This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2012, and conflicting na
16、tional standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by July 2012. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights other than those identified above. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pat

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(s), see informative Annex ZA
18、, which is an integral part of this document. Within its programme of work, Technical Committee CEN/TC 190 requested CEN/TC 190/WG 8 “High alloyed cast iron“ to revise EN 13835:2002.

19、cording 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, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,

BS EN 13835:2012EN 13835:2012 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard classifies a range of cast irons principally used for th
21、eir heat and corrosion resistance properties. These properties are obtainable from the engineering grades in this European Standard. The special purpose grades also exhibit heat and corrosion resistance properties, but are used principally for their magnetic properties, or very low expansion charact
22、eristics. The austenitic cast irons are a range of high-alloyed materials with an austenitic matrix, containing nickel, manganese and sometimes copper and chromium. Carbon is present either as graphite flakes or as spheroids. The spheroidal graphite grades have superior mechanical properties. The pr
23、operties of the austenitic cast irons depend upon them having the appropriate structure and mechanical properties for the application. These properties are dependent upon the control of metal composition within the specified grades and the metal processing route. Typical applications for the various
24、 grades are given in Annex A. In this European Standard a new designation system by number, as established in EN 1560 3, is given. NOTE This designation system by number is based on the structure and rules of EN 10027-2 4 and so corresponds with the European numbering system for steel and other mate
25、rials. Some austenitic cast iron grades can be used for pressure equipment. The permitted material grades of austenitic 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 design r
26、ules apply. Annex ZA gives information relating to the conformance of permitted austenitic cast iron grades to the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. BS EN 13835:2012EN 13835:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the grades and corresponding requirements for austenitic cast irons.
27、These requirements are specified in terms of: graphite form and metal structure: either flake or spheroidal graphite in an austenitic matrix; chemical composition: as given for each of the grades; mechanical properties measured on machined test pieces prepared from cast samples. This standard does n
28、ot cover technical delivery conditions for iron castings, see EN 1559-1 1 and EN 1559-3 2. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

NOTE The comparison o
35、f EN 13835 grade designations with the grades from ISO 2892:2007 5 is given in Annex B. 5 Order information The following information shall be supplied by the purchaser: a) number of this European Standard; b) designation of the material; c) relevant wall thickness; d) any special requirements. All
36、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). 6 Manufacture Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, the method of manufacture of austenitic cast irons shal
37、l be left to the discretion of the manufacturer. The manufacturer shall ensure that the requirements defined in this European Standard 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
38、. NOTE For certain applications heat treatment of austenitic cast irons is beneficial, but should only be specified where service conditions demand such treatment. The heat treatment processes employed are stress relieving and high temperature stabilising treatments. Details of these treatments are
39、given in Annex C. BS EN 13835:2012EN 13835:2012 (E) 7 7 Requirements 7.1 Chemical composition The chemical composition of austenitic cast iron grades shall be in accordance with Table 1 for the engineering grades and Table 2 for the special purpose grades. Spheroidal graphite grades are produced eit
40、her by magnesium treatment or by treatment with another suitable nodulariser. Unless otherwise specified, other elements may be present at the discretion of the manufacturer provided that they do not alter the structure or adversely affect the properties. If the presence of any element specified in
41、Tables 1 or 2 is required to be outside the limits indicated, or if any other elements are required, their contents shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser and specified in the order. For information about the effect of alloying elements see Annex D. 7.2 Mechanical properties 7.2.
42、1 General The property values given in Tables 3 and 4 apply to austenitic cast iron cast in sand moulds or moulds of comparable thermal behaviour. Subject to amendments to be agreed upon in the order, they can apply to castings obtained by alternative methods. Requirements regarding mechanical testi
43、ng are described in 9.2 and 9.3. NOTE Tensile testing requires sound test pieces in order to guarantee pure uni-axial stress during the test. Additional information on mechanical and physical properties is given in Annex E. 7.2.2 Test pieces machined from cast samples The mechanical properties of th
44、e grades of austenitic cast irons obtained from cast samples with a thickness or a diameter equal to or smaller than 25 mm shall be in accordance with: Table 3 for austenitic spheroidal graphite cast iron grades, with specified minimum impact energy; Table 4 for austenitic grey iron grades and auste
45、nitic spheroidal graphite cast iron grades, without specified minimum impact energy. The impact energy values given in Table 3 at room temperature, if applicable, shall only be determined if specified by the purchaser by the time of acceptance of the order. Other requirements, such as the mechanical
46、 properties to be met on samples with a thickness more than 25 mm shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser and specified in the order. 7.2.3 Test pieces machined from samples cut from a casting If applicable, the manufacturer and the purchaser shall agree on: location(s) on a casti
47、ng where the sample(s) shall be taken; mechanical properties that shall be measured; minimum values, or allowable range of values, for these mechanical properties. NOTE 1 The properties and the structure of castings are not uniform, depending on the complexity of the castings and variation in their
48、section thickness. BS EN 13835:2012EN 13835:2012 (E) 8 NOTE 2 Mechanical properties for test pieces cut from a casting are affected not only by material properties (subject of this European Standard) but also by the local casting soundness (not subject of this European Standard). 7.2.4 Hardness Brin
