EN 12438:2017 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard classifies magnesium alloys for cast anodes into a number of grades suitable for the applications for which they might be used. In this European Standard, a new designation system by number, as established in EN 1754 [1], is given. NOTE This designation system by number is based on the structure and rules of EN 10027–2 [2] and so corresponds with the European numbering system for steel and other materials. SIST EN 12438:2017



EN 12438:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the grades and the corresponding requirements for magnesium alloys for cast anodes. This European Standard specifies 2 groups of cast magnesium alloy grades by a classification based on chemical composition. The first group deals with magnesium alloy ingots for anodes. The second group deals with magnesium alloy anode castings. This European Standard specifies chemical composition, designation, testing and inspection documentation. This European Standard does not cover technical delivery conditions for magnesium alloy anode castings (see EN 1559-1 [3] and EN 1559-5 [4]). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 10204, Metallic products - Types of inspection documents EN ISO 80000-1:2013, Quantities and units - Part 1: General (ISO 80000-1:2009 + Cor 1:2011) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 anode electrode where oxidation reactions take place 3.2 galvanic anode anode attached to a metal object to inhibit the corrosion of the object 4 Designations 4.1 Material The material shall be designated either by symbol or by number as given in Table 1 and Table 2. NOTE The comparison of EN 12438 grade designations with the designations from the previous version of this European Standard is given in Annex C. 4.2 Casting process The following symbols shall be used to indicate the different casting processes: — S Sand casting; — K Permanent mould casting (gravity); — C Continuous casting. NOTE Examples of the use of these designations are given in EN 1559–5 [4]. SIST EN 12438:2017



EN 12438:2017 (E) 6 5 Order information The following information shall be supplied by the purchaser: a) the number of this European Standard; b) the designation of the material; c) any special requirements. All requirements shall be agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser by the time of acceptance of the order (e.g. technical delivery conditions according to EN 1559-1 [3] and EN 1559-5 [4]). 6 Manufacture The manufacturing process shall be left to the discretion of the manufacturer unless otherwise agreed at the time of ordering. NOTE The manufacturing process covers all operations up to the delivery of the product. 7 Requirements 7.1 Chemical composition The chemical composition of magnesium alloy ingots for anode castings shall be in accordance with the requirements given in Table 1. The chemical composition of magnesium alloy cast anodes shall be in accordance with the requirements given in Table 2. If not otherwise specified in the enquiry and order, the chemical composition of the ingots or the cast anodes shall relate to that of the samples taken from the melt at the time of pouring. 7.2 General condition of the product The product shall have a clean surface, in accordance with an agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser, and shall be free from visible and internal imperfections to a level also agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
