Thermal spraying - Zinc, aluminium and their alloys - Part 2: Execution of corrosion protection systems (ISO 2063-2:2017)

This document specifies requirements for corrosion protection of steel structures, components or
parts, which are coated by thermal spraying of zinc, aluminium or their alloys.
This document specifies requirements for coating manufacturers of surface preparation, thermal
spraying, testing and post treatments, e.g. sealing of the coating. This document applies to metallic
corrosion protection coatings in the case of new fabrication in the workshop, as well as on-site and for
repair on-site after assembly.
Requirements for coating thickness, minimum adhesive strength and surface conditions, specified in a
coating specification, are given.
Recommendations are given for suitable process steps and quality assurance measures for new
production and maintenance and for supervising of corrosion protection works.
This document covers the application of thermal-sprayed zinc, aluminium and their alloys for protection
against corrosion in the temperature range between –50 °C to +200 °C. Heat-resistant protective
coatings of aluminium are covered by ISO 17834 and are not in the scope of this document.
This document specifies requirements for the equipment, the working place and the qualification of the

Die vorliegende Norm legt Anforderungen an den Korrosionsschutz von Stahlbauten, -bauteilen oder -teilen fest, die durch thermisches Spritzen von Zink, Aluminium oder deren Legierungen beschichtet werden.
Diese Norm legt Anforderungen an den Hersteller der Schicht hinsichtlich der Oberflächenvorbereitung, des thermischen Spritzens, der Prüfung und Nachbehandlungen, wie z. B. Versiegeln der Schicht, fest. Diese Norm gilt sowohl für metallische Korrosionsschutzschichten bei Neufertigung in der Werkstatt oder auf der Baustelle als auch für Reparaturen auf der Baustelle nach der Montage.
Anforderungen an die Schichtdicke, die Mindesthaftzugfestigkeit und die Oberflächenzustände, festgelegt in einer Schichtspezifikation, müssen zur Verfügung stehen.
Es werden Empfehlungen für geeignete Prozessschritte und Maßnahmen zur Qualitätssicherung bei der Neufertigung und Instandsetzung und zur Überwachung von Korrosionsschutzarbeiten gegeben.
Diese Norm gilt für die Anwendung thermisch gespritzter Schutzschichten aus Zink, Aluminium und deren Legierungen gegen Korrosion im Temperaturbereich zwischen −50 °C und +200 °C unter Beachtung der Einsatzbedingungen von Versiegelungsmitteln. Hitzebeständige Schutzschichten aus Aluminium werden in ISO 17834 behandelt und fallen nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm.
Diese Norm legt Anforderungen an die Geräte, den Arbeitsplatz und die Qualifikation des Spritz- und Prüfpersonals fest.
ANMERKUNG Teil 1 dieser Normenreihe mit dem Titel "Planung des Korrosionsschutzsystems - Aspekte der Bauteil-gestaltung und Qualitätsanforderungen" ist an den Konstrukteur und den Projektingenieur des Korrosionsschutzsystems gerichtet.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
