impact value equal to or exceeding the required minimum
average value.
e. Specimen Orientation
The values listed in Table 5.3 are the minimum acceptable
values for forgings and wrought products tested in the trans-
verse direction and for castings and weld qualifications. Forg-
ings and wrought products may be tested in the longitudinal
direction instead of the transverse direction and then shall
exhibit 20 ft-lb (27 joules) minimum average value. Lateral
expansions shall be as stated in Table 5.3 regardless of speci-
men orientation.
5.4.3 Processing
5.4.3.1 Casting Practices
a. PSL 1 Requirements
All castings shall be of pressure vessel quality.
b. PSL 2-4 Requirements
PSL 1 requirements shall also apply. The materials manu-
facturer shall document foundry practices which establish
limits for sand control, core making, rigging and melting to
ensure repeatability in producing castings which meet the
requirements of this speci fi cation.

equipment qualified in accordance with the requirements
specified by the manufacturer. Appendix H of this specifica-
tion provides recommendations for heat treating equipment
qualification.
5.4.4.2 Temperatures
a. PSL 1- 3 Requirements
Tune at temperature and temperature level for heat treat-
ment cycles shall be determined in accordance with the man-
ufacturer's specification.
