Quote of UG84 (b)
"Impact test procedures and apparatus shall conform to the applicable paragraphs of SA-370 or ISO 148 (Parts 1,2 and 3)."

My Question:
Is a calibration of an impact testing machine acc. to ISO 148 satisfactory and will be accepted for inspection acc. ASME Sec. III Div?
Or, is it still necessacry to calibrate the impact testing machine (inkl. hammer) acc. ASTM E 23 to fulfill the requirements of the complete ASME Code (incl. Sec I, Section II Part A, Section III, , ASME Section VIII Div. 1,2,3)

Best Regards

It is a requirement of UG-84(b)(1) only

not in Section III: read below
NB-2321.2 Charpy V‑Notch Tests. The Charpy
V‑notch test (Cv), when required, shall be performed in
accordance with SA-370.

This means: If material will be deliver acc. all the other Sections, we have done the impact test acc. ASTM A370 (calibration acc. E23)? Have we the requirement acc. ASME Sec. VIII, the impact test acc. ISO 148 is satisfactory ?
