Hi,

As per ASME Sec.IX - Non Mandatory Appendix- L - L100, If a welder qualified as per ISO 9606 also qualified for ASME Sec.IX. You should prepare Welder Qualification record as per ASME Sec.IX with actual values of qualification in ISO 9606.

Please find the attached pages from ASME Sec.IX for your reference.

L-100 INTRODUCTION

When a welder or a welding operator welds a test coupon

or makes a production weld, that person does not

weld one way when the applicable standard is ASME

and another way when the applicable standard is AWS,

EN, JIS, or ISO. Recognizing this, recent revisions by ISO

TC44, to ISO 9606-1, and ISO 14732 bring them much closer

to the requirements of Section IX. This Appendix discusses

what is necessary for an organization that is

testing welders or welding operators under the above

ISO standards to also certify that those welders and welding

operators are qualified to Section IX.

This Appendix is based on the requirements of ISO

9606-1:2012 and ISO 14732:2013.

L-300 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

The qualification record must record the essential variables

for the welding process and list the ranges qualified.

While the “actual values” recorded on the test record will

be the same as for a test record prepared according to

ISO 9606-1 or ISO 14732, the ranges qualified will be different

for a record prepared according to Section IX.

Care should be taken to select material used for the test

coupon from those that are assigned a P-Number under

QW-420 and filler metals that are assigned F-Numbers

in accordance with QW-432 in order to ensure full interchangeability

with other materials that are assigned

P-Numbers or F-Numbers.

Since the forms may be in any format as long as the actual

values, ranges qualified, and test results are recorded,

a record showing the ranges qualified under both ISO and

ASME may be on separate forms or they may be on one

form at the discretion of the organization.

Thanks& Regards,
