Foreword
This document (EN 10283:2010) has been prepared by Technical Committee ECISS/TC 111 “Steel
castings and forgings”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.

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 August 2010, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by August 2010.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such
patent rights.

This document supersedes EN 10283:1998.

Main changes made: addition of two new steel grades: austenitic grade GX4CrNiMo19-11-3 (1.4443)
and ferritic-austenitic grade GX4CrNiMoN26-5-2 (1.4474) in all relevant tables as well as the
replacement of the number for fully austenitic grade GX2CrNiMoCuN20-18-6 (1.4593 by 1.4557).

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,
Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal,
Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Introduction
This European Standard retains the same format for clauses as EN 1559-1:1997 and
EN 1559-2:2000. It should be used in conjunction with these documents. Where no text is given under
a clause heading, the corresponding clause of EN 1559-1:1997 or EN 1559-2:2000 applies.

The structure of this standard is as follows:

 clauses and subclauses preceded by ■ indicate no additional conditions to EN 1559-1:1997 or

EN 1559-2:20001);

 subclauses and paragraphs marked with a single dot • indicate that the conditions shall be
agreed at the time of enquiry and order;

 subclauses marked with two dots •• indicate that conditions may be agreed at the time of enquiry
and order (optional);

 subclauses without dot marking are mandatory.

1) When additional information is given in a clause or subclause of this standard (versus the same clause or
subclause of EN 1559-1:1997 or EN 1559-2:2000) it is preceded by: "In addition to EN 1559:".

1 Scope
This European Standard applies to corrosion resistant steel castings for general purposes.

This standard relates to castings manufactured from martensitic, austenitic, fully austenitic and ferritic-
austenitic steel grades characterised by their chemical composition (see Table 1) and mechanical
properties (see Table 2).

In cases where castings are joined by welding by the founder, this European Standard applies.

In cases where castings are welded:

 to wrought products (plates, tubes, forgings);

 or by non founders;

this European Standard does not apply.

a +Q means: quenching in air or liquid. + AT means: solution annealing + quenching in water.
b After solution annealing at high temperature, castings may be cooled to a temperature between 1 040 °C and 1 010 °C prior to water quenching to prevent cracks and to improve corrosion resistance.
c After solution annealing + quenching in water, precipitation hardening is possible by treatment at 480 °C to 510 °C, while ductility, impact energy and corrosion resistance are only slightly lowered.

6.2 Welding operations

6.2.1 ■ General

NOTE For austenitic, fully austenitic and ferritic-austenitic (duplex) grades with a carbon content greater than 0,030
%, when welding cannot be followed by heat treatment as solution annealing (+AT), there may be a risk of intergranular
corrosion.

6.2.2 Production welding

In addition to EN 1559-2:2000:

Information on preheat, and interpass temperatures as well as on postweld heat-treatment is given in

Annex A.

7.1 ■ General

7.2 Materials

7.2.1 Chemical composition

In addition to EN 1559-2:2000:

 the chemical composition determined by a cast analysis shall conform with the values given in Table 1;

 permissible deviations between the specified cast analysis and the check analysis on test blocks are
indicated EN 1559-2:2000;

 elements unspecified shall not be intentionally added without agreement of the purchaser other than for
the purpose of finishing the heat. If not otherwise agreed the maximum values in percent by mass (% by
mass) given in Table 3 shall apply.

7.2.2 Mechanical properties

7.2.2.1 The mechanical properties shall conform to the values given in Table 2. They are verified on test
blocks, see 8.4. In all cases the maximum thickness shall be limited to 150 mm.

•• In cases where the ruling thickness specified by the purchaser is above the maximum thickness given in
Table 2, the mechanical properties shall be agreed.

7.2.2.2 The values of yield and tensile strength also apply to the casting itself up to the maximum wall
thickness as given in Table 2.

The yield strength values at room temperature correspond to:

 0,2 % proof strength (Rp0,2) for martensitic, austenitic, fully austenitic and ferritic-austenitic steels;

 1,0 % proof strength (Rp1,0) for austenitic and fully austenitic steels.

7.4 Corrosion behaviour

Austenitic steel grades shall be resistant to intergranular corrosion when tested according to EN ISO 3651-2.

NOTE All grades of this European Standard have performed satisfactory for long time. However it is difficult to
provide absolute information on corrosion resistance. Values obtained under laboratory test conditions are not always
adequate for the real application. Additives and contamination in the corrosive media can give rise to different results.

•• Grades may be selected by the "pitting index" P.I. = % Cr + 3,3 x % Mo + 16 x % N.

Based upon this a minimum pitting index can be required by agreement.

8 Testing and documents on material testing

8.1 General

In addition to EN 1559-1:1997:

a) Castings manufactured according to this standard may be supplied with an inspection document
according to EN 10204;

b) If, in the case of specific inspection, the issue of an inspection certificate has been agreed this shall
include the following:

1) the amounts of all elements specified (for the cast analysis) for the steel grade required;

2) the results of the mechanical test as required for the specific steel grade;

3) a statement on the result of agreed dimensional check and non destructive testing;

4) •• the result of any further mutually agreed testing.

8.2 ■ Inspection and testing

8.3 Test unit sampling

8.3.1 Formation of test units

For castings under 1 000 kg in mass the delivered quantity shall be subdivided into lots covering castings of
the same type from the same melt and having undergone the same heat treatment. The mass of a lot (test
unit) shall not be greater than 5 000 kg.

8.3.2 For casting more than 1 000 kg in mass, each individual casting shall be regarded as the test unit.

8.4 ■ Samples (test blocks)

8.5 Test methods

a) ■ Tensile test at room temperature;

b) tensile test at elevated temperature not applicable;

c) ■ impact test;

d) ■ ferrite content;

e) ■ hardness test;

f) ■ homogeneity of test units (hardness test);

g) ■ pressure or leak testing;

h) •• intergranular corrosion test.

The test, carried out in accordance with EN ISO 3651-2, shall be agreed at the time of enquiry and order.

i) •• Tests for magnetic properties.

In addition to EN 1559-2:2000: magnetic permeability shall be specified at the time of enquiry and order.

j) ■ Other tests for any other properties shall be agreed.
