As a result of the complex interactions between the various influencing factors, the extent of corrosion can only be expressed in terms of likelihood. This document is a guidance document and does not set explicit rules for the use of hot dip galvanized ferrous materials in water systems. It can be used to minimize the likelihood of corrosion damages occurring by:  assisting in designing, installing and operating systems from an anti-corrosion point of view;  evaluating the need for additional corrosion protection methods for a new or existing system;  assisting in failure analysis, when failures occur in order to prevent repeat failures occurring. However, a corrosion expert, or at least a person with technical training and experience in the corrosion field is required to give an accurate assessment of corrosion likelihood or failure analysis.
The types of corrosion considered for galvanized products are the following:  uniform corrosion;  pitting corrosion;  selective corrosion;  bimetallic corrosion. The various possibilities are shown schematically in Tables 1 and 2. Table 1 — Uniform corrosion and its consequences
Low rate uniform corrosion High rate uniform corrosion Corrosion effects on zinc coating Formation of a protective layer on residual zinc coating, which remains during full service life. Complete loss of zinc coating. Corrosion effects on the base metal
None Uniform attack, low mass loss; protective rust layer Non-uniform attack, pits, tubercles Possible corrosion damage (during projected service life) None Initially high concentration of metal ions in water Reduction in free pipe bore size
Table 2 — Localized corrosion and its consequences
Pitting corrosion Selective corrosion Corrosion effects on the coating Localized loss of coating Intergranular attack leading to complete loss of the zinc phase Corrosion effects on the base metal Pits and tubercles Non-uniform general corrosion Possible corrosion damage (during projected service life) Reduction of free pipe bore size, contamination of water by iron corrosion products, blockage of system components, wall perforation Initial release of solid zinc corrosion products into water, contamination of water by iron corrosion products SIST EN 12502-3:2005

4.2.1 General Experience shows that corrosion damage to galvanized products because of uniform corrosion can only occur if the corrosion velocity is extremely high and there is no possibility of stable protecting rust layers being formed. Uniform corrosion can manifest itself in different ways (see Table 1). Uniform corrosion leads to the formation of layers consisting of zinc hydroxycarbonates, which, depending on the carbonic acid species concentration, can offer the product greater or lesser degrees of protection. If the corrosion rate is sufficiently low, no complete loss of the zinc layer will occur during the projected service life. Protective layers will form on the remaining zinc phase of the metal coating. At a higher corrosion rate, the metal coating will be completely removed during the projected service life. The concentration of iron corrosion products in the surface layer increases during the corrosion of the zinc-iron alloy phases. Further corrosion processes eventually result in the formation of a surface layer consisting predominantly of aged iron corrosion products, which provide lasting corrosion protection. If the corrosion rate of the coating is too high, or the concentration of the components forming the carbonic acid system too low to allow the formation of a protective layer, the base metal will be non-uniformly attacked after the consumption of the metal coating. The consequence can be contamination of the water by iron corrosion products, encrustation and clogging of the pipes or wall penetration by pitting corrosion. Although zinc corrosion products are only sparingly soluble, zinc ions are released into water.
The concentration of zinc ions because of dissolution of corrosion products will depend on:  the concentration of the carbonic acid species in the water;  the duration of stagnation of water in pipes;  the age of the installation;  the dilution caused by mi
