Engineered components for critical service
Quality
Three verification scopes — supplier, product and transaction — connect the material certificate to the inspection record and the shipped item. Certificates and material test reports are issued against the order.
Certifications
Certificates are available to customers and prospective customers on request. The status shown is the current record; the certificate is the controlling document.
Accredited certification body
The quality management system covers contract review, design verification, purchasing, production, inspection, non-conformance and corrective action.
American Petroleum Institute
API Q1 registration covers the manufacture of flanges, vessel nozzles and expansion joints for oil and gas service.
Belvanta Global Industries Limited — Quality
Material selection, hardness control and heat treatment are reviewed against NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 for sour-service orders. A compliance statement is issued with the order.
Verification scopes
Verification is not a single inspection step. It starts with the material source, continues through production and closes with the shipment record.
01
Approved suppliers are assessed before first order and re-evaluated on a defined cycle. Material and process certificates are checked against the purchase order before release to production.
02
Dimensional, material and pressure verification is performed against the order specification. Inspection and test plans are agreed at quotation for critical-service orders.
03
Every shipment is traceable to the purchase order, material heat, inspection record and packing list. Documentation is issued with the shipment and retained for the required period.
Material traceability
Material certificates are checked against the purchase order and the heat number is carried through production, inspection and packing. For critical-service orders, the documentation package is agreed before release and reviewed at shipment.
Typical order documentation package
Material certificate
EN 10204 3.1 or 2.2, matched to heat number.
Inspection record
Dimensional, visual and NDE results against the ITP.
Pressure test record
Hydrostatic or pneumatic test where specified.
Certificate of conformity
Statement of conformity to the order specification.
Packing list
Item, quantity, marking and shipment reference.
Inspection and testing
Not every order needs every test. The inspection and test plan is agreed at quotation so the release criteria are clear before production.
Bore, face, bolt circle, thickness and overall dimensions checked against the applicable ASME or project drawing.
Alloy verification by X-ray fluorescence on request, with results recorded against the heat number and line item.
Pressure testing of nozzles, expansion joints and pressure expanders against the specified test pressure and hold time.
Radiography, ultrasonic, penetrant and magnetic particle examination by qualified personnel to the order NDE plan.
Flow rate, spray angle and pattern checked against the published curve for spray nozzle orders on request.
Durometer, compression set and material certificates checked against the compound specification for sealing products.
