(Specification)Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, Manganese-Silicon
Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, Manganese-Silicon
ABSTRACT
This specification covers manganese-silicon carbon steel plates for use in welded boilers and other pressure vessels. Plates under this specification are produced in two grades. The steel shall be killed and shall conform to the fine austenitic grain size requirement. Tension test shall be made to conform to the requirements specified.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers manganese-silicon carbon steel plates for use in welded boilers and other pressure vessels.
1.2 Plates under this specification are produced in two grades. The specified minimum the yield strength decreases on thicknesses over 1 in. [25 mm].
1.3 The maximum thickness of plates is limited only by the capacity of the composition to meet the specified mechanical property requirements; however, current practice normally limits the maximum thickness of plates furnished under this specification to 8 in. [200 mm].
1.4 For plates produced from coil, the additional requirements, including additional testing requirements and the reporting of additional test results, of Specification A 20/A 20M apply.
1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.

3.1Material3.1 Plates supplied to this materialproduct specification shall conform to Specification A 20/A20M. These
requirements outline /A 20M, which outlines the testing and retesting methods and procedures, permissible variations in
dimensions, and mass, quality and repair of defects, marking, loading, etc. and so forth.
3.2 SpecificationA 20/A 20M also establishes the rules for the basis of purchase ordering information that should be complied
with when purchasing materialplates to this specification.
3.3 In addition to the basic requirements of this specification, certain supplementary requirements are available whenwhere
additional control, testing, or examination is required to meet end use requirements. These include:
3.3.1Vacuum treatment,
3.3.2Additional or special tension testing,
3.3.3Impact testing, and
3.3.4Nondestructive examination.
3.4 The purchaser is referred to the listed supplementary requirements in this specification and to the detailed requirements in
Specification A 20/A 20M.
3.5Coiled product is excluded from qualification to this specification until it is decoiled, leveled, and cut to length. Plate
produced from coil means plate that has been cut to individual lengths from a coiled product and is furnished without heat
treatment. The processor decoils, levels, cuts to length, and marks the product. Except as allowed by Section 6 in Specification
A20/A20M, the processor is responsible for performing and certifying all tests, examinations, repairs, inspections, and operations
not intended to affect the properties of the material. For plate produced from coils, the results of the tests performed shall be
