint of product surface and
center.
5.1.4 Failed parts sample can be taken from ruptured position.

5.2 Requirement of product analyzed position ： The product analyzed position shall com ply
with clause 5.1; waive surface painting, dust, damp and other pollution. The
casting/forging shall be grinded to expose m aterial m etal surface. Because the
repeatability and steel asymmetry deviation, product analysis shall be taken 3 points at
least in the sam pling.

6. Acceptance criterion
6.1 The acceptance criterion shall be according to requirem ent in specification, i.e m aterial
standard, purchase specification, order special requirement etc. The sequence of
acceptance criterion is as order requirement, then purchasing requirem ent then material
industry specification.
6.2 Tolerances
6.2.1 Tolerances of the inspection: accuracy of the PMI-M aster as per Annex C.
6.2.2 Product analysis tolerances: since analysis re-appearance discrepancy and steel un-
sym metry property, therefore, the exam ined scope of chemical component in product
analysis may be larger than the scope in cast or heat analysis. Unless m aterial
specification allowed to certain item s, product analysis is not able to be verified if it
comply w ith specified cast or heat analysis. Product analysis tolerances follow s single
item m aterial specification or general requirem ent specification, which could be referred
to annexed table 1/2/3.
6.2.3 If the test samples taken for the heat analysis are lost, inadequate, or not representation
of the heat. A product analysis of the sem ifinished or finished product may be used to
establish the heat analysis. If a product analysis is m ade to establish the heat analysis.
The product analysis shall meat the specified limits for heat analysis and product analysis
tolerances described do not apply.
6.2.4 Analysis tolerance applies only to product analysis and becomes meaningful only when

Page 6 of 17
 Doc. N o.:NW S6995
Positive Material Identification Procedure Rev. N o.: 2012B
the heat analysis of an elem ent falls close to one of the specified lim its.

6.3 Unspecified element or residual elem ent ： Unspecified elem ent or residual elements are

allowed to exist in the com ponent analysis report from supplier. The acceptance criteria
of unspecified elem ent or residual elem ent should follow purchasing specification. If
purchasing specification does not specify, then m aterial standard or general requirement
standard can be referred.

 Doc. N o.:NW S6995
Positive Material Identification Procedure Rev. N o.: 2012B
D4.1 To avoid the instrum ent fall off on the ground, we should be also sheathe the buckle on
my wrist.
D4.2 Never point your instrument at yourself or anyone else when the shutter is open.
D4.3 Exposure to radiation is dangerous.
D4.3.1 Extremity exposure from a properly used NITON XRF instrument will be less than
100mmREM per year, (1.0 m Sv per year) even if the instrum ent is used as m uch as 2000
hours per year, with the shutter open and the tube energized continuously.
D4.3.2 Do not hold the instrum ent near the window during testing. Never point your instrument at
yourself or anyone else when the shutter is open or closed.
D4.3.3 Instrument testing -“N O-OFF” mechanical test
The instrument emits no radiation at all unless the X-ray tube is turned on, and virtually no
radiation with the x-ray tube on and the internal shutter closed, as during calibration.
Instrum ent test shall be conducted the first M onday of each m onth . The technician will
need to stand in front of a mirror and the point the device at the mirror then activate the
device. The 3 warning lights on the instrum ent will blink on and off w henever the x-ray
tube is on, and those lights will continue to blink as long as the x-ray tube is on. The
technician will look to see if the shutter over the source opens and closes. If the shutter
opens and closed the test is com pleted. The technician will log the test on the log sheet
for the device as “PASS”. Should the shutter not open or close turn the devise off and log
on the log sheet for the device “Failed”. The device is to be taken out of services.
D4.3.4 In the highly unlikely event that the x-ray tube remains on when the trigger is not
depressed, disconnect the battery pack imm ediately to turn off the x-ray, and call local
Authorized N ITON Service Center, and request shipping instrument to return for repair.
D4.3.5 Radiation Leak Test
NEW AY shall be entrust the radiation leak test to G uoH uan (Su Zhou) Testing Co. Ltd.,
and specify the radiation leak test shall be performed every six m onths. G uoHuan will
assay the “radiation leak test” and send a certificate if the device passes the test. If the
device fails the test the device is to be taken out of service and Authorized N ITON
Service Center is to be notified that the device has failed the “radiation leak test” and
request shipping instructions to return for repair.
