Ferronickel ingots or pieces - Sampling for analysis (ISO 8050:1988)

Applies to ferronickel lots in ingot or piece form with a view to obtaining a representative laboratory sample for the determination of the chemical composition of the lot. A choice is to be made between a first procedure that can be applied at the producer's plant during casting or a second procedure that can be applied to lots as delivered at the buyer's premises. Includes two alternatives for sample taking (drilling and milling). Each party is entitled to participate in sampling operations.

Ferro-nickel en lingots ou en morceaux - Echantillonnage pour analyse (ISO 8050:1988)

S'applique aux câbles coaxiaux de communication. Elle spécifie plusieurs méthodes d'essai pour déterminer:
- la résistance du diélectrique au flux thermique (résistance du diélectrique à la distorsion mécanique induite par la contrainte radiale imposée par le conducteur intérieur à température élevée);
- la résistance à la chaleur (précédemment "résistance au choc thermique" résistance du diélectrique ou de la gaine à température élevée);
- le comportement des câbles semi-rigides à la chaleur (aptitude de la structure des câbles semi-rigides à résister à la dilatation du diélectrique à température élevée);
- la stabilité dimensionnelle (déplacement des éléments constituants du câble les uns par rapport aux autres afin de démontrer l'aptitude d'un câble à être utilisé avec des connecteurs).

Overview

EN 28050:1992 - Ferronickel ingots or pieces - Sampling for analysis (ISO 8050:1988) defines how to obtain a representative laboratory sample from ferronickel lots in ingot or piece form for the determination of chemical composition. This CEN-adopted standard aligns with ISO 8050:1988 and applies both at the producer’s plant and at the buyer’s premises, providing a harmonized approach to sampling ferroalloys used in metallurgy and alloy production.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and purpose: Ensures that samples taken from ferronickel ingots or pieces are representative of the lot so chemical analysis (e.g., Ni, Fe and impurity determination) reflects true composition.
  • Two procedural choices:
    • On-site sampling during casting (producer’s plant) - for sampling at origin while ingots/pieces are produced.
    • Post-delivery sampling at buyer’s premises - for lots as delivered, enabling acceptance testing.
  • Two sampling methods:
    • Drilling - mechanical extraction of material from ingots/pieces.
    • Milling - surface removal or sectioning to obtain sample material.
  • Joint sampling rights: Both buyer and producer (or their representatives) are expressly entitled to participate in sampling operations to ensure transparency and mutual acceptance.
  • Representative sampling focus: Emphasis on procedures that minimize bias and variability so laboratory results are reliable for quality control, contract compliance and certification.

Applications

EN 28050:1992 is practical for organizations and activities such as:

  • Ferronickel producers - to implement standardized sampling during casting for quality assurance and shipment documentation.
  • Buyers and alloy consumers - to verify delivered lot composition against contract specifications.
  • Metallurgical testing laboratories - to receive properly obtained, traceable samples for chemical analysis.
  • Quality inspectors and certification bodies - to audit sampling practice and enforce compliance in trade of ferroalloys.
  • Trading and procurement teams - to define sampling clauses in contracts and resolve disputes based on agreed sampling procedures.

Related standards

  • ISO 8050:1988 - referenced international specification that EN 28050:1992 is based on.
  • Other CEN/ISO ferroalloy sampling and testing standards may be relevant when performing downstream chemical analyses or mechanical testing (consult national standards bodies for current related references).

This standard is essential for ensuring consistent, reliable sampling of ferronickel ingots and pieces, supporting accurate chemical analysis, fair trade, and quality control in the ferroalloy supply chain.
