Specification and approval of welding procedures for production welding of steel castings (ISO 11970:2001)

This International Standard specifies how a welding procedure specification (WPS) for production welding of steel castings is approved.
It defines the conditions for the execution of welding procedure approval tests and the limits of validity of an approved welding procedure for all practical welding operations wi thin the range of essential variables.
Tests shall be carried out in accordance with this International Standard unless additional tests are specified by the purchaser or by agreement between the contracting parties.
This International Standard applies to the arc welding of steel castings. The principle of this International Standard may be applied to other fusion welding processes subject to agreement between the contracting parties.
In the case of specific service, material or manufacturing conditions, more comprehensive tests may be specified by the purchaser, than are specified by this International Standard, in order to gain more information, e.g; longitudinal weld tensile tests, bend tests, chemical analyses, ferrite determination in ausferritic stainless steels, elongation, Charpy "V" impact tests, radiography, etc. ;

Schweißverfahrensprüfung für das Produktionsschweißen von Stahlguss (ISO 11970:2001)

Diese Internationale Norm legt fest, wie die Schweißanweisung (welding procedure specification = WPS) für Produktionsschweißungen von Stahlguss anerkannt wird.
Es werden Bedingungen für die Durchführung der Anerkennung der Schweißverfahrensprüfungen und die Grenzen der Gültigkeit eines anerkannten Schweißverfahrens für alle praktischen schweißtechnischen Tätigkeiten im Rahmen des Bereichs der Einflussgrößen angegeben.
Prüfungen sind in Übereinstimmung mit dieser Internationalen Norm durchzuführen, wenn nicht zusätzliche Prüfungen durch den Kunden oder durch Übereinkunft zwischen den Vertragsparteien festgelegt werden.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt für das Lichtbogenschweißen von Stahlguss. Die Grundgedanken dieser Internationalen Norm können auch auf andere Schmelzschweißverfahren angewendet werden, falls es eine entsprechende Übereinkunft zwischen den Vertragsparteien gibt.
Umfassendere Prüfungen, als sie in dieser Internationalen Norm aufgeführt sind, können zur besseren Information des Kunden von diesem für bestimmte Einsatz-, Werkstoff-, oder Herstellbedingungen verlangt werden, z. B.: Längszugversuche an der Schweißnaht, Biegeversuche, Chemische Analysen, Ferrit-Bestimmung in austenitischen nichtrostenden Stählen, Dehnung, Charpy-V-Kerbschlagbiegeversuch, Durchstrahlung, usw.

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 11970 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 11,
Steel castings.
Annex B forms a normative part of this International Standard. Annex A is for information only.
