15、e withdrawn at the latest by July 2010. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

16、tee CEN/TC 190 requested CEN/TC 190/WG 13 “Welding of cast iron“ to prepare the following standard: EN 287-6, Qualification test of welders Fusion welding Part 6: Cast iron. EN 287 consists of the following parts, under the general title Qualification test of welders Fusion welding: Part 1: Steels P
17、art 6: Cast iron 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, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary,
18、 Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. BS EN 287-6:2010EN 287-6:2010 (E) 4 Introduction The ability of a welder to follow verbal or written instructions and
19、 verification of a persons skills are important factors in ensuring the quality of the welded product. The testing of a welders skill in accordance with this standard depends on welding techniques and conditions used in which uniform rules are complied with, and standard test pieces are used. The pr
20、inciple of this European Standard is that a qualification test qualifies the welder not only for the conditions used in the test, but also for all joints which are considered easier to weld on the presumption that the welder has received a specific training and/or has industrial practice within the
21、range of qualification. The qualification test can be used to qualify a welding procedure and a welder provided that all the relevant requirements, e.g. test piece dimensions, are satisfied. BS EN 287-6:2010EN 287-6:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies main requirements, limits, inspe
22、ction conditions and acceptance requirements as well as related inspection documents of welders for welded cast iron test pieces and workpieces. It provides a set of technical rules for a systematic qualification test of a welders skills, and enables such qualifications to be uniformly accepted inde
23、pendently of the type of product, location and examiner/examining body. This European Standard specifies the testing of a welders skill unless a higher level skill test is applicable. The acceptance of a welders skill according to this European Standard implies a practical experience and knowledge r
24、egarding the welding process, materials and safety requirements (see Annex C). This European Standard has to be used when requirements on part of a customer, testing or monitoring body or other organisation are postulated. This European Standard defines the qualification test of welders for the fusi
25、on welding of cast iron. The welding processes referred to in this standard include those fusion welding processes which are designated as manual or partly mechanized welding. It does not cover fully mechanized and automated welding processes (see EN 1418). Cast iron materials which are covered by t
26、his European Standard are mentioned in 5.4. The inspection document and certification is made out in the name of the testing bodys liability. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

All test pieces shall be welded using the essential variables independently. The test piece for the qualif
40、ication test is unattached from the type of component. 5.2 Welding processes The welding processes are defined in ISO 857-1 (see also 4.2). 5.3 Type of weld and joint preparation For those butt and fillet weld test pieces made of cast iron plates with tapped blind holes and for those test pieces mad
41、e of cast iron with simulated cracks the qualification test shall be made according to 7.2. 5.4 Material groups 5.4.1 General In order to reduce the number of qualification tests, materials with similar welding characteristics are grouped according to CEN ISO/TR 15608 (see also 5.4.2). 5.4.2 Cast ir
42、on groups According to the operational requirements the following cast iron materials are relevant. Cast iron groups according to CEN ISO/TR 15608: 71 grey (lamellar graphite) cast iron; 72 spheroidal graphite cast iron; 73 malleable cast iron; 74 austempered ductile cast iron; 75 austenitic cast ir
43、on; 76 other cast iron materials. 5.5 Weld metals It is differentiated between homogeneous weld metal (hw), semi-homogeneous weld metal (sw) and non-homogeneous weld metal (nw). For the qualification test, suitable consumables shall be selected in view of the parent metal and the welding process. Th
44、e welding process shall conform to the relevant pWPS or WPS (see EN ISO 15609-1 and EN ISO 15609-2). If a qualification test is made by using one kind of welding consumables, shielding gases or welding fluxes the test will also be accepted for comparable types of welding consumables, shielding gases
45、 or welding fluxes for the same cast iron material group. BS EN 287-6:2010EN 287-6:2010 (E) 9 5.6 Welding positions The welding position shall be chosen in accordance with Figure C.1. The welding positions and symbols refer to EN ISO 6947. The test pieces shall be welded in accordance with the nomin
46、al angles of the welding positions according to EN ISO 6947. 6 Range of qualification 6.1 General As a basic principle the qualification test of a welder not only covers the referring test piece and the skill for these special variables, it also covers joints and appropriate variables which are easi
47、er to create. 6.2 Welding process Each qualification test refers to one welding process. A change of the welding process requires a new qualification test. 6.3 Welding position The welding position PB includes the position PA. The welding position PC includes the positions PA and PB. The welding pos
48、ition PF includes the positions PB and PA. NOTE The positions of weld are illustrated in Figure C.1. 6.4 Cast iron material groups See CEN ISO/TR 15608 (see also Table A.1).
