38、h equation indicates that the limits of theelement specified by the applicable specification are to be inserted into theequation to calculate the tolerance for the upper limit and the lower limit, ifapplicable, respectively. Examples of computing tolerances are presented in thefootnote C.C To comput

39、e the tolerances, consider the manganese limits 0.50 - 80 % of GradeWC4 of Specification A217/A217M. According to Table 1, the maximum permis-sible deviation of a product analysis below the lower limit 0.50 is 0.05 % = (0.08 0.50 + 0.01). The lowest acceptable product analysis of Grade WC4, therefor

40、e, is0.45 %. Similarly, the maximum permissible deviation above the upper limit of 0.80% is 0.074 % = (0.08 0.08 + 0.01). The highest acceptable product analysis ofGrade WC4, therefore is 0.874. For Grade WCC of Specification A216/A216M, themaximum manganese content is 1.40 % if the carbon content i

41、s 0.20 %. In thiscase, the highest acceptable product analysis is 1.49 = (1.40 + 0.09).A985/A985M 1234.3.2 Castings shall be heat treated in the working zone of a furnace that has been surveyed in accordance with Test MethodA991/A991M.4.3.2.1 When castings are heat treated at temperatures above 2000

42、F 1100C, then the working zone shall have beenestablished by a survey performed at not more than 25F 15C below nor more than 200F 110C above the minimum heattreatment temperature specified for the grade. If a minimum heat treatment temperature is not specified for the grade, then thesurvey temperatu

43、re shall be not more than 50F 30C below nor more than 175F 100C above the furnace set point used.4.3.2.2 The maximum variation in measured temperature as determined by the difference between the highest temperature andthe lowest temperature shall be as agreed between the purchaser and producer excep

44、t that during production heat treatment noportion of the furnace shall be below the minimum specified temperature nor above the maximum specified temperature for thegrade being processed.4.4 Sampling:4.4.1 If castings are poured directly from one or more master heats, then the samples for chemical a

45、nd other required testingalso shall be poured directly from each of the master heats.4.4.2 If castings are poured from a subheat, then the samples for chemical and other required testing also shall be poured froma subheat of that same master heat, but not necessarily from the same subheat as the cas

46、tings. The subheat used for the test samplesshall be produced using the same practices and additions as used for the castings.4.4.3 Test specimens may be taken from castings or from coupons cast either integrally with the castings, in the same moldsas the castings, or in separate molds.4.4.4 Separat

47、ely cast specimens for tension testing shall be cast in molds of the same type and material as those used for thecastings, as shown in Specification A1067, Figs. 14, except when Supplementary Requirement S26 is specified. The test couponin Specification A1067, Fig. 4 shall be employed only for auste

49、with 4.4 or Supplementary Requirement S29 as appropriate,shall be made by the manufacturer to determine the percentages of the elements specified for the grade being poured. Whendrillings are used, they shall be taken not less than 116 in. 1.6 mm beneath the surface. The chemical composition thus determinedshall be reported to the purchaser, or his representative, and shall conform to the requirements in the individual specification forthe grade being poured.5.3 Product AnalysisA product analysis may
