Fabricated using SAW (tandem arc), GTAW, FCAW welding processes. We also used Semi-automated circle SAW machine on the larger nozzles. CRO (Corrosion Resistant Overlay) was performed on all nozzle bores and faces. 30mm strip electrode was used for all LS and GS lane closures. All edges of cladding we mechanically stripped back prior to welding the backer material. Inspection performed PT, UT, MT, RT, PMI & Ferrite testing. The equipment required custom anchor bolt & chairs and we cut additional holes to match the existing foundation. Equipment was insulated, Pipe guides/Pipe supports were added, along with internal trays. Material was impact tested and PWHT performed.
