Certification Process
- Welding of test specimens following WPS (preliminary welding procedure specification prepared in accordance with ISO 15614)
- Application of quality level of imperfections B in fusion-welded joints (Quality level B corresponds to the highest requirement on the finished weld in accordance with ISO 5817)
- Certification by TUV Cyprus – PF position – thickness of plate 10 mm (butt weld – full penetration)
- Certification by TUV Cyprus – H-L045 position – pipe diameter 168 mm, thickness 8 mm (butt weld – full penetration)
- Test of job knowledge in accordance with ISO 9606 (includes questions on the matters related to the welding process used in qualification test of welders)
