DIN EN 1561:2012-01 EN 1561: 2011 ( E ) 3 Introduction This European Standard deals with the classification of grey cast irons, subdivided into two groups, specified by their tensile strength or hardness, respec
25、tively. The properties of grey cast iron depend on the form and distribution of the graphite and the structure of the matrix. In the previous edition of EN 1561, the designation by symbol was based on the minimum tensile strength to be obtained in the separately cast sample with 30 mm diameter. In T
26、able 1 of this previous edition, the corresponding mandatory minimum tensile strength values, which should be obtained for relevant wall thicknesses up to 300 mm, in a cast-on sample were given. For castings which have been designed before the date of issue of this standard, it is furthermore possib
27、le to determine the tensile strength of the specified grey cast iron grade by using separately cast samples with a diameter of 30 mm, irrespective of the relevant wall thickness. In this case, the mandatory minimum values for the tensile strength, as specified in the previous edition (EN 1561:1997)
28、of this standard, are given in Annex A, Table A.1 (bold figure in the material designation). In this edition of EN 1561, the designation by symbol is based on the minimum tensile strength to be obtained in a cast sample, which diameter corresponds to the relevant wall thickness of the casting. This
29、applies to a maximum relevant wall thickness of 50 mm. Compared with the previous edition of this standard, for relevant wall thicknesses from 50 mm to 200 mm, the relationship with the 30 mm separately cast sample has been abandoned and instead of that, cast-on samples with a size corresponding to
30、the relevant wall thickness ranges are specified. Additionally the minimum tensile properties to be obtained in these cast-on samples, are increased. In this standard a new designation system by number, as established in EN 1560 1, is given. NOTE This designation system by number is based on the str
31、ucture and rules of EN 10027-2 2 and so corresponds with the European numbering system for steel and other materials. The mechanical properties of the material can be evaluated on machined test pieces prepared from: separately cast samples; side by side cast samples; cast-on samples; samples cut fro
32、m a casting. Hardness of the material can also be evaluated on the casting. However, for many applications tensile strength or hardness are not the only interesting or determining properties. Other mechanical or physical properties can be decisive for the use of grey cast irons, for example: thermal
33、 capacity, thermal diffusivity, damping capacity or thermo-cycle fatigue. Therefore, Annex A (informative) provides additional information of interest to casting designers. DIN EN 1561:2012-01 EN 1561: 2011 ( E ) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the properties of unalloyed and low-alloyed
34、grey cast irons used for castings, which have been manufactured in sand moulds or in moulds with comparable thermal behaviour. This European Standard specifies the characterizing properties of grey cast irons by either a) the tensile strength of cast samples, or b) the hardness measured on the casti
35、ngs or on a cast-on knob. If agreed by the manufacturer and the purchaser, the combination of both tensile strength from option a) and hardness from option b) may be specified. This European Standard specifies six grades of grey cast iron by a classification based on tensile strength measured on mac
36、hined test pieces prepared from cast samples (see Table 1) and six grades of grey cast iron by a classification based on Brinell hardness (see Table 2). This European Standard does not cover technical delivery conditions for iron castings; see EN 1559-1 3 and EN 1559-3 4. This European Standard does
37、 not apply to grey cast irons used for pipes and fittings according to EN 877 5. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the r

In the case of samples cut from the casting the letter C is added at the end of the designation by symbol. NOTE Comparison of EN 1561 grade designations to
44、the grades from the ISO standard for grey cast irons (ISO 185:2005) 6 is given in Annex B. 5 Order information The order shall specify, in an unambiguous manner, whether the tensile strength measured on cast samples, or the Brinell hardness measured on the casting, is the characterizing property. If
45、 it does not do so, then the manufacturer shall characterize the material according to tensile strength. 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; NOTE 1 For castings whic
46、h have been designed before the date of issue of this standard, the information regarding the relevant wall thickness can be omitted. 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 deliver
47、y conditions according to EN 1559-1 and EN 1559-3. NOTE 2 When specifying a combination of tensile strength and hardness, it is recommended to consult the information in Annex E. In case of castings which have been designed before the date of issue of this standard, for the verification of the minim
48、um tensile strength of the specified grey cast iron grade, separately cast samples with a diameter of 30 mm are used. The order shall specify the number and year of the previous edition (EN 1561:1997) of this European Standard.
