3、standard lists the necessary steps to assure the suitability of brazed components for critical applications. Althoughsuch applications vary widely, they have certain common considerations with respect to materials, design, manufacture,and inspection. It is the intent of this document to identify and

4、 explain these common considerations and the best tech-niques for dealing with them. It is beyond the scope of this document to provide specific details on these techniques,which the user must adapt to fit each particular application.iiAWS C3.3:2008International Standard Book Number: 978-0-87171-092

8、 classifications, and guides) of the AmericanWelding Society (AWS) are voluntary consensus standards that have been developed in accordance with the rules of theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI). When AWS American National Standards are either incorporated in, ormade part of, documents th

9、at are included in federal or state laws and regulations, or the regulations of other govern-mental bodies, their provisions carry the full legal authority of the statute. In such cases, any changes in those AWSstandards must be approved by the governmental body having statutory jurisdiction before

10、they can become a part ofthose laws and regulations. In all cases, these standards carry the full legal authority of the contract or other documentthat invokes the AWS standards. Where this contractual relationship exists, changes in or deviations from requirementsof an AWS standard must be by agree

11、ment between the contracting parties.AWS American National Standards are developed through a consensus standards development process that bringstogether volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus. While the AWS administers theprocess and establishes rules to promote

12、 fairness in the development of consensus, it does not independently test, evalu-ate, or verify the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards.AWS disclaims liability for any injury to persons or to property, or other damages of any nature whatsoever, wh

13、etherspecial, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or relianceon this standard. AWS also makes no guarantee or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any informationpublished herein.In issuing and making this standard availa

14、ble, AWS is neither undertaking to render professional or other services for oron behalf of any person or entity, nor is AWS undertaking to perform any duty owed by any person or entity to someoneelse. Anyone using these documents should rely on his or her own independent judgment or, as appropriate

15、, seek theadvice of a competent professional in determining the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances. It isassumed that the use of this standard and its provisions are entrusted to appropriately qualified and competent personnel.This standard may be superseded by the issuance of ne

16、w editions. Users should ensure that they have the latest edition.Publication of this standard does not authorize infringement of any patent or trade name. Users of this standard acceptany and all liabilities for infringement of any patent or trade name items. AWS disclaims liability for the infring

17、ement ofany patent or product trade name resulting from the use of this standard.Finally, the AWS does not monitor, police, or enforce compliance with this standard, nor does it have the power to do so.On occasion, text, tables, or figures are printed incorrectly, constituting errata. Such errata, w

18、hen discovered, are postedon the AWS web page (www.aws.org).Official interpretations of any of the technical requirements of this standard may only be obtained by sending a request,in writing, to the appropriate technical committee. Such requests should be addressed to the American Welding Society,A

LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126 (see Annex F).With regard to technical inquiries made concerning AWS standards, oral opinions on AWS standards may be rendered.These opinions are offered solely as a convenience to users of this standard

20、, and they do not constitute professionaladvice. Such opinions represent only the personal opinions of the particular individuals giving them. These individualsdo not speak on behalf of AWS, nor do these oral opinions constitute official or unofficial opinions or interpretations ofAWS. In addition,

21、oral opinions are informal and should not be used as a substitute for an official interpretation.This standard is subject to revision at any time by the AWS C3 Committee on Brazing and Soldering. It must bereviewed every five years, and if not revised, it must be either reaffirmed or withdrawn. Comm

22、ents (recommendations,additions, or deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this standard are required and should beaddressed to AWS Headquarters. Such comments will receive careful consideration by the AWS C3 Committee onBrazing and Soldering and the author of the comments

23、 will be informed of the Committees response to the comments.Guests are invited to attend all meetings of the AWS C3 Committee on Brazing and Soldering to express their commentsverbally. Procedures for appeal of an adverse decision concerning all such comments are provided in the Rules ofOperation o

24、f the Technical Activities Committee. A copy of these Rules can be obtained from the American WeldingSociety, 550 N.W.

ScopeThese recommended prac

33、tices encompass those proce-dures that should be followed in the design, manufacture,and examination of brazed joints for critical componentsin order to assure their reliability in service.The procedures recommended represent the best currentpractice and are necessary to the control of brazed jointq

34、uality. These practices are applicable to all products andbrazing processes. Whenever any or some of these prac-tices are omitted when producing critical components,the omission should be the result of a rational decision,not the result of a lack of knowledge of the best practice.This document is di

35、vided into clauses addressing mate-rials, design, manufacturing, and examination. Theseclauses are followed by Annex A, which presents a list ofinformative references; Annex B, which presents samplespecifications that are intended as guides for the prepara-tion of the users documents; Annex C, which

36、 presents adiscussion of brazing risk management; Annex D, whichpresents a table relating to the quantification of the scopeand magnitude of braze-induced discontinuities; AnnexE, which presents systematic criteria for design of brazedcomponents; and Annex F, which presents guidelines forthe prepara

There-fore, no equivalents or conversions are contained exceptwhen they are cited in examples.Procedures for the protection of the safety and health ofthose performing brazing and related operations are o

38、fgreat importance. Among the potential hazards to beconsidered are exposure to fumes and gases, radiation,and toxic materials. Safety and health issues may not befully addressed by this standard. Users of this standardshould consult ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting,and Allied Processes, applic
