21、nder high pressure into a metal die. 3.2 permanent mould casting Metal object produced by introducing molten metal by gravity or low pressure into a mould or die constructed of durable material, usually iron or steel, and allowing it to solidify. NOTE When a graphite mould is used, the process is kn
22、own as “graphite permanent mould casting“. 3.3 sand casting Metal object produced by introducing molten metal by gravity into a sand mould and allowing it to solidify. 4 Casting designation 4.1 General Zinc alloy castings conforming to this standard shall be designated by number or short designation
23、 in accordance with the system given in EN 1774, but having a letter P in the second character position. P indicates that the product is a casting.

A zinc alloy casting made from an alloy consisting nominally of 4 % aluminium, 1 % 5 Manufacture The castings according to this standard shall be manufactured from : a) zinc alloy ingot or liquid conforming to one of the all
26、oys given in EN 1774 ; and/or b) the die casters own process returns, e.g. sprues, runners and overflows ; and/or c) the die casters own castings rejected from foundry secondary operations. Used recycled materials and all other materials which could cause contamination such as shredder scrap shall n

30、ing For routine sampling of a batch of castings for chemical analysis, the sampling techniques and frequency shall be at the discretion of the supplier. In case of dispute, the procedures and frequency of sampling for chemical analysis shall be agreed between the purchaser and the supplier. 8.2 Anal
31、ysis 8.2.1 in accordance with 8.1 shall be at the discretion of the supplier. For the routine testing of castings, the methods of analysis to be used on the samples obtained 8.2.2 In the case of dispute concerning the conformity of the castings to the chemical composition limits, when the sample qua
32、ntity is sufficient, the chemical composition shall be determined on the samples obtained by optical emission spectrometric analysis, using the methods given in EN 12019. The analysis sample shall then be : - a purpose made sample, prepared by remelting, to give a test piece having a minimum mass of
33、 100 g. In this case, the selection of the samples shall be such that it is representative of the tested lot ; - if the casting to be tested is too small and it is not possible to collect sufficient into a 100 g specimen, the sampling and test methods shall be agreed between the parties, and expert
34、knowledge should be sought. A test report shall give full details of the analysis sample. 9 Marking and labelling Where possible, the castings shall be marked or labelled with the following information unless the supplier and purchaser agree to omit some of the following markings : a) producers mark
35、 ; b) c) d) production period. short designation (see table 1) ; recycling mark (see annex C) ; 10 Inspection documents If requested by the purchaser at the time of ordering, the supplier shall furnish inspection documents with each consignment of castings. The documentation shall be as requested by
36、 the purchaser and shall be in accordance with either a) or b) as follows : a) a certificate in accordance with EN 10204, based either on : - tests carried out on the delivered batch of castings ; or - the producers process control systems ; COPYRIGHT DIN DEUTSCHES Institut Fur Normung E.V.- English

38、one step to the same number of figures used to express the specified limit in table 1. The following rules shall be used for rounding : a) if the figure immediately after the last figure to be retained is less than 5, the last figure to be retained shall be kept unchanged ; if the figure immediately
39、 after the last figure to be retained is equal to or greater than 5, the last figure to be retained shall be increased by 1. b) COPYRIGHT DIN DEUTSCHES Institut Fur Normung E.V.- EnglishLicensed by Information Handling ServicesPage 7 EN 12844: 1998 h E E op Y C .- C O v) O .- c .- E u vj m N a COPYR
