Manufacturing Instructions SN 200

GENERAL Part 1

The Manufacturing Instructions SN 200 specify the requirements made on products, materials and
manufacturing methods. The instructions are classified by manufacturing methods irrespective of the product.

They describe minimum requirements that have to be complied with unless otherwise indicated in orders,
drawings or other manufacturing documents.

The Manufacturing Instructions SN 200 apply to the manufacture of components of SMS Demag AG and of its
subsidiaries. The applicability of SN 200 is indicated in drawings and/or contracts and/or purchase orders.

Every manufacturer has the obligation to comply with the overriding requirements specified in parts 7 to 10 in
addition to the manufacturing methods for the products of his scope of supply and services.

The correct and complete delivery/performance of the supplies and services are recorded by SMS Demag in a
supplier evaluation system. This evaluation covers the quality, price, faithfulness to deadlines and
completeness of the documents, test records and certificates associated with the scope of supply and
services.

We recommend that all suppliers introduce a quality assurance system on the basis of ISO 9001.

Referenced standards are indicated in the individual chapters.

Rules and directives are German and European sets of rules, codes and regulations

DIN standards are national standards of the Federal Republic of Germany

EN standards are standards of the European Union

ISO standards are standards of the International Organization for Standardization

DIN EN standards are European standards incorporated in German language in the national set of standards
DIN ISO standards are international standards incorporated in German language in the national set of standards
DIN EN ISO standards are international standards that were made part of the European standards and incorporated
in German language in the national set of standards.

Example: DIN ISO 286 ISO 286

DIN EN 10083 EN 10083
DIN EN ISO 9001 ISO 9001

There is, however, not a German-language version (DIN-ISO) for every international standard (ISO)!

Tolerancing principle

Contrary to the stipulations made in ISO or DIN, the tolerancing principle of "envelope requirements" applies to
tolerances of shape and parallelism in all manufacturing methods.

All dimensions are subject to the envelope requirements as specified in DIN 7167.

This means that all tolerances of shape and parallelism shall be within the specified general or ISO tolerances.

Hazardous materials / environmental protection

If safety data sheets according to the hazardous materials rules exist for substances and preparations to be supplied by you
or for substances which are used as constituents of products to be supplied by you, these sheets have to be joined to the
supply with indication of our purchase order number.
If such sheets do not exist, you undertake to supply with the consignment, in due time and in a well visible way, other product
information relevant for environmental protection and safety so as to allow proper transport and handling, storage and
disposal of the substances/preparations by SMS Demag or by our customer in accordance with the regulations.

Load-carrying attachments
SN 195 specifies the basic requirements to be met by load-carrying attachments in case of own design and own manufacture.
We recommend having load-carrying attachments, for which basic data are specified by SMS Demag, designed,
manufactured and inspected by specialised companies that possess the appropriate qualifications for load-carrying
attachments.

Pipe classification
SMS Demag has drawn up a standardisation of all components of pipe conduits. This standardisation is given in Group 18 of
our company standards and shall be observed.

Material data
The material data given in drawings and bills of materials are based on specifications taken from material and product
standards. These properties are shown in SN 359 on "Materials" and shall be observed.

Radioactivity
All components and products shall be free of any ionising radiation that exceeds the natural characteristic radiation of the
respective material.
Ionising radiation exceeding the characteristic radiation of components and products is considered to exist when at the point
of time of an examination a radiation value is found that is higher than the value of ambient background radiation. SMS
Demag reserve the right of refusing the acceptance of any parts found to possess such ionising radiation.

Residual magnetism
The residual magnetism of all parts shall not exceed 800 A/m at the time of their delivery. Parts transported with lifting
magnets and/or checked for surface defects with full-wave direct-current testers shall be demagnetised if necessary. Checks
for residual magnetism shall always be performed with an appropriate field intensity meter. If requested by SMS Demag, the
check shall be proven and/or certified.

SN 200 Part 2 : 2007-02

1 Casting
Casting is a process in which liquid steel, ferrous and non-ferrous metals are filled in a mould to produce parts of defined ge-
ometry and properties and of a shape which is close to the finished dimensions.

1.1 Surface qualities

If no drawing indications are made, the following applies according to DIN EN 1370:
for cast steel and non-ferrous metals for cast iron
4S1 for blasted surfaces 3S1 for blasted surfaces
4S2 for ground surfaces 3S2 for ground surfaces

1.2 General tolerances

The authoritative standard for the definition of the general tolerances is DIN ISO 8062. These general tolerances apply to
unmachined faces of metal casting blanks. Half the respective general casting tolerance is applicable to a dimension between
a machined and an unmachined surface for which no individual tolerance is indicated. The values of the general tolerances
are indicated in the tables 1 to 3 under the selected grade of tolerance CT.

1.3 Degrees of accuracy

The casting tolerances (CT) shown against a shaded background in tables 1 and 3 are SMS Demag standard for the respec-
tive nominal dimension range.
The grade of tolerance to be selected depends upon the biggest nominal dimension of the workpiece. All dimensions of this
casting blank have the same grade of tolerance, this means that only one grade of tolerance can be assigned to a casting. If
smaller admissible casting tolerances are required, they shall be indicated in the drawing at the respective nominal dimension.

1.6 Mould tapers

Additional tapers on shaped elements required to allow the separating of a casting or pattern from a mould. The deviations
from the nominal shape and dimensions of the raw casting that are due to mould tapers are not considered as failures to meet
the tolerances. The mould taper shall be averaged in relation to the nominal dimension, mould taper ±. Mould tapers on sur-
faces to be machined shall be arranged on the raw casting in such a way that the finished dimensions are kept.

1.8 Wall thicknesses

Wall thicknesses in CT grades use the next higher grade (see Tables 1 and 3).

1.9 Machining allowances

Machining allowances on raw castings are excess material which makes it possible to remove shortcomings due to casting
from the surface by subsequent machining and to attain the desired surface condition and the necessary dimensional accu-
racy.

The amount of material to be removed by machining also depends upon the actual dimensions of the raw casting. These ac-
tual dimensions may vary within the range of the specified and permissible general tolerances or the tolerance indicated for a
dimension. Allowance is to be understood as allowance for every surface to be machined, this means on rotational bodies or
for machining on two sides the allowance is required two times.
The specifications stated in Table 6 are based on experience gathered by SMS Demag; the values deviate from the
machining allowances given in DIN EN ISO 8062-3.

Unless otherwise specified, the necessary machining allowance as in Table 6 applies to the entire raw casting. The machining
allowance depends on the biggest outside dimension of the raw casting and not on the casting tolerance grade CT.
When parts are supplied in rough-machined condition, the foundry is, irrespective of Table 6, responsible for providing the ne-
cessary machining allowance for attaining the rough-machined and dross-free condition.

2 Forging
Forging is hot shaping by die forging or open-die forging to obtain a shape which is close to the finished dimensions of the
component. The shaping process creates a largely uniform structure over the entire cross-section.

2.1 Forgings, general

The following requirements shall be fulfilled:
- If no particular requirements are made, the technical conditions of delivery and quality specifications can be taken from the
relevant DIN, EN, ISO or SEW material standards. When particular requirements are made, the quality specifications for
these forgings are given in the drawing on drawing sticker F1001.
- If heat treatment is required for reasons of manufacture, this treatment shall be arranged for by the forging shop and/or the
machining shop.

2.2 External condition

The external condition shall be examined in the areas marked on the workpiece using the magnetic particle method as in DIN
EN 10228-1 or the liquid penetrant method as in DIN EN 10228-2. The surfaces to be examined shall be free of scale, oil,
grease, machining marks, paint and any other foreign matter that may adversely affect the detection sensitivity or the interpre-
tation of the indications found. The quality classes specified in the DIN EN standards are not applied. The entire work-
piece shall be absolutely free of cracks.

2.3 Internal condition

The internal condition shall be examined using ultrasonic testing as in DIN EN 10228-3 and 4.

2.3.1 Surface condition

General
The surfaces to be examined shall be free of scale, oil, grease, machining marks, paint coats and any other foreign matter
that may adversely affect the detection sensitivity or the interpretation of the indications found.

Forgings supplied in the as-forged condition are considered acceptable when the specified quality class can be attained.

2.3.2 Surface finish

The surface finish shall be compatible with the required quality class, see Table 1.

Table 1

"x” marks the quality class that can be attained for the specified surface roughness.

2.3.3 Performance of the examination

Scanning shall be performed using the manual-contact pulse-echo technique. The necessary minimum scanning coverage
depends on the type of the forging and on whether grid scanning coverage or 100% scanning coverage is specified in the or-
der or drawing.
Table 2 specifies the requirements for scanning coverage at perpendicular sound incidence of the forging types 1, 2 and 3.
Table 3 specifies the requirements for scanning coverage at angular sound incidence for the forging types 3a and 3b which
have an outside diameter to inside diameter ratio of less than 1,6. The depth covered in circumferential scanning is limited by
the angle of incidence and the diameter of the forging.

3 Semi-finished products
Semi-finished products is the collective term for products of definite shape, but with at least one indefinite dimension. Such
products are sections, bars, rods, tubes, sheets and plates, boards, panels, strips and similar products made by rolling, draw-
ing, pressing or any other method and having constant cross-section along the length.

The designation "St" is allowed for steel components without particular strength requirements. The manufacture from different
semi-finished products is then left to the discretion of the manufacturer. Suitability for welding shall be taken into account. The
same applies by analogy if tensile strength requirements are made, but the types of smelting and treatment left open. In this
case the indication is "St with Rm min. …”.

3.1 General tolerances

The relevant documents for the general tolerances of steel products are the respective DIN and DIN EN standards for semi-
finished products.

3.2 Technical delivery conditions

The technical delivery conditions are specified in DIN EN 10021 and in the corresponding standards for semi-finished prod-
ucts.

3.3 Plate
The applicable standard for deviations in thickness and flatness of plates is DIN EN 10029, Table 1, class A, and Table 4,
class N.
The permissible deviations given in DIN EN 10029 for the nominal thickness range of 150 to 250 mm are also applicable to
plate thicknesses over 250 mm.
Use shall be made of plates having class A surface condition as in DIN EN 10163.

3.4 Inspection
The results of all inspections on the semi-finished product (primary material) set out below shall be certified in an inspection
certificate 3.1 as specified in DIN EN 10204.
If the inspections/tests stated have been made on the semi-finished product, component parts need not be tested and certi-
fied again. It shall be ensured, however, that the components are made from the tested semi-finished products.

1 Thermal cutting
1.1 Oxyfuel flame cutting
Oxyfuel flame cutting is a process of thermal cutting which uses a fuel gas-oxygen flame and cutting oxygen. The heat of the
heating flame and produced during combustion allows continuous combustion through the cutting oxygen. The oxides
produced, mixed with some molten metal, are driven out by the kinetic energy of the cutting oxygen jet. The kerf is produced
in the process.
The instructions/data apply to flame cuts of 3 mm to 300 mm.

1.2 Plasma arc cutting

Plasma arc cutting is a process of thermal cutting in which a constricted arc is used. In the arc polyatomic gases are
dissociated and partially ionized; monoatomic gases are partially ionized. The plasma arc thus generated has a high
temperature and high kinetic energy and melts or partially vaporizes the material and drives it off. The kerf is produced in the
process.
The instructions/data apply to plasma cuts of 1 mm to 150 mm.

1.3 Laser beam cutting

Laser beam cutting is a process of thermal cutting in which the focused laser beam supplies the energy required for cutting
which is then converted into heat in the material. The cutting process is supported by a gas jet. In laser beam cutting a
distinction is made between laser-beam oxygen cutting, fusion cutting and sublimation cutting.
The instructions/data apply to laser cuts of 0,5 mm to 40 mm.

1.4 Cut surface quality

1.4.1 Perpendicularity or angularity tolerance
Distance between two parallel straight lines between which the cut surface profile lies within the theoretical angle (for example
90° in the case of vertical cutting).

NOTE: The perpendicularity or angularity tolerance includes both the straightness and the flatness deviations. Figures 1 and
2 show the maximum effective deviations within the tolerance class.

1.4.3 Measuring points

1.4.3.1 Locations of the measuring points
The characteristic of perpendicularity or angularity tolerance u is determined only in a limited area of the cut surface. The area
shall be reduced by the dimension ∆a according to Table 1 from the upper and the lower cut surface edges (see Figure 1).

The reason for the reduced cut face profile is to allow for the melting at the top edge of the cut.

2.1.2 Bending of pipes

Cold bending of pipes shall be preferred to the welding-in of elbows. If drawings show welding elbows that can be replaced by
a cold-bent pipes taking into account the bigger bending radius, the manufacturing shop is free to use bent pipes instead of
elbows.
When pipes are shown in isometric drawings, compliance with the drawing indications shall be ensured.
Bending radii for cold-bent pipes are specified in Table 6 and in SN 740-1 and 2.

2.1.3 General tolerances

The general tolerances are specified in tables 7 and 8 according to DIN EN ISO 13920. These general tolerances correspond
to the welding tolerances and shall be applied to bent parts by analogy.

The following applies:

Tolerance category B for completely dimensioned pipe lines (for example pipe detail, isometric drawing) and for workpieces
produced by bending of flat products.

WELDING Part 4

Dimensions in mm

Field of application
The manufacturing instructions in this part of SN 200 apply to all welded components unless otherwise specified in draw-
ings and other manufacturing documents.
The welding standards applicable to the respective materials (DIN, DVS, SEW etc.) shall be observed.
Welding is a special process whose result (quality) cannot be fully assessed by subsequent examination of the pro-
duct.
The quality requirements for welding as in DIN EN 729 shall be fulfilled. We recommend establishing a quality assur-
ance system on the basis of DIN EN ISO 9001.

the parts to be welded either in sectional view or in the view of the part to be
welded.
1.1.2 Butt welds, partly and fully bevelled welds
Butt welds, partially and fully bevelled welds are represented in drawings in
section or in the view with symbols according to ISO 2553 (see 1.3) and with
indication of the weld depth s.
1.1.3 Welds for subsequent machining
Welds intended for subsequent machining are shown with dimensioning of the weld
depth as shown in Fig 1.
Fig. 1
1.1.4 Welds on pipe lines
The operating pressure of the pipe line shall be indicated. Welding symbols as in ISO 2553 (see 1.3) or data as in Table 13 are
shown only in exceptional cases.

1.1.5 Deposit welding

For deposit welding see SN 402.

1.2 Representation as in DIN EN 22553 (ISO 2553)

1.2.1 Elementary symbols for the categories of joints
The various categories of joints are each characterised by a symbol which, in general, is similar to the shape of the weld to be
made. The symbols characterise the shape, preparation and execution of the welds. The symbols do not determine the welding
process to be applied.

1.2.3 Supplementary symbols
Elementary symbols may be completed by a symbol which characterises the shape of the surface or the shape of the weld.
The absence of a supplementary symbol means that the shape of the surface shall comply with the weld quality indicated. A
combination of more than two supplementary symbols is not allowed.

1.3.2 Relation between arrow line and joint

The side of the joint to which the arrow line points is called the arrow side. The other side of the joint is called the opposite
side. The arrow line points preferably to the ”upper workpiece face”.

1.3.3 Position of the arrow line

When the butt welds are asymmetrical, the arrow line shall always point to the non-vertical flank of the joint, this means to the
workpiece which requires groove preparation. Example see Fig. 7b.

1.3.4 Position of the symbol with regard to the reference line

The symbol is placed either above or below the reference line.
- When the symbol is placed on the side of the solid reference line, the weld is on the arrow side of the joint (Fig. 5a).
- When the symbol is placed on the side of the dashed reference line, the weld is on the opposite side of the joint (Fig. 5b).
- When the welds are symmetrical, the dashed line is not used (Fig. 5c).

Note: tions/permits (for example ASME) can be accepted.
Their equivalence shall be proved by the contracting workshop before the beginning of manufacture.
 Page 7
SN 200 Part 4 : 2007-02

3.2 Weld preparation, general

The type of weld preparation must be selected by the contracting workshop as required for the welding procedure applied.
Deviations from the drawing indications are allowed only if the specified weld-depth and weld-quality requirements are ful-
filled.

The type of weld preparation is selected according to DIN EN ISO 9692 (ISO 9692), tables 11 and 12.

Deviations from DIN EN ISO 9692-1:

When full material penetration required, the indication shown below shall be made in the drawing at
the weld full penetration concerned. In case of demand joints full material penetration shall always be made,
even if this is not indicated on the drawing (see item 3.5.1.5).

3.3 Filler metals

All filler metals shall be stored and handled with care and in compliance with DIN EN 1011-1, item 8.2, and DIN EN 1011-2,
item 7.

3.4 Preheating
The welding areas shall be preheated as required for the respective material composition. The minimum preheat temperature
Tp is determined according to SEW 086 and SEW 088 on the basis of carbon equivalent CET. In the case of multi-pass
welds, the terms “minimum preheat temperature” and “minimum interpass temperature” shall have the same meaning. These
instructions apply to steels of CET ≤ 0,5.

Mn + Mo Cr + Cu Ni
CET = C + + + in (%)
10 20 40

Tp = 750 x CET – 150 (°C)

Fig. 13 Minimum values of preheat temperature Tp as a function of carbon equivalent CET.

Measuring of the preheat, interpass and preheat maintenance temperatures shall be on the basis of
DIN EN ISO 13916.

3.5 Execution of the weld

3.5.1 Execution of the weld, general

The surfaces in the weld area shall be cleared of scale, slag, rust, paint, oil, grease and moisture prior to assembling.
To avoid stray currents and their effects (destruction of electric protective conductors etc.), the welding current return line shall
be connected direct to the workpiece to be welded or the workpiece support (welding table, welding grid, assembly plate etc.).
Steel structures, rails, pipe lines, bars and similar objects shall not be used as current conductors unless they are the work-
piece to be welded.
Tack-welds shall be at least 40 mm long. All cracks, lack-of-fusion spots and clusters of pores in tack welds shall be removed
before welding.
If accessible, the roots of two-sided welds having full material penetration shall be gouged, checked for absence of cracks and
counterwelded.
Unless otherwise specified in the drawing, weld seams shall be closed around all corners. This applies with the only exception
of ribs and webs as in Figure 18.
Shrinkage stresses due to one-side welding-on of parts shall be compensated by counterheating.
When postweld heat treatment is made, the welding shop shall open all hermetically closed hollows prior to annealing by drill-
ing a 10 mm round hole in a suitable place on the neutral axis, even if such measure is not expressly indicated in the drawing.
Upon heat treatment, these round holes shall be closed again. When plates are welded on, a short section shall be left with-
out weld and closed by welding after heat treatment.

Fig. 13 Fig. 14

The slot width ”b” depends on the plate thicknesses t1 and t2 and the necessary weld junction;
for t1 ≤ 15 mm, b is min. 0,5 x t1, but at least 4 mm,
for t1 > 15 mm, b is min. 15 mm.
3.5.1.2 Plug weld
Plug welds are allowed only for plate thicknesses t1 ≤ 40 mm.
Hole diameter d = t1, but at least 20 mm, with preparation as in Fig. 14.
3.5.1.3 Weld thickness on butt welds, partly and fully bevelled
welds
The weld thickness of these welds shall correspond to the indicated
weld depth.
For butt and fillet welds the max. weld reinforcement (ü) is deter-
mined by the weld quality.
For partly and fully bevelled welds the weld reinforcement (ü) for sin-
gle-bevel and double-bevel welds has been determined to be 0 to 0,3
x weld depth (s) and for single-J, double-J and square-edge butt
welds, to be 0 to 0.2 x weld depth (s). (Fig. 15)
Fig. 15
3.5.1.4 Weld thickness on fillet welds
In general, the weld shall be made as shown in Fig. 16. If the leg thickness (z) is decisive for the execution of the weld, the let-
ter z and this thickness are indicated in the drawing as shown in Fig. 17.

for example z = 5

Fig. 16 Fig. 17

Contrary to DIN EN 22553 (ISO 2553), the indication (a) for fillet weld thicknesses
is not made in SMS Demag drawings.
Fillet welds shall be executed as follows:

Fillet welds on both sides: a = 0,3 x smallest plate thickness;

fillet welds on one side: a = 0,6 x smallest plate thickness, but max. 12 mm.

Dimension (a) depends on the thinner of the parts to be joined and shall not exceed 12 mm; above 12 mm shall be made as
partly or fully bevelled welds.
If the inner joint of a two-sided seam is not accessible and cannot be welded, the design department shall be consulted.
3.5.1.5 Quality of weld; quality level for welding, general
In table 16 the quality of weld is defined in quality levels according to DIN EN ISO 5817.
Unless otherwise specified in the drawing, quality level D is the SMS Demag standard. The restrictions given in table 14
shall be observed.
Demand joints on plates and sections shall be full penetration welds of quality level B, the quality of weld shall be proved by
ultrasonic or radiographic testing.
3.5.1.6 Deposit welding
Quality level D is SMS Demag standard with restriction to the imperfections Nos. 1.1 and 1.2, 2.3 to 2.6 and 2.12, see
table 16. The stipulations of SN 402 shall be observed.
3.5.2 Weld execution for ferritic-austenitic weld joints
Ferritic-austenitic weld joints are mixed joints between unalloyed/alloyed structural steels and austenitic chromium-nickel
steels established by welding with CrNi (Mn, Mo) filler metals. Mixed joints between steels and nickel or nickel alloys also
count among the ferritic-austenitic weld joints because of the use of nickel-based filler metals. Welding of ferritic-austenitic
joints shall be made in accordance with the specific regulations and only with filler metals approved for use on such joints.

SN 200 Part 4 : 2007-02

3.6 Notches

Notches shall be made as shown in figures 18 to 20. The dimensions of I (= R) in table 12 are big enough to allow weld-
ing through underneath the bracing. Weld seams shall be closed around
the corners even without express drawing indication: Table 12

3.7 Weld preparation on fluid-carrying components like pipelines, vessels

Weld preparation for butt welds and corner welds is made as shown in table 13.
This is an SMS Demag-specific stipulation.
For edge misalignments on joints between pipes of different wall thicknesses, the values of the required quality level shall ap-
ply as in DIN EN ISO 5817, imperfection No. 3.1, related to the smaller wall thickness. If edge misalignment exceeds the ad-
missible values, a tapered transition ≤ 10° is required, see DIN 2559, parts 2 to 4.

3.8 Weld execution on fluid-carrying components like pipe lines, vessels, etc.
The surfaces in the weld area shall be clear of scale, slag, rust, paint, oil, grease and moisture prior to the assembling of parts
to be welded.
Cracks, lack-of-fusion areas and clusters of pores in tack welds shall be removed before welding over.

Welding spatter is not allowed on the inner surfaces of pipelines; it is recommended using TIG welding for the root
pass.

The reduction of the pipe cross-section due to root reinforcement shall not exceed 20 % on pipes ≤ 25 mm outside diameter
and shall not exceed 15 % on pipes > 25 mm outside diameter, related to the cross-section of flow of the pipe (observe table
16, No. 16).
Compliance with the above shall be ensured by visual inspection and, if necessary, excess reinforcement shall be removed by
grinding etc..

All welds in the interiors of vessels and chambers shall be continuous welds without interruption.

The pipes of conduits in stainless and acid-resistant steels according to DIN EN 10297-2, DIN EN 10217-7, DIN EN 10216-5
shall be flooded with forming gas (for ex. N = 90%, H = 10%) both during tack-welding and root-pass welding (observe DVS-
Merkblatt (DVS Reference Sheet) 0937). Forming gases are used to remove the oxygen from the heated weld areas and thus
prevent oxidation. They also have a favourable effect on the forming of the root geometry and on the surface quality and pre-
vent the formation of pores.

3.8.1 Fluid-carrying steel components

Unless otherwise specified in the drawing, butt welds shall be full penetration welds.
All corner joints up to PN 25 bar shall be made at least in the form of fillet welds, over PN 25 bar, as single-bevel butt welds.

3.8.2 Fluid-carrying components in stainless and acid-resistant steels

Unless otherwise specified in the drawing, all weld joints shall be full penetration welds.
Gaps shall be avoided to reduce the corrosion probability of stainless and acid-resistant steels in areas exposed to water.
A gap width over 0,5 mm and a gap depth of less than half the gap width can generally be regarded as uncritical
(DIN EN 12502-4).

3.9 Quality of weld, quality level on fluid-carrying components like pipe lines, vessels, etc.
The quality of weld is specified in quality levels as in DIN EN ISO 25817, see table 16.
Unless otherwise specified in the drawing, quality level D is SMS Demag standard. The restrictions shown in table 15 shall
be observed.

4 Postweld heat treatment

4.1 Postweld heat treatment, general
When postweld heat treatment is made, the welding shop shall open all hermetically closed hollows prior to annealing by drill-
ing a 10 mm round hole in a suitable place on the neutral axis, even if such measure is not expressly indicated in the drawing.
After heat treatment the round holes shall be closed again. Shrinkage stresses due to one-side welding-on of parts shall be
compensated by counterheating.
Any postweld heat treatment (for example stress relief annealing) required for functional reasons shall be indicated in the
drawing by the designer.
Heat treatment required for reasons of manufacturing sequence (remachining etc.) shall be arranged for by the contracting
workshop.
Heat treatment required from a welding viewpoint shall be carried out in the responsibility of the manufacturing shop.
The use of relieving methods other than stress relief annealing (vibratory stress relief etc.) shall be previously agreed with
SMS Demag.
Heat treatment on quenched and tempered steels shall be made at a temperature which is 20 to 30 K below the tempering
temperature.
The contracting workshop shall obtain information on the tempering temperature used for the material.
All heat treatments must be proved by annealing diagrams and inspection certificate 3.1 as in DIN EN 10204.
Page 14
SN 200 Part 4 : 2007-02

General remarks on stress relief annealing for material groups S 235 and S 355
The annealing temperature shall be between 550 °C and 600 °C, for S355 max. 580 °C.
The heating rate shall not exceed 50 °C per hour.
The holding time shall be at least 1 minute for each millimeter of material thickness (120 minutes for 120 mm thickness).
The cooling rate shall not exceed 50 °C per hour.

4.2 Postweld heat treatment of stainless steel

4.2.1 Non-stabilised austenitic steels

for ex.: 1.4301 X5CrNi 18 - 10

1.4401 X5CrNiMo 17 – 12 - 2
1.4436 X3CrNiMo 17 – 13 - 3
shall never be heat treated after welding.

4.2.2 Stabilised austenitic steels

for ex.: 1.4541 X6CrNiTi 18 - 10

1.4550 X6CrNiNb 18 - 10
1.4571 X6CrNiMoTi 17 – 12 - 2
1.4580 X6CrNiMoNb 17 – 12 - 2

shall remain without postweld heat treatment whenever possible. If heat treatment cannot be avoided, it shall take place only
after previous agreement with our specialist department (for example 750 °C / holding time 1 hour / quick cooling down).

4.2.3 Low carbon steels

for ex.: 1.4306 X2CrNi 19 - 11

1.4404 X2CrNiMo 17–12-2
1.4435 X2CrNiMo 18–14-3

shall remain without postweld heat treatment whenever possible. If heat treatment cannot be avoided, it shall take place only
after previous agreement with our specialist department (for example 750 °C / holding time 1 hour / quick cooling down).

4.2.4 Postweld heat treatment of ferritic-austenitic joints

shall be made only in exceptional cases.

If a component which requires stress relief annealing is to be provided with non-detachable stainless-steel parts,
these parts shall be welded on or in only after annealing.

5 Filler metal
The alloy-element contents of the filler metal shall be generally the same as, or higher than, those of the parent material and
shall be approved through suitability testing. Detailed information on the properties of suitable filler metals can be found in:

DIN EN 440 Wire electrodes and deposits for gas-shielded arc welding of non-alloy and fine-grain steels

DIN EN ISO 2560 Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of non-alloy and fine grain steels

DIN EN 1600 Covered electrodes for manual metal arc welding of stainless and heat-resisting steels

SN 200 Part 4: 2007-02

6 Inspection
Type and extent of inspection of welded parts are specified by this Part 4 of SN 200 or by drawing indications. The inspections
shall be made by the welding shop.
If intermediate inspection is specified, the contracting welding shop shall make a report to the SMS Demag department of
quality inspection for the purpose of such inspection.

Dimensions having closer tolerances than the general tolerances stated in section 2 require documentation of the inspection
indicating the desired and the actual dimensions.
Pressure or leak tests shall be documented stating the kind of test, test pressure, testing time and pressure fluid.

When there is no suitable method of non-destructive testing to prove the quality of the weld and the flow cross-section, our
department of quality inspection (acceptance inspector) reserves the right to sever the pipelines at suitable points for inspec-
tion of those welds which are not visible from outside.

Visual inspections shall be made as specified in DIN EN 970.

Ultrasonic testing shall be made as in DIN EN 1712, 1713 and 1714.
Radiographic examinations shall be made as in DIN EN 12517 and 1435.
Magnetic-particle inspections shall be made as in DIN EN 1290 and 1291.
Liquid penetrant inspections shall be made as specified in DIN EN 1289.
All inspections shall be certified in an inspection document 3.1 as in DIN EN 10204.

6.1 Inspection of load-bearing welds with partial or full material penetration

These instructions apply to load-bearing welds for which partial material penetration is specified in the drawing. The inspection
serves in particular the purpose of proving the admissible imperfections as in DIN EN ISO 5817.
5 % of all load-bearing welds with partial material penetration shall be inspected. If no reasons for complaints are found, the
scope of inspection may be reduced upon previous agreement with our department of quality inspection.

The welds shall be inspected at the front side at a depth corresponding to weld depth + 5 mm (s + 5 mm) using the magnetic-
particle method.

Inspection is by partial grinding of the seam prior to closing at the front side, if necessary, closed welds shall be opened for in-
spection at the front side.

The instructions given are applicable by analogy to full-penetration welds if non-destructive testing is impossible or possible
only to a limited extent because of the degree of accessibility.

Lifting devices welded to the workpiece shall be checked for cracks at the weld and in the heat-affected zone. Extent of in-
spection 100%, evaluation according to quality level C.

1)
When full material penetration is required, this shall be indicated in the drawing at the respective weld seam. (See item 3.2)
2)
The evaluation criteria for visual inspection and crack detection are applicable according to DIN EN ISO 5817. Testing
methods shall be as specified in the respective DIN and AD reference sheets (DIN- and AD-Merkblätter). In case of doubt,
testability shall be clarified with our department of quality inspection. The percentage indication of the extent of testing refers
to the length of each individual weld.
3)
Pressure or leakage testing is compulsory when:
- components consist of several separate chambers or hollows. In this case testing is made on every individual chamber or
hollow.
- the weld seams have been treated by machining. Upon previous consultation with our department of quality inspection,
crack detection can be used instead of leakage testing.
For all other welds on components, pressure or leakage testing is not required provided the welds have been properly exe-
cuted in the demanded quality.
4)
On lifting devices welded to the workpiece, 100% crack detection shall be made on the weld and in the heat-affected zone.
5)
Radiographing can be replaced by equivalent methods of testing of the internal condition. These tests are required only if
the contracting workshop has not proved and documented the qualification of its personnel by suitable statistical methods
and procedures. Approval by SMS Demag shall be obtained before beginning of manufacture.
6)
In case of special requirements irrespective of the pressure stage.

Explanations on Table 16:

Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this international standard, the following terms and definitions apply:

Quality level

Description of the quality of a weld on the basis of type and size of selected imperfections.

Fitness-for-purpose

Ability of a product, process or service to serve a defined purpose under specific conditions.

Short imperfection

In welds of 100 mm length or more, imperfections are considered to be short imperfections when their total length is not
greater than 25 mm in any 100 mm weld length in which the most imperfections occur.

In welds of less than 100 mm length, imperfections are considered to be short imperfections when the length of the imperfec-
tion does not exceed 25% of the weld length.

Systematic imperfections

Imperfections that are distributed at regular distances in the weld over the weld lengths to be examined with the sizes of the
single imperfections being within the limits of acceptance.

Projected area

Area in which the imperfections distributed throughout the volume of the weld under consideration are imaged two-
dimensionally.

Note

In contrast to the cross-section area the occurrence of imperfections in radiographic exposures depends on the thickness of
the weld (see Fig. 22),

Symbols

The following symbols are used in Table 16:

a nominal throat thickness of the fillet weld (see also ISO 2553)
A pore surrounding area
b width of weld reinforcement
d diameter of pore
dA diameter of pore surrounding area
h height or width of imperfection
l length of imperfection in longitudinal direction of the weld
lp length of the projected or cross-section area
s nominal butt weld thickness (see also ISO 2553)
t pipe-wall or plate thickness (nominal size)
wp width of the weld or width or height in case of fracture area
z leg length of a fillet weld (see also ISO 2553)
α angle of weld toe
β angle of angular misalignment

Assessment of imperfections

Limits for imperfections are given in Table 16.

If microscopic examination is used for the detection of imperfections, only those imperfections shall be considered which can
be detected using a magnification equal to or less than tenfold. Excluded herefrom are micro lacks of fusion (see Table 16,
1.5) and microcracks (see Table 16, 2.2).

Systematic imperfections are only permitted in quality level D provided that other requirements of Table 16 are fulfilled.

A welded joint shall normally be assessed separately for each individual type of imperfection (see Table 16, 1.1 to 3.2).

Different types of imperfections occurring at any cross section of the joint may need special consideration (see multiple imper-
fections in Table 16, 4.1).

The limits for multiple imperfections (see Table 16) are only applicable in cases where the requirements for a single imperfec-
tion are not exceeded.

Any two adjacent imperfections separated by a distance smaller than the major dimension of the smaller imperfection shall be
considered as a single imperfection.

1 Surface condition
1.1 General
For the indication of the surface condition in drawings, DIN EN ISO 1302 (see item 1.4) is applicable with restriction. The
preferred measured variable indicated in the drawing is the center line average roughness Ra, but only the roughness value
itself (see tables 1 and 2).
All other measured roughness variables are indicated in the drawing.

2 General tolerances
The general tolerances specified in DIN ISO 2768, Parts 1 and 2, are based on international stipulations. It does not
fully cover the national regulations in force so far; for this reason, all differing data have been taken from DIN 7168
and are shown against shaded background.

2.1 Lengths, angles, radii of curvature and chamfer heights

2.1.1 Field of application
General tolerances as in DIN ISO 2768-1 and DIN 7168 for lengths, angles, radii of curvature and chamfer heights shall be
applied to machined parts. They apply to dimensions without tolerance indication between two machined surfaces of a part
made of any metallic material, provided that no material-specific general tolerances are defined in other specifications or
standards.
For dimensions between an unmachined surface and a machined surface of a part for which no individual tolerance
is indicated, half the general tolerances specified in the corresponding standard for cast, torch-cut and forged parts
shall be applied.
Dimensions shown in brackets are not required for the geometrical definition (manufacture) of the part.
General tolerances apply to the following:
- linear dimensions such as outside, inside, stepped dimensions, diameters, distances (see table 6),
- radii of curvature and chamfer heights (bevels) (see table 7);
- angles, whether indicated or not normally indicated, such as angles of equal-sided polygons (see table 8);
- linear and angle dimensions resulting from the machining of joined parts.
General tolerances do not apply to the following:
- auxiliary dimensions shown in brackets as in DIN 406-11;
- theoretical dimensions shown in rectangles according to DIN ISO 1101;
- hole-center distances, hole-circle diameters (see table 13);
- non-indicated right angles between lines which form axes of coordinates;
- linear and angle dimensions resulting from joining/assembling.

The maximum permissible deviation in mm is calculated by multiplying the tangent value by the length of the shorter leg. Any
smaller angular tolerance required shall be indicated in the drawing.

2.2 Form and location tolerances

2.2.1 Field of application
General tolerances of form and location as in DIN ISO 2768-2 are applicable to machined parts. They are also applied to
dimensions toleranced individually or in accordance with the ISO tolerance system provided that they are not superseded by a
drawing indication according to DIN EN ISO 1101.

also applies if one of the symmetrical form elements H 0,5
possesses rotational symmetry and the other does not
(for example universal joint-shaft heads and sockets).
2.2.4.5 Coaxiality
General tolerances for coaxiality have not been specified. In
the extreme case they are allowed to be as high as the
runout tolerance given in Table 12.

The tolerances shown in Table 13 are to be understood as position tolerances according to DIN EN ISO 1101 and apply to
non-toleranced hole-center distances and hole-circle diameters.
The indication of the position tolerances prohibits the summation of the tolerances. This means that the distances between the
holes are theoretically exact coordinate dimensions without deviations the intersections of which define tolerance cylinders
corresponding to the tolerances shown in Table 13.

3.4.2 Thread runout/thread undercut
The normal case according to DIN 76- 1 and 2 is applicable to all thread runouts and undercuts.
3.5 Roller burnishing and deep-rolling
The difference between the two processes consists mainly in their purposes.
The purpose of roller burnishing is the producing of the prescribed surface roughness.
Deep-rolling is a proven process for surface hardening by mechanical treatment. It makes use of the combination of three
physical effects taking place at the same time.
• Residual compressive stress
• Strength increase by shaping
• Smoothing through removal of roughness
Premachining: - preferably by turning, boring, inside turning or reaming with angular reamer,
- less suitable procedures are: grinding, honing, reaming with multiple-edged reamers, and milling.
Deep-rolling requires permanent control of the working parameters during the process. (rolling force, feed rate, speed and
geometry).

Cutoff wavelength: wave filters as in DIN EN ISO 11562 are named according to their cutoff wavelengths. They are profile
filters which, depending on the filter characteristics, have the effect that the long-wave portions of the actual profile are
incorporated in the roughness profile/measuring result only in part or not at all.

4.2 Inspection of dimensions, requirements on measuring tools/instruments

Every manufacturer shall make available sufficient measuring tools/instruments for verification of the features produced.
Measuring and inspection equipment shall be selected and used as appropriate for the respective measuring requirements;
the measuring inaccuracies of the equipment used shall be known.
When necessary, proof shall be furnished of fulfilment of the requirements concerning the control of measuring and test
equipment as in ISO 9001, item 7.6: "Control of monitoring and measuring devices" and in DIN ISO 10012.
Tolerances of form and location shall be examined on calibrated 3-coordinate measuring machines. If the manufacturer
possesses neither a three-coordinate measuring machine nor any other measuring and testing equipment, SMS Demag
reserve the right to demand inspection of the workpiece by scanning on a machine tool in unclamped condition. This
inspection shall be performed on a machine whose accuracy is known and which was not involved in the production of the
workpiece. The accuracy of the machine shall be proved when required. Machine errors shall be eliminated; if this is not
possible, they shall be taken into account. Deviations from these requirements require previous approval by the SMS Demag
department of quality inspection.

5 Tolerancing of form and location (abridged version)

5.1 General
DIN ISO 1101 shall be applied in case of deviations from the permitted form and location tolerances as specified in Tables 9
to 12.
Contrary to the stipulations of DIN ISO 8015, the “principle of independency” does not apply and the principle of “envelope
requirements” continues to apply at SMS Demag.

All dimensions are subject to the envelope requirements as specified in DIN 7167.

This means that all tolerances of form and parallelism shall always be within the specified general or ISO tolerances.

Tolerances of form and location can be stated in addition to dimensional tolerances to ensure function and replaceability.
Form tolerances limit the extent to which an individual element is allowed to deviate from its geometrically ideal shape.

Location tolerances limit the extent of deviation of the relative locations of two or more elements one of which is, for
functional reasons or for the purpose of clear definition, usually used as reference element for the tolerance indications. When
necessary, it is allowed to specify more than one reference element. The reference element shall be of sufficient accuracy (if
necessary, a form tolerance shall be specified).

5.2 Drawing indication

reference letter theoretically exact

indication arrow reference letter
(if necessary) dimension (in a box) ,
1)

toleranced reference triangle valid only in conjunction

element tolerance value (t) reference element with location tolerance
symbol of tolerance type

reference triangles with reference letter R shown in a circle are reference surfaces which mark the point of
departure for dimensioning and shall be taken into account for the defining of the manufacturing sequence.

SMS Demag stipulation

The tolerance refers to the overall dimension of the element concerned. When the tolerance applies
only to part lengths in any position, a linear dimension must be indicated in addition to the tolerance
value and separated from it by a stroke; for example:

If the tolerance indication is to apply only to a prescribed area, this area shall be dimensioned and
marked with a wide dash-dot line; for example:

1)
Theoretically exact dimensions are the bases for the locations of the form and location tolerance zones. The general
tolerances do not apply to these dimensions.
 Page 11
SN 200 Part 5 : 2007-02

When the indication refers to the axis of the workpiece, the indication arrow or reference triangle is placed against the arrow of
the dimension line. If the indication arrow is placed on the centerline, the tolerance zone applies to all axes represented by this
centerline. An indication referring to the surface line is made by placing the indication arrow or reference triangle at a distance
of at least 4 mm to one side of the dimension line.

Reference to the axis Reference to all Reference to surface line

axes represented by centerline

The tolerance zone is cylindrical when the symbol Ø precedes the tolerance value. When this symbol is not indicated, the
tolerance zone is delimited by two lines or surfaces whose distance in the direction of the indication arrow is equal to the
tolerance value.

When a common tolerance zone is intended to apply to several individual elements, this requirement is shown by adding the
letters CZ (for common zone).

These stipulations can be applied by analogy to other types of tolerances.

In the example shown all three surfaces are required to be parallel to the reference surface. As a result, they are also
symmetrical to each other within the tolerance of 0,1 mm.

6 Tolerances and limit deviations for linear dimensions from 1 to 10000 mm

6.1 Field of application and purpose
This standard is used to determine the tolerances for all linear dimensions such as lengths, widths, heights, depths, diameters
etc. It defines, for linear dimensions over 1 up to 10,000 mm, tolerances in 12 different tolerance classes, which shall be
selected and agreed upon as required for the respective application.
Note 1: For nominal dimensions up to 3150 mm, the tolerances are identical to ISO standard tolerances of DIN ISO 286.
Fundamental tolerances for nominal dimensions over 3150 mm are, however, not stated in DIN ISO 286.
Note 2: For ISO standard tolerances for nominal dimensions over 3150 mm, see DIN 7172.
Note 3: It is pointed out that for dimensions over 500 mm special care is required in manufacture to ensure fulfilment of
tolerances of the tolerance classes finer than 8, in particular with respect to temperature variations and temperature gradients
in the workpiece.

6.2 General
The standard tolerances stated in Table 19 are assigned to the respective tolerance series and classes. All values are based
on the reference temperature of 20 °C as in DIN EN ISO 1.

The pretensioning forces and tightening torques for screw materials of other strength categories can be calculated with the
following factors:
Screw material strength: 5.6 = 0,47; 10.9 = 1,41; 12.9 = 1,69; A 2-70 = 0,71; A 2-80 = 0,94.

3.2 Assembling of pipe lines

3.2.1 Locations of pipe lines and line components
The locations of pipe lines, line components and pipe supports are shown in drawings. Deviations are allowed only upon
agreement with the design department.
For pipework which is not fully dimensioned and which has to be fitted during assembling, the manufacturing shop shall
take into account the following:
- functional laying of pipework according to the general arrangement drawing, the pipework or P&l diagram;
- functional installation of fittings with due regard to accessibility;
- appropriate pipework arrangement and routing for easy assembling and disassembling.
- laying of the pipe lines without stresses (DIN EN 13480-4).
- The space required for the use of hydraulic screw pretensioning units (anchor bolts, gear bearing screws etc.) shall be taken into
account..

3.2.2 General tolerances for pipe lines

For pipework which is not fully dimensioned and freely laid, the priority is on the guaranteeing of its function. All untoleranced
dimensions are subject to accuracy classes C and F according to Tables 3 to 5 in DIN EN ISO 13920.
For fully dimensioned pipework (pipe detail drawings, isometric drawings etc.), accuracy classes B and F according to Tables
3 to 5 in DIN EN ISO 13920 apply to all untoleranced dimensions.

3.2.3 Assembling of pipe couplings and flanges

In the assembling of pipe couplings, cleanliness and lubrication of the thread shall be ensured and the assembling instructions
given by the suppliers shall be followed.
In the case of pipe couplings in stainless steel the threads and contact surfaces of the union nuts on the welding cones shall be
provided with sufficient quantities of lubricant (for example with "Fett-Micro-Gleit GP 350" of Micro Gleit Company or any other
lubricant approved by SMS Demag) to avoid seizing of the couplings.

When flanges made of two different materials are used, the parts remaining on the pipe (flanges and welding collar) shall always
be made of equivalent pipe material for reasons of pickling. For all piping components which can be removed before pickling (like
split flanges etc.), the use of surface-treated (galvanized, chromalised or nickel-plated) steel is allowed.

3.2.4 Sealing of pipe couplings and threaded fittings

When use is made of male stud couplings with front-side elastic seal, no additional sealing agents shall be applied.
In exceptional cases couplings and threaded fittings without front-side elastic seals shall be sealed in the low-pressure
range <16 bar with Omnifit 50H (by Messrs. Henkel), in the high-pressure range >16 bar with AVX No. 586 (by Loctite Company)
or equivalent sealing compounds.
Couplings in grease pipe lines shall not be provided with additional sealing compound.
As couplings sealed with AVX can be disconnected only by the introduction of heat (flame), this sealing compound shall not be
used for pipe lines which carry inflammable fluids.

3.2.5 Arrangement of fastening elements

Unless otherwise specified in drawings, pipework shall be installed in such a way Table 6
that the distance between two fastenings does not exceed the values in Table 6. Pipe outside
Fastenings shall be used immediately near detachable connections and bends. Max. distance in m

3.2.6 Cleanness of pipe lines and fluid-carrying components
Prior to final assembling, pipework and fluid-carrying components shall be cleaned so that all impurities (dirt, chips, welding
spatter, paint, etc.) on the inside surface are removed. Then the pipe lines and fluid-carrying components shall be closed so that
ingress of dirt etc. is safely avoided.

3.2.7 Positions of screw holes

Screw holes in pipe lines and fittings shall be arranged in such a way that they are symmetrical to
the two main axes and that no holes are located on the axes themselves (refer to DIN 2501-1).
Every flange is provided with a number of bolt holes that can be divided by four.
 Page 5
SN 200 Part 6: 2007-02

3.2.8 Connection holes

To avoid contamination of the control elements, all connection holes (fittings, measuring instruments, cylinder ports, valve block
connections etc.) shall be kept appropriately closed (with disks, caps, adhesive tape etc.) until final assembling. Connecting holes
opened for reasons of installation shall be closed again immediately after installation.

4 Inspection
The scope of inspection of assembled units shall be agreed upon with the SMS Demag department of quality inspection. (refer to
Part 10, Section 2)
As far as applicable and feasible, the minimum requirement is the check of
- tolerances of form and location of assembled units,
- supporting and seating surfaces, connecting and takeover points,
- clearances and contact patterns to be adjusted,
- surface contact percentages (with 0,05 mm feeler gauge),
- movements and travelling distances (with auxiliary drives if necessary),
- cylinder strokes (with suitable hydraulic packages),
- corrosion protection and coat of paint.
The manufacturer shall draw up reports of all checks/inspections that have been made.

SN 200 Part 7: 2007-02

1 Principles

1.1 Basic instructions

• All surfaces in steel (except stainless steel) of machine or structural steel elements shall be provided with a coat of
paint. This does not apply to contact surfaces and functional surfaces, they shall be preserved.
• All colours shall be the glossy type.
• All parts which have to remain uncoated shall be preserved with Tectyl 502-C or equivalent products after shot-
blasting/pickling; drawing indication is required.
Exceptions:
• Anchor plates as in SN 227 for casting in concrete shall be only blasted to remove rolling skin and annealing scale from
the surface. These parts shall be neither coated nor preserved to achieve better adhesion to the foundation. Indoor
storage of the parts is required to avoid new formation of rust.
• All parts in stainless and acid-resistant steels shall be neither coated nor preserved.

1.2 Indication in drawings and other manufacturing documents

Apart from the basic exceptions described under item 1.1, indications in drawings and other manufacturing documents shall
be made when deviations from the standard specifications given in Tables 1 to 3, items 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3, are required for
functional reasons.
Only the top coat is indicated, for example
- oil-resistant coat: SN 200 Part 7 - 3.3.4.1
- heat-resistant coat: SN 200 Part 7 - 3.3.2
- no coating, only preservation: SN 200 Part 7 - 4.

2 Surface condition
2.1 Surface preparation
All surfaces to be provided with a coat or with preserving compound shall be cleared of annealing colours, rust, slag, rolling
skin, mill scale, dirt, dust, oil, grease, old paint, cooling lubricants etc. before the prime coat is applied.

2.2 Standard preparation grades of steel surfaces prepared by blasting

Preparation grade Sa 2 ½ is required for parts which are subject to normal corrosion attack, in case of very heavy corrosion
attack, when the functioning of the equipment (gear unit, vessel etc.) can be affected by corrosion, preparation grade Sa 3 is
required.
The following conditions shall be fulfilled according to DIN EN ISO 12944-4:
Sa 2½ = scale, rust and coats have been removed to such an extent that remainders on the steel surface are visible only
as spots of slight shading due to discolouring of pores.
Sa 3 = scale, rust and coats have been completely removed (when viewed without magnification).

2.3 Standard preparation grade of steel surfaces prepared by manual derusting

Preparation grade St 3 is required for machine components which cannot be blasted due to their sizes or weights, for example
mill housings.
The following conditions shall be fulfilled according to DIN EN ISO 12944-4:
St 3 = loose coats or scale have been removed; rust has been removed to such an extent that, after subsequent cleaning,
the steel surface shows a clear lustre given by the metal itself.

2.4 Standard preparation grade of steel surfaces prepared by pickling

Instead of blasting, pickling can be used for derusting and preparing the surfaces of small parts when a pickling tank is
available, for example in a hydrochloric acid bath, with subsequent passivation. In this case, preparation grade Be is required.
Requirement according to DIN EN ISO 12944-4:
Be = coat residues, scale and rust shall have been completely removed,
preparation grade Be corresponds to preparation grade Sa 3.

2.5 Derusting by blasting

To achieve preparation grade Sa 2½ or Sa 3, the following metallic chilled-cast blast-cleaning abrasive with sharp-edged
grain is used:
blast-cleaning abrasive ISO 11124 M/CI/G70
When this type of blast-cleaning abrasive is used taking into account the impact energy and the blasting angle, the actual
average roughness shall not be markedly higher than the specified average roughness of Ra = 12,5 µm.
 Page 3
SN 200 Part 7: 2007-02

3 Coating
3.1 Prime coat
Basic specifications
Upon preparation of the steel surface, the prime coat shall be applied within 6 hours to prevent new formation of rust.

When surface preparation is made by pickling in phosphoric acid bath, the prime coat shall be applied not earlier than after
48 hours to avoid chemical change of the prime coat.

This prime coat prevents penetration of cooling lubricants during machining.

Depending on the degree of damage to the prime coat by finish-machining or welding, the prime coat is either repaired or
newly applied.

The weld seam area shall be cleaned with particular care to remove the alkaline or acid filler metal constituents and to avoid
their destructive effects.

Areas which are not accessible after assembling shall be provided with prime and top coats prior to the final assembling.

Prime coats and their properties

The following prime coats shall be applied:

5 Coating and preservation of pipe lines, pipes and vessels

Pipe lines
Pipe lines are prefabricated lines laid on machinery and consisting of pipes and pipe line components. This includes pipe lines
delivered to the site in prefabricated condition. They are used to convey fluid (cooling water, air, oil, etc.) from the point of
provision (tank etc.) to the point of consumption (cylinder etc.).
Pipes
Pipes means any pipe which has not undergone machining and is delivered to the site by the meter in the as-produced
condition for further treatment and use for interconnecting conduits.
Vessels
Vessels means any vessel which holds fluid ready for use and in which, due to operation, a pressure exists or may be
generated which is
≤ 0,1 bar or ≥ -0,2 bar (pressureless vessel), or
> 0,1 bar or < -0,2 bar (pressure vessel).

tion values.
The following table states acceleration factors for the different types of transport.
g values associated with the acceleration rates (max. rates occurring in regular operation)

Acceleration forces
Horizontal forces
Type of transport Forward/backward Transverse Vertical forces

Railway 4,0 g 0,5 g 0,3 g

Road 1,0 g 0,5 g 1,0 g
Sea 0,4 g 0,8 g 1,0 g
Air 1,5 g 1,5 g 3g

(according to HPE Guidelines 2003/06) (HPE: The Registered Federal Association for Wooden Packages, Pallets and Export Packaging)

When means of transport are combined, the highest value of each kind of acceleration force out of the types of transport shall be
taken into account.

4.2 Fixing of goods

- The merchandise shall be bolted to the case bottom structure through load-distributing transverse wooden members. The num-
ber of bolts and their dimensioning shall be calculated according to Table 11. The minimum bolt spacing and the minimum bolt
distance from the loaded edge in grain direction shall be 7 d, but at least 10 cm.
- The securing in place of movable parts of the merchandise shall be in the same quality as the fixing of the merchandise on the
case bottom structure.
- If screw-fastening/bolting of the merchandise to the case bottom structure is impossible or possible only to a limited extent, use
of appropriate intermediate layers, padding elements, supports or blocking elements shall be made to avoid slipping of the mer-
chandise in the case.

The following measures are appropriate:

- jamming of the goods using wooden thrust blocks and threaded rods (min. bolt diameter see table 10),
- lashing of the goods using prestretched wire and turnbuckle (proof of sufficient wire cross-section is required),
- bracing with wooden members (direct wood-to-metal contact is not permitted).
Page 6
SN 200 Part 9: 2007-02

5 Packing
Within the scope of the inspection of incoming and outgoing goods, the preservative applied to the parts by the supplier shall be
checked by the packer for absence of damage on the outer surfaces and, if necessary, shall be properly repaired using an agent
according to SN 200, Part 7.
Depending on the durations of transport and storage, protection against corrosion is made according to the desiccant method by
sealing of the goods in plastic film.
The following materials are used for the barrier layer:
- Polyethylene foil according to BWB TL 8135-0019 or equivalent foil,
- Aluminium compound foil according to BWB TL 8135-0003 or equivalent foil.

Preservation using the VCI method with appropriate carrier material (paper, film, foam pack, etc.) is an alternative possibility, but
requires previous consultation with SMS Demag with regard to compatibility.
Barrier sheathings shall be designed to allow the proper opening and reclosing of the sheathings for two times.
The necessary desiccant quantity is calculated according to DIN 55474 for a maximum permissible ultimate humidity of 40%. The
water vapour permeability is established using the procedures specified in DIN EN ISO 15106-3; the foils shall be checked both in
as-delivered and in aged condition.
The testing climates to be used shall be chosen as appropriate for the country of destination. If no climate data are available,
climate B according to DIN 53122-1 shall be used. If no particular proof of water vapour permeability has been furnished, the
max. permissible water vapour permeability factor (mean value of as-delivered and aged condition) stated in the relevant technical
delivery condition shall be used.
The test results shall be proven in an inspection certificate 3.1 or 3.2 according to DIN EN 10204. The desiccant bags of the low-
dust type shall be attached in the upper section of the packing and properly secured against falling. The desiccant bags shall be
fastened in such a way that they permanently withstand loads resulting from transport, handling, and weight increase due to the
absorption of moisture. Direct contact between merchandise and desiccant is not allowed.
Projecting parts and sharp edges shall be properly padded to prevent wearing through or piercing of the foil. The air inside the
barrier layer shall be exhausted.
Openings in the barrier sheathing such as areas pierced by fastening elements shall be sealed vapour-tight with seals and sealing
compound applied on both sides of the barrier film (see Fig. 4).

7 Inspection
SMS Demag shall be informed by the contractor in due time (at least two days) before the beginning of packaging and has the
right of attendance during packaging. SMS Demag reserve the right to inspect the packing.

The packer shall complete an inspection report (SMS Demag form No. 1325) for every package. In addition, the calculation
documents and a list of the materials used stating quantities, cross sections etc. shall also be drawn up for each package. These
documents shall be submitted to SMS Demag for countersigning (company-specific records giving identical information will be
accepted by SMS Demag).

If, on the basis of the records or during inspection of the packages, there is reasonable doubt concerning proper preservation,
marking or packing, the authorized representative of SMS Demag will decide as to whether opening of the packages and possibly
the barrier sheathings is required.

If the opened packages are found to be unacceptable, the representative of SMS Demag will decide whether additional opening of
twice the number of packages opened for previous inspection shall take place.
Such additional inspection will be repeated till all packages of an additional inspection have been found fully acceptable.
The contractor shall be liable to SMS Demag for correct packaging in compliance with these minimum requirements and for per-
fect quality of the packing material. Any deviation from these conditions requires the previous written approval by SMS Demag.
The contractor shall be liable to SMS Demag for any damage resulting from improper or faulty packing.

The inspection of the package does not relieve the packaging company from its warranty obligations and liability.

The inspection instructions for high-quality components are stated in component-specific SN standards; the applicable
standards are indicated in the drawing of the respective component. In exceptional cases additional inspection schedules for
component parts are drawn up by the Quality Inspection Department of SMS Demag and made available to the manufacturer
together with the drawings and ordering documents.

SN 200 Part 10: 2007-02

4 Inspection instructions for assembled units (assemblies and equipment units)

Given the wide range of products of SMS Demag, it is not possible to define standard inspection instructions for assembled
units within the scope of this SN 200.

Manufacturers of assembled units are therefore bound to contact our Department of Quality Inspection to agree on the
relevant inspection procedures. For the most part, the scopes of assembly and inspection are shown in specific schedules,
which will be made available to the manufacturer and are considered to be constituent parts of this SN.

Within the scope of these inspections, functional and movement tests are the minimum requirements for the inspection of
oscillating and rotating parts.

5 Particular inspection instructions

Equipment such as hoists, pressure vessels etc. shall be acceptance-tested/inspected according to the statutory regulations
or other regulations having legal force (for example Accident Prevention Instructions, AD codes of practice).

6 Inspections made by the end buyer (acceptance by customer)

Inspections/testing which has been contractually agreed between SMS Demag and the customer will be notified to the
manufacturer in the respective documents (internally: shop order, externally: ordering document).

7 Inspection results
All inspections made on the basis of the inspection instructions given in the individual parts of this SN shall be documented
showing the desired and the actual values. Appropriate forms and certificates for the reporting/documenting of inspection
results are available at SMS Demag and will be made available when required. Company-specific reports showing the same
contents and drawn up by the supplier within the scope of his own quality assurance system will be accepted by SMS Demag
provided that they can be assigned to the SMS Demag project number and to the purchase order and drawing numbers.

If the drawing stipulates identification marking of every single component part (for example by stamped figures or
engraving), the actual values of every single component part shall be stated (one report for every part).

If parts are manufactured in quantities greater than 1 and if identification marking is not made for these parts, it is sufficient
to report the actual values of the respective upper and lower limits (i.e. one report per lot stating values ranging from ... to ...).

Inspections of assembled units shall also be reported with indication of the desired and actual values.

The original reports shall be handed over complete, in size A4, to the SMS Demag quality inspection representative during his
visit to the manufacturer's works. If SMS Demag does not make an inspection at the manufacturer's works, the original reports
shall be sent to the SMS Demag Department of Quality Inspection. All reports requested by SN 200 are constituent parts of
the scope of order or supply. If inspection reports are missing or not complete, payments will be withheld by SMS Demag.

8 Inspection documents
In general, inspection documents shall be drawn up on the basis of DIN EN 10204 according to the requirements made in the
drawings and ordering documents.
If no special requirements are made in drawings or ordering documents, the inspection documents stated in the individual
parts of this SN 200 are the minimum requirement for component parts.
The minimum requirement for assembled units for which no particular specifications are made in the drawings and ordering
documents is a declaration of compliance with the order drawn up on the basis of DIN EN 10204, type 2.1.
For the further requirements according to item 3, an inspection certificate 3.1 according to DIN EN 10204 shall be issued; the
test reports of the component parts and the test report of the assembled unit shall be annexed to the certificate.
If payments by SMS Demag or its customers depend on the presentation of the inspection documents, an inspection
certificate 3.2 according to DIN EN 10204 shall be drawn up by the manufacturer in mutual agreement with the SMS Demag
quality inspector instead of the inspection certificate 3.1 according to DIN EN 10204.
