Scope

This European Standard applies to steel castings for pressure-containing parts. It includes aterials which are used for the manufacture of components subject to pressure vessel construction codes. This standard relates to castings manufactured from unalloyed and alloyed steel grades (characterised by their composition and mechanical properties). Part I specifies general technical delivery conditions. The standard comprises three other parts specifying requirements for: - steel grades for use at room and elevated temperatures (see EN 10213-2); - steel grades for use at low temperatures - (see EN 10213-3); - austenitic and austenitic-ferritic steel grades - (see EN 10213-4). In cases where castings are joined by welding by the founder this EN applies. In cases where castings are welded - to wrought products (plates1 tubes1 forgings...); - or by non founders; this European Standard does not apply.
