21、 the tube: a) A for gas and water installations, including water intended for human consumption; b) B for other applications; followed by a full stop and a number to idenw the special requirements for that application (see 8.2.1 and table i), e.g. k3. 5 Information to be supplied by the purchaser 5.
22、1 Mandatory information The following information, when appropriate, shall be supplied by the purchaser to the galvanizer at the time of enquiry and order a) the number of this European standar b) the designation of coating quality (see clause 4); c) the product standard to which the tubes to be gal
23、vanized were manufactured 5.2 Options A number of options are permitted by this European Standard, and they are listed below with the appropriate clause references. Where the purchaser identifies an option he shall include it in his enquiry and order. In the event that the purchaser does not indicat
24、e his wish to implement an option, the galvanizer shall supply in accordance with the base specification 1) the minimum local coating thickness on the outside surface is specified This option applies to coating qualities Al, A2 and A3 only, and the purchaser shall indicate the minimum local coating
25、thickness required (see 8.2.1); 2) the chemical composition of the coating shall comply with 8.2.1 0. This option applies to coating qualities A2 and A3 onlx 3) the minimum local coating thickness required is in excess of 55 km. This option applies to coating qdty B.l only and the purchaser shall in
26、dicate the minimum coating thicknm required (see 8.2.2), e.g. as specified in prEN IS0 1461; 4) the type of post galvanizing treatment is specified. The purchaser shall indicate the type of post galvanking ireaiment required (see clause 12); 5) a post galvanizing treatment is precluded (see clause 1
27、2). 6 Hot dip galvanizing process 6.1 The galvanizer and the stockist, where products are supplied through a stockist, shall operate a quality system in accordance with EN IS0 9002. NOTE This requirement is also fuifilied by a quality system in accordance with EN IS0 9001. 6.2 The zinc added to the
28、galvaniziig bath shall contain a total of impurities (other than iron and tin) specified in EN 1179 not exceeduig 1,5 %. 7 General requirements of the coating NOTE The surface quality, thickness and adhesion of the coating may be influenced by the surface condition of the tubes to be coated (see ann
29、ex A). 7.1 Surface The coating on both the inside and outside surfaces shall be continuous, smooth and free from flux residues on the significant surface. NOTE White marks on the surface of the coating (commonly hown as “wet storage stain“) are permitted if the requirements for the coating thickness
30、 are met 7.2 Thickness The coating thickness on the signicant surface (mide and/or outside as applicable) shall comply with the requirements of the coating quality specified (see 8.2). NOTE Service life increases with increase in coating thickness, but thicker coatings are more susceptible to mechan
31、ical damage. 7.3 Adhesion When tested in accordance with 11.4.2 or 11.4.3 the coating shall show no evidence of flaking on the signicant surface. In addition the coating shall show no evidence of cracking on the sigruficant surface when subjected to the bend test. Flaking adjacent to cut faces or at
32、 the corners of square or rectangular tubes shall not be cause for rejection.

33、uirements which are related to the application of the tube. These are detailed in the coating quaities specified in 8.2 one of which shall be specified by the purchaser in his enquiry and order (see 6.1). 8.2 Requirements of coating quality 8.2.1 Coating qualities, A.l, A.2 and A.3 a) the surface of
34、 the com on the inside surface shaJ1 be as smooth as can be achieved by steam blowing. NOTE 1 Steam blowing produces a smoother surface on tubes of outside diameter 21,3 mm up to and including 88,9 mm than on tubes of other sizes. NOTE 2 Some variations may occur in the surface condition of the coat
35、ing at the points where the tube is held whilst steam blowing and within 50 mm of the tube ends; b) the minimum local coating thickness on the inside surface shall be as specified in table 1; c) unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, the minimum local coating thickness on the outside surface i
36、s not controlled. Option 1 (see 6.2) : The minimum local coating thickness on the outside surface is specified; d) for coating quality Al the local coating thickness shall be as specified in table 1 at any point of the weld bead on the inside surface of welded tubes (see annex A); Page 6 EN 10240:19
37、97 e) the product of any post gdvanizing treatment, e.g. phosphatmg, shaU be water soluble to such a degree that its removal is ensured and no toxic elements remain on the inside surface after flushing; f) for coating quaiity Al, and for coating qualities A2 and A3 when Option 2 is specified, the ch
38、emical composition of the coating shall not exceed the following: Antimony 0,01% ; Arsenic 0,02 % ; Cadmium 0,01% ; Bismuth 0,01%. Lead 0,8 % ; For antimony, arsenic, cadmium and bismuth the above requirements can alternatively, at the galvanizers option, be met by analysing a sample from the galvan
39、izing bath or by a certificate issued by the supplier of the zinc showing conformi with the maximum value specified for each element. Option 2 (see 6.2) : The chemical composition of the coating shall for coating qualities A2 and A3 not exceed the limits given above. 8.2.2 Coating qualities B.1, B.2
40、 and B.3 The minimum local coating thickness on the outside surface of the tube shaii be as specified in table 2. Thicker coatings than 55 Fm minimum may be achieved on some steels, and when required they shal be specified by the purchaser in the enquiry and order (see Option 3). Option 3 (see 5.2)
41、: For the coating quality B.l, a minimum local coating thickness in excess of 56 Fm is specified (see note in 7.2).
