15、dards Committee. Its purpose is to enable valves of appropriate quality to be selected for the duties intended and the manufacturer to indicate his quality levels. The implementation of this standard is dependent upon the use of specimen radiographs prepared by the American Society for Testing and M

16、aterials and copies of these radiographs may be examined at the offices of the Steel Castings Research and Trade Association (SCRATA) 1) , by prior appointment only, at no charge. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards ar

17、e responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to4, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has

18、 been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover. 1) Steel Castings Research and Trade Association,5East Bank Road, Sheffield S23PT.BS5998:1983 BSI 06-1999 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies qu

19、ality levels for steel castings for the pressure containing components of valves and requirements for inspection and identification of steel castings. The aim of this standard is to ensure integrity of the pressure containing components, e.g.body and bonnet, by specifying quality requirements, appro

20、priate records and casting identification. The requirements of this standard are additional to any casting requirements, e.g.material properties, that are specified in any other standard relating to valves. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back

21、 cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the following definition applies. butt-weld end that region of the casting that extends from the machined extremity of the butt-weld preparation a distance of1.5t or50mm, whichever is the lesser (see Figure 1) 3 Methods for non-destruct

22、ive testing The methods for non-destructive testing shall be in accordance with BS4080. 4 Inspection quality levels Manufacturers shall supply details of critical areasof pressure containing castings to be non-destructively examined in respect of the following senses (see also Appendix B): a) castin

23、g solidification; b) stress concentration; c) ability to contain pressure. Quality levels shall be as given in Table 1. 5 Non-destructive examination 5.1 Acceptance standards for non-destructive examination 5.1.1 General. The categories and severity levels shall comply with5.1.2 to5.1.5, as appropri

24、ate (seeTable 1). 5.1.2 Acceptance standards for visual inspection. Inall cases, the acceptance standard for visualinspection shall comply with MSS-SP55-1971(reaffirmed1980) 2) . 5.1.3 Acceptance standards for magnetic particle inspection related to linear discontinuities only. All linear discontinu

25、ities shall not be in excess of Type1, Degree2as illustrated in ASTM E125-1965. 5.1.4 Acceptance standards for liquid penetrant inspection related to linear discontinuities only. All linear discontinuities shall not be in excess of Type1, Degree2as illustrated in ASTM E125-1963. 2) “Quality Standard

In all cases there shall be no hot tears, cracks, unfused chapl

28、ets, chills or inserts. 6 Rectification or repair by welding If castings are rectified or repaired, such rectification or repair shall be in accordance with the requirements of BS4570-1, and welded areas shall be re-inspected in accordance with the casting quality level. 7 Identification Castings ma

29、nufactured by the shell moulding technique shall be identified by a cast-on code relating to the month of manufacture. Castings manufactured by the green/dry sand technique shall be identified by a cast-on code relating to the day of manufacture. These identification codes shall be related to all co
