15、EN 16296:2012 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard should be used as a reference in drafting of application codes and/or other application standards. It contains a simplified selection of imperfections based on the designations given in EN 14728, Imperfections in thermoplastic welds Classificat

16、ion. Some imperfections according to EN 14728 have been used directly and some have been grouped together. The basic numerical referencing system from EN 14728 has been used. The purpose of this standard is to define quality levels based on typical imperfections, which might occur in normal fabricat

17、ion. It may be used within a quality system for the production of factory welded joints. It provides three sets of dimensional values from which a selection can be made for a particular application. The quality level necessary in each case should be defined by the application standard or the fabrica

18、tor in conjunction with the user and/or other parties concerned. The level should be prescribed before the start of production, preferably at the enquiry or order stage. The quality levels given in this standard are intended to provide basic reference data and are not specifically related to any par

19、ticular application. They refer to the types of welded joints in a fabrication and not to the complete product or component itself. It is possible, therefore, that different quality levels are applied to individual welded joints in the same product or component. The choice of quality level for any a

20、pplication should take account of design considerations, subsequent processing, mode of stressing (e.g. static, dynamic), service conditions (e.g. pressure, temperature, environment) and consequences of failure. Economic factors are also important and should include not only the cost of welding but

21、also of inspection, test and repair. Although this European Standard includes types of imperfections relevant to the processes given in Clause 1, only those which are applicable to the process and application in question need to be considered. Imperfections are quoted in terms of their actual dimens

22、ions. However their detection and evaluation may require the use of one or more methods of non-destructive testing. It should be noted that the detection and sizing of imperfections is dependent on the inspection methods and the extent of testing specified in the application standard or contract. Th

23、e need for detection is not the subject of this standard. This European Standard is directly applicable to visual examination of welds or test specimens. It does not include details of recommended methods of detection and sizing. The indication provided by non-destructive testing should not be used

24、directly for the evaluation of quality levels. Therefore, it needs to be supplemented by requirements for examinations, inspection and testing. BS EN 16296:2012EN 16296:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard provides quality levels for imperfections in thermoplastics welded joints. It applies to

25、material thickness above 2,0 mm. Three quality levels are given in order to permit application for a wide range of welded fabrication. They are designated by symbols B, C and D, where B is the most stringent. The quality levels refer to production quality and not to the fitness-for-purpose (see 3.2)

26、 of the manufactured product. This European Standard applies to the following thermoplastic materials: Table 1 Abbreviation Material description ABS Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene plastic ECTFE Ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer FEP Fluorinated ethylene propylene PB Polybutylene PE Polyethy

27、lene PFA Perfluoroalkoxy PP-B Polypropylene block copolymer PP-H Polypropylene homopolymer PP-R Polypropylene random copolymer PVC-C Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride PVC-U Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (rigid PVC) PVDF Polyvinylidene fluoride and to the following welding processes: Heated tool weld

28、ing; Electrofusion welding; Hot gas welding using filler rod only; Extrusion welding; BS EN 16296:2012EN 16296:2012 (E) 6 Solvent welding of pipes. 2 Normative reference The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its applicatio

29、n. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 14728, Imperfections in thermoplastic welds Classification 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following te

30、rms and definitions apply 3.1 quality level description of the qualities of a weld on the basis of type and size of selected imperfections 3.2 fitness-for-purpose ability of a product, process or service to serve a defined purpose under specific conditions 4 Quality levels 4.1 Classification Three q

31、uality levels are defined as B, C and D in order to permit application for a wide range of welded fabrications (see Table 2). Table 2 Quality levels for weld imperfections Symbol Requirement B Stringent C IntermediateD Moderate The purpose of this standard is to define quality levels based on typica

32、l imperfections, which might occur in normal fabrications and are classified in EN 14728. It may be used within a quality system for the production of factory welded joints. It provides three sets of dimensional values from which a selection can be made for a particular application. The quality leve

33、l necessary in each case should be defined by the application standard or the fabricator in conjunction with the user and/or other parties concerned. The level should be prescribed before the start of production, preferably at the enquiry or order stage. For specific applications, additional require

34、ments not covered by this standard may need to be prescribed. These additional requirements shall be defined as quality level A. BS EN 16296:2012EN 16296:2012 (E) 7 4.2 Choice of quality level For the choice of the quality level, the following factors, among others, shall be taken into account: mech

35、anical loading (static, dynamic); environment (media, temperature); material properties (ductile, brittle); manufacturing conditions (workshop, construction site, welding in constrained condition); operating conditions; potential danger in the event of failure. 5 Requirements for welded joints The r

36、equirements for the above mentioned quality levels (B, C and D) are listed as follows: Heated tool butt welds: Table 3; Heated tool socket welds: Table 4; Electrofusion welds: Table 5; Hot gas welds: Table 6; Extrusion welds: Table 7; Solvent welds in pipes: Table 8. Different types of imperfection

37、occurring simultaneously at any cross-section of the joint may need special consideration and advice should be sought from the product manufacturer. Any two adjacent imperfections separated by a distance smaller than the major dimension of the smaller imperfection shall be considered as a single imp

38、erfection. In certain circumstances, it is necessary to machine the completed weld. In this case, the weld shall be examined both before and after machining.
