Brazing - Imperfections in brazed joints (ISO 18279:2023)

This document details a classification of imperfections that can occur in brazing joints. In addition, guidance is provided on quality levels and suggested limits for imperfections are detailed.
For requirements not covered by this document, reference can be made to other sources, such as statutory regulations, codes of practice and technical delivery conditions.
No information is given on how imperfections are to be assessed in individual cases because this depends on the requirements for the particular brazed joint. These imperfections are not always detectable by the use of non-destructive testing alone.
This document covers only imperfections that can occur in connection with brazing without the effect of any additional service loads. Only the type, shape and position of such imperfections are covered; no indication is given of the conditions of occurrence or causes.
For requirements for brazed joints which are relevant and essential to the particular function of the component, reference can be made to the relevant documentation, for example manufacturing documents or procedure sheets.
It is important that these requirements be precisely prescribed and that conformity with them be verifiable. Conformity can be established by testing either the brazed assembly itself or a test piece produced under comparable conditions.
This document does not specify requirements for acceptance levels for imperfections, since these will differ very markedly depending on the application, but it does suggest some quality levels which can be of value in the absence of more detailed information.

Hartlöten - Unregelmäßigkeiten in hartgelöteten Verbindungen (ISO 18279:2023)

In diesem Dokument ist eine detaillierte Einteilung von Unregelmäßigkeiten zusammengestellt, die in hartgelöteten Verbindungen auftreten können. Ergänzend wird eine Anleitung für Bewertungsgruppen gegeben und es werden konkrete Bewertungskriterien für Unregelmäßigkeiten vorgeschlagen.
Werden gegebene Anforderungen nicht durch dieses Dokument abgedeckt, können andere Quellen herangezogen werden, wie z. B. gesetzliche Bestimmungen, anerkannte Regeln der Technik oder technische Lieferbedingungen.
Es wird nichts darüber ausgesagt, wie die Unregelmäßigkeiten im Einzelfall zu beurteilen sind, da dies von den jeweiligen Anforderungen an die hartgelötete Verbindung abhängt. Diese Unregelmäßigkeiten sind nicht immer ausschließlich mittels zerstörungsfreier Prüfverfahren zu ermitteln.
Dieses Dokument umfasst nur Unregelmäßigkeiten, die in Verbindung mit dem Hartlöten auftreten können, ohne Einfluss von zusätzlichen Betriebsbelastungen. Festgelegt sind Art, Form und Lage dieser Unregelmäßigkeiten; Entstehungsbedingungen und Entstehungsursachen sind nicht angegeben.
Werden an eine hartgelötete Verbindung Anforderungen gestellt, die für die spezielle Funktion eines Bauteiles erforderlich und unverzichtbar sind, kann auf die relevanten Unterlagen verwiesen werden, z. B. Konstruktions- oder Arbeitsunterlagen.
Es ist notwendig, dass diese Anforderungen präzise beschrieben werden und dass ihre Einhaltung nachweisbar ist. Der Nachweis kann an der hartgelöteten Baugruppe oder einem Prüfstück, das unter vergleichbaren Bedingungen hergestellt wurde, erbracht werden.
Dieses Dokument legt keine Anforderungen für die Zulässigkeitsbereiche für Unregelmäßigkeiten fest, da diese sich, abhängig von der Anwendung, deutlich unterscheiden werden. Jedoch werden einige Bewertungsgruppen vorgeschlagen, die wertvoll sein können, wenn detailliertere Angaben nicht verfügbar sind.
Für die Zwecke dieses Dokumentes werden die Bereiche einer hartgelöteten Baugruppe wie in Bild 1 schematisch dargestellt bezeichnet.

Brasage fort - Défauts dans les assemblages réalisés par brasage fort (ISO 18279:2023)

Le présent document décrit en détail une classification des défauts qui peuvent apparaître dans les assemblages réalisés par brasage fort. De plus, elle constitue un guide sur les niveaux de qualité et décrit en détail les limites suggérées pour les défauts.
Pour les exigences qui ne sont pas couvertes par le présent document, il peut être fait référence à d’autres sources, telles que des règlements officiels, des codes de bonne pratique et des conditions techniques de livraison.
Aucune information n’est fournie sur la manière dont les défauts sont à évaluer dans chaque cas, car cette évaluation dépend des exigences relatives à l’assemblage réalisé par brasage fort en question. Ces défauts ne sont pas toujours détectables en utilisant seulement des essais non destructifs.
Le présent document ne traite que des défauts liés au brasage fort, et non pas à des charges supplémentaires de service. Seuls le type, la forme et la position de tels défauts sont traités; aucune indication sur les conditions ou les causes d’apparition n’est fournie.
Pour les exigences relatives aux assemblages réalisés par brasage fort qui revêtent un intérêt particulier et qui sont essentiels pour le fonctionnement de la pièce, il peut être fait référence à la documentation correspondante, par exemple aux documents de fabrication ou aux procédures.
Il est important que ces exigences soient indiquées précisément et que la conformité à ces exigences soit vérifiable. La conformité peut être établie en soumettant à l’essai soit l’élément brasé lui -même, soit une pièce d’essai produite dans des conditions comparables. Il convient que les exigences soient établies et intégralement reportées dans des documents avant que toute classification soit entreprise.
Le présent document ne spécifie pas d’exigences relatives aux niveaux d’acceptation des défauts car ceux-ci diffèrent largement selon l’application, mais elle propose des niveaux de qualité qui peuvent être utiles s’il n’existe pas d’informations plus détaillées.

Trdo spajkanje - Nepravilnosti v trdo spajkanih spojih (ISO 18279:2023)

Ta dokument določa klasifikacijo nepravilnosti, ki se lahko pojavijo v trdo spajkanih spojih. Poleg tega so podane smernice o stopnjah kakovosti in priporočene meje za nepravilnosti.
Za zahteve, ki jih ne zajema ta dokument, je lahko dodano sklicevanje na druge vire, kot so zakonski predpisi, kodeks ravnanja in tehnični dobavni pogoji.
Informacije o načinu ocenjevanja v posameznih primerih niso podane, ker je to odvisno od zahtev, ki veljajo za določen trdo spajkan spoj. Te nepravilnosti niso vedno zaznane, če je uporabljeno samo neporušitveno preskušanje.
Ta dokument obravnava samo nepravilnosti, ki se lahko pojavijo v zvezi s spajkanjem brez vpliva morebitnih dodatnih obratovalnih obremenitev. Zajeti so tip, oblika in mesta teh nepravilnosti, vendar pogoji in vzroki pojava niso podani.
Za zahteve za trdo spajkane spoje, ki so pomembne ali bistvene za določeno delovanje komponente, se je mogoče sklicevati na ustrezno dokumentacijo, npr. dokumente o izdelavi ali postopku.
Pomembno je, da so te zahteve natančno predpisane in da je mogoče skladnost z njimi preveriti. Skladnost je mogoče določiti s preskušanjem samega spajkanega sklopa ali preskušanca, izdelanega pod primerljivimi pogoji.
Ta dokument ne določa zahtev za ravni sprejemanja nepravilnosti, saj se
te zelo razlikujejo glede na uporabo, vseeno pa priporoča nekatere stopnje kakovosti, ki so lahko
koristne ob odsotnosti podrobnejših informacij.

ISO 18279:2023(E)
Introduction
Brazed joints usually contain imperfections of various types, some of which are detrimental in almost
every case while others can be detrimental or harmless, depending entirely on the service requirements
of the joint in question. Therefore, it is often necessary to classify the imperfections in a brazed joint
and then try to assess the significance of their effects on the behaviour of the joint in service. The
classification is relatively easy and Table 1 describes the imperfections that most commonly occur. The
assessment of significance is not easy (see also Annex A).
For welded joints, there has been extensive work carried out for many years on the significance of
imperfections in service; however, such work has not been carried out on brazed joints. Moreover,
the work on welded joints is only rarely relevant to brazed joints, mainly because of differences in
geometry and stressing. Therefore, this document cannot give definitive quality levels for brazed joints.
These can only be produced as experience is gained from industrial applications. However, Annex B
gives some suggestions for quality levels for general applications, which can be of help where detailed
information is not available. The use of quality levels can only be successful if the imperfections that
are relevant to the application of the brazed joint are determined.
