This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorse
18、ment, at the latest by May 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2012. This document supersedes EN 1564:1997. Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 190 requested CEN/TC 190/WG 7 “Spheroidal graphite, silicon molybdenum and austempered duc
19、tile iron“ to revise EN 1564:1997. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive 97/23/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is
20、an integral part of this document. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Annex K provides details of significant technical c
21、hanges between this European Standard and the previous edition. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Esto

BS EN 1564:2011EN 1564:2011 (E) 5 Introduction Ausferritic spheroidal grap
23、hite cast iron is a cast alloy, iron, carbon and silicon based, the carbon being present mainly in the form of spheroidal graphite particles. NOTE 1 Ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron is also known as austempered ductile iron (ADI). Compared with the spheroidal graphite cast irons as specifie
24、d in EN 1563 1, this material combines higher strength and toughness properties as a result of the ausferritic matrix structure. This European Standard classifies ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons in accordance with the mechanical properties of the material. The mechanical properties of the
25、se ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons depend on the graphite and the matrix structure. The required structure is obtained by selecting the appropriate composition and subsequent processing. The mechanical properties of the material can be evaluated on machined test pieces prepared from cast
26、samples or samples cut from a casting. Five grades of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron are defined by the mechanical properties measured on machined test pieces prepared from cast samples. When, for these grades, hardness is a requirement of the purchaser as being important for the applicat
27、ion, Annex C provides guidance values for hardness. Two grades of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron are defined in Annex A in accordance with their hardness. These cast irons are used in applications (e.g. mining, earth moving) where high abrasion resistance is required. In this standard a n
28、ew designation system by number, as established in EN 1560 2, is given. NOTE 2 This designation system by number is based on the principles and the structure as set out in EN 10027-2 3 and so corresponds with the European numbering system for steel and other materials. Some ausferritic spheroidal gr
29、aphite cast iron grades can be used for pressure equipment. The permitted material grades of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron for pressure applications and the conditions for their use are given in specific product or application standards. For the design of pressure equipment, specific des
30、ign rules apply. Annex ZA gives information relating to the conformance of permitted ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron grades to the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. BS EN 1564:2011EN 1564:2011 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard defines the grades and the corresponding requirements f
31、or ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons. This European Standard specifies five grades of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast iron by a classification based on mechanical properties measured on machined test pieces prepared from cast samples. This European Standard also specifies two grades by
32、 a classification as a function of hardness. This European Standard does not cover technical delivery conditions for iron castings, see EN 1559-1 4 and EN 1559-3 5. NOTE Grades given in Annex A are not intended for pressure equipment applications. 2 Normative references The following referenced docu

39、atrix structure for a time and a temperature (above the martensite start temperature) sufficient to produce the desired properties NOTE This process produces a microstructure that consists predominantly of ferrite and austenite. This microstructure is called ausferrite. 3.4 cast sample quantity of m

42、nation The material shall be designated either by symbol or by number as given in Tables 1, 2 or A.1. In the case of samples cut from the casting the letter C is added at the end of the designation by symbol, see EN 1560. NOTE The comparison of EN 1564 grade designations with the grades from the ISO
43、 standard for ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons, ISO 17804:2005 6, is given in Annex B. 5 Order information The following information shall be supplied by the purchaser: a) the number of this European Standard; b) the designation of the material; c) the relevant wall thickness of the castin
44、g; d) any special requirements. All requirements shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser by the time of acceptance of the order e.g. technical delivery conditions according to EN 1559-1 and EN 1559-3. BS EN 1564:2011EN 1564:2011 (E) 8 6 Manufacture Unless otherwise specified by th
45、e purchaser, the method of manufacture of ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons and heat treatment required to obtain the specified mechanical properties and microstructure shall be left to the discretion of the manufacturer. The manufacturer shall ensure that the requirements defined in this s
46、tandard are met for the material grade specified in the order. All agreements between the manufacturer and the purchaser shall be made by the time of acceptance of the order. 7 Requirements 7.1 General The property values apply to ausferritic spheroidal graphite cast irons cast in sand moulds or mou
47、lds of comparable thermal behaviour. Subject to amendments to be agreed upon in the order, they can apply to castings obtained by alternative methods. The material designation is based on the minimum mechanical properties obtained in cast samples with a thickness or diameter of 25 mm. The designatio
48、n is irrespective of the type of cast sample. Mechanical properties are wall thickness dependant as shown in Table 1.
