11、has been prepared at the request of the stainless steel industry. Because of the inadvisability in some cases of using acid chloride fluxes in making capillary joints in stainless steel tube, a decision was taken to prepare this standard for phosphoric acid based flux particularly for the applicatio

12、n of preparing soft soldered capillary joints in stainless steel tube in accordance with BS4127 “Light gauge stainless steel tubes”, Part 2 “Metric units”, with solder in accordance with BS EN29453 “Soft solder alloys Chemical composition and forms” and fittings of copper or copper alloy in accordan

13、ce with the relevant part of BS EN1254 “Copper and copper alloys plumbing fittings” or of stainless steel. It is intended to ensure that purchasers of phosphoric acid based flux for use in this application may be certain that such fluxes and their residues are safe, i.e.not corrosive in normal use,

14、towards the tube, fittings, or solder in the capillary joints after the joint has been made. The type of flux covered by this standard may, however, be used for other applications where soldered joints in stainless steel are involved. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary

15、provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to4, a

16、n inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS5245:1975 BSI 05-1999 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies requirements for phosphoric ac

17、id based flux for soft soldered joints in stainless steel. The flux is considered to be particularly suitable for making soft soldered capillary joints in stainless steel tube in accordance with BS4127-2, with solder in accordance with BSEN29453, and fittings of copper or copper alloy in accordance

18、with BS EN 1254, or of stainless steel. 2 References The titles of the British Standards referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Information to be supplied by the purchaser The purchaser shall state on his enquiry and order the following information: a) if tests are requi

19、red (see clause 4 and clause 7); b) if a manufacturers certificate is required (seeclause 13); c) if it is the intention of the purchaser to inspect the material at the manufacturers works (seeclause 10). 4 Composition The principal active agent in the flux shall be phosphoric acid. The flux shall c

20、ontain not more than0.05% by mass of halogen, calculated as chlorine and determined by the method given in Appendix A. 5 Condition After any agitation recommended by the manufacturer and stated on the container, the flux shall be in a uniform viscous form and of a consistency suitable for applicatio

21、n to the surface to be soldered and subsequent retention within the gap of the capillary joint. 6 Sampling When tests are called for by the purchaser, one container of flux (seeclause11) shall be selected at random to represent one manufacturing batch. 7 Solderability test When tests are called for

22、by the purchaser, these shall be carried out in accordance with the method specified in Appendix B. The average of the results of ten tests shall give an area of solder spread of not less than3.0cm 2 . 8 Retests Should the sample of flux first selected fail to meet the requirements of clause 4 or cl

23、ause 7, two further samples from the same batch shall be selected for testing, unless the batch has been withdrawn by the manufacturer. Should both these additional samples meet the requirements of clause 4 or clause 7, the batch they represent shall be deemed to comply with this standard. Should ei

24、ther of these additional samples fail, the batch represented by the test samples shall be deemed not to comply with this standard. 9 Inspection The purchaser shall notify the manufacturer when placing the order if it is his intention to inspect the material at the manufacturers works. The manufactur

25、er shall afford the purchaser all reasonable facilities to satisfy himself that the material complies with the standard. For this purpose the purchaser or his representative may, by prior arrangement, attend to inspect the material, to select and identify the test samples for testing and to witness

26、the tests being made. 10 Facilities for testing The manufacturer shall furnish and prepare the necessary test samples and carry out the tests specified in this standard. If testing is done at his own works, the manufacturer shall supply the necessary labour and appliances. If there are not facilitie

27、s at his own works, the manufacturer shall arrange for the tests to be done elsewhere. 11 Packaging The flux shall be packaged in suitable durable containers with replaceable airtight closures so that the flux will continue to meet the requirements of clause 5. 12 Marking Each flux container shall b

28、e marked with the following information: a) the number of this British Standard; b) the name and address of the flux manufacturer; c) the batch number; d) any recommendations on use and storage temperature of the flux; e) a warning that the flux should be kept from contact with the skin and eyes. 13

29、 Manufacturers certificate When required by the purchaser and stated on the enquiry and order, the manufacturer shall certify that the flux complies with the requirements of this standard.BS5245:1975 2 BSI 05-1999 Appendix A Method for the determination of halogen content A.1 Principle. Oxalic acid

36、ing the formula: where Appendix B Solderability test B.1 Principle of test. A standard volume of60/40 tin/lead solder is melted on the flat, horizontal surface of a piece of stainless steel strip in contact with the flux under defined conditions. The area to which the solder spreads and fully adhere

37、s to the stainless steel surface is taken as a measure of solderability. Heating is carried out by floating the stainless steel test piece in a bath of a molten low melting point alloy. B.2 Materials required B.2.1 Stainless steel. Ten flat 352mm squares shall be cut from0.71mm thick strip complying

38、 with the requirements of BS1449-4,302S17. Each square shall be prepared by first degreasing by immersion in a solvent such as acetone, followed by dry grinding by hand one surface to a180grit finish. After grinding, the squares shall be handled only with clean tweezers or tongs and shall be re-imme

39、rsed in a solvent such as acetone to wash off any particles of abrasive. B.2.2 Solder pellets. The composition of the solder pellets shall comply with the requirements of BS219 grade K (60% tin40% lead solder) and shall have a volume of20 1mm 3 . The pellets shall be blanked from strip not less than

40、1.5mm in thickness. B.3 Test apparatus B.3.1 Heating bath. The heating bath shall be either round, not less than75mm diameter, or rectangular, not less than75mm 75mm, and shall contain an alloy such as tin/lead solder, with a melting point not greater than200C, to a depth of not less than25mm. The t

41、emperature of the bath shall be maintained at3005C during the test. 1) Whatman no. 41 is suitable. 2) 2ml of nitrobenzene may be added to assist coagulation of the precipitate. %Cl 5 T () 0.0709 0.5 m - = T = volume (ml) of ammonium thiocyanate solution (0.02N approx.) used (corrected for blank) cal

42、culated in terms of a 0.02N solution m = mass (g) of sample taken.BS5245:1975 BSI 05-1999 3 B.3.2 Jig for holding stainless steel test pieces. Throughout the testing cycle the stainless steel test piece shall be maintained in a horizontal position. Means shall be provided for smoothly lowering it on

43、to the surface of the molten alloy and then raising it without vibration at the completion of the heating cycle. During the heating cycle, the test piece shall float freely on the molten alloy and shall not be in contact with any portion of the jig. The jig shall have a low heat capacity and should

44、preferably be made of thin gauge metal, which is not wetted by solder, such as titanium, aluminium or stainless steel. The design of jig shown in Figure 1 has been found to be suitable. B.4 Test procedure. A stainless steel square, prepared in the manner described in B.2.1 shall be placed in the jig

45、 with its ground face uppermost. The flux shall be applied as a circular layer,0.25mm to0.50mm thick and not less than25mm diameter, on the central region of the stainless steel square. (Such a layer is conveniently produced by the use of a0.25mm thick stainless steel template with a25mm diameter ap

46、erture, and a straight edged piece of metal, e.g.a razor blade. The template is placed on the stainless steel test piece, the circular cavity is filled with a slight excess of flux, the straight edge is drawn across the cavity to remove excess flux and the template is then removed.) After skimming a

47、ny dross off the surface of the molten metal in the heating bath, the square shall be lowered on to the surface of the molten metal under the conditions defined in B.3.2, where it shall remain floating for20s. A solder pellet, as defined in B.2.2, shall then be placed on the flux at the centre of th

48、e square and, after a further period of30s, the square shall be raised to a height sufficient to allow the solder on its upper surface to solidify. The square shall not be removed from the jig until the solder is completely solid, and any accidental vibration during cooling shall render the test inv

49、alid. Should any one test produce a solder patch that is very oval or irregular in shape, it may be discounted and repeated. This test procedure shall be repeated for a total of ten stainless steel squares. B.5 Measurement of area of solder spread. After washing off the flux residues in running water, the area of spread of the solder shall be measured. A transparent version of the grid shown in Figure 2 has been found to be a suitable means of measuring the area of solder spread. In cases of dispute, the area of
