5  Essential variables and range of qualification
5.1  General
The qualification of brazers, (see 5.3) and brazing operators, (see 5.4) is based on essential variables
in accordance with Table 1. For each essential variable, a range of qualification is defined and brazing
outside that range of qualification requires a new qualification test.
Table 1 — Essential variables for brazer and brazing operator qualification
Essential variable Brazer Brazing Operator
brazing process X X
product type X -
type of joint X -
parent material group(s) X -
brazing filler metal type X -
brazing filler application X X

outside pipe diameter and
overlap length)
filler metal flow direction X -
type of equipment - X
NOTE There can be other variables that the manufacturer deems to be essential in certain applications,
e.g. constraint on access for the torch, purging gas, etc. which need separate qualification (see Annex D).
The brazer or brazing operator who undertakes the brazing procedure test satisfactorily in accordance
with this document is qualified according to the relevant national/international standard being applied,
provided that the relevant testing requirements of that standard are met.
5.2  Brazing process
Each qualification test qualifies only one brazing process (see Clause 1). A change of brazing process
requires a new qualification test.
When applicable the furnace atmosphere is limited to the same type of atmosphere, e.g. reducing or
inert, carburizing or decarburizing, and hydrogen or disassociated ammonia as used in the test.
For brazing processes where fuel gases apply the qualification is limited to the same type of fuel gas
and flame as used in the test.

5.3.3  Parent material group(s)
In order to minimize the number of brazer qualification tests, parent materials are assigned to
M-number groupings (see Annex E).
The parent material used in the brazer qualification test qualifies the brazer for brazing of all other
parent materials within the same M-number grouping – see Table 4.
Parent materials that do not appear in Annex E, require separate qualification and only qualify that
material.

5.3.4  Filler metals and brazing filler application
The brazing filler metal type based on its class in accordance with ISO 17672, or other standards that
provide equivalent technical conditions, is qualifying for other filler metal types within the same class.
One filler metal form (for example, from preformed ring to paste) only qualifies for the same form.
A test with a flux classified in accordance with ISO 18496, or other standards that provide equivalent
technical conditions, only qualifies for brazing within that same classification.
The brazing filler metal application qualifies for other filler metal application in accordance with
Table 5.
Table 5 — Range of qualification for brazing filler application
Test piece brazing filler application Range of qualification
Face fed Face fed, Pre-placed
Pre-placed Pre-placed
NOTE  “Face fed”, also known as “applied to the mouth of the joint”, can be manually or mechanically
fed while brazing.
5.3.5  Dimensions
The brazer qualification test of brazed joints is based on the material thickness, outside pipe diameters
and overlap length. The ranges of qualification are specified in Table 6.
For dissimilar material thicknesses of test pieces, the range of qualification is based on the thickness of
each plate (or pipe).
It is not intended that material thicknesses or outside pipe diameters should be measured precisely, but
rather the general philosophy behind the values given in Table 6 should be applied.
For test pieces of different outside pipe diameters and parent material thicknesses, the brazer is
qualified for:
— the smallest to the largest diameter (see Table 6);
— the thinnest to the thickest parent material thickness (see Table 6).
Table 6 — Range of qualification for dimensions
Dimensions Test piece Range of qualification

Material thickness, t (mm) 3 to 10 1,5 to 2t

Overlap length, L (mm) L ≤ 1,25L
NOTE  If material thicknesses differ (see Figure F.5), the lower limit is based on the thinnest and
the upper limit is based on the thickest thickness.

If applicable.
5.3.6  Filler metal flow direction
The brazing of one filler metal flow direction qualifies for other flow directions in accordance with
Table 7.
For personnel qualification, an angular deviation of maximum ± 15° from filler metal flow positions
applies.

The brazing of test pieces shall be witnessed by the examiner or examining body. The testing shall be
verified by the examiner or examining body.
The test pieces shall be marked with the identification of the examiner and the brazer before
brazing starts.
The examiner or examining body may stop the test if the brazing conditions are not correct or if it
appears that the brazer or brazing operator does not have the skill to fulfil the requirements.
6.2  Brazing conditions
The qualification test of brazers and brazing operators shall follow a pBPS or BPS prepared in
accordance with ISO/DIS 17779. The brazing time for the test piece shall correspond to the working
time under usual production conditions.
The brazer or brazing operator shall prepare the parts (e.g. mechanical preparation, cleaning) or accept
the preparation, set up the heating means and conduct the necessary verification to carry out the test in
accordance with the pBPS or BPS.
NOTE It can be of value to otherwise imitate production conditions for the qualification test as far as
possible.
