Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein wasserführendes Bauteil mit einem mittels Gießen hergestellten Grundkörper. Als wasserführendes Bauteil im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung wird insbesondere ein Armaturen-, Fitting-, oder Pumpengehäuse angesehen. Wasserführende Bauteile können aber auch Rohre sein. Als wasserführendes Bauteil im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung wird grundsätzlich jedes Gussteil angesehen, welches Wasser führt und mit diesem in Kontakt kommt.The present invention relates to a water-conducting component with a basic body produced by means of casting. As a water-conducting component according to the present invention, in particular a fitting, fitting, or pump housing is considered. But water-bearing components can also be pipes. As a water-conducting component in the context of the present invention, basically every casting is considered, which leads water and comes into contact with this.
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Weiterbildung dieses wasserführenden Bauteils, welches als Gussteil aus einer Kupferlegierung hergestellt ist.The present invention relates to a development of this water-conducting component, which is made as a casting of a copper alloy.
Kupferlegierungen werden seit jeher als Rotguss-Legierungen zur Herstellung von wasserführenden Bauteilen eingesetzt. Übliche Vertreter sind Bronze-Guss-Legierungen gemäß DIN EN 1982. Beispielhaft soll hier die Rotguss-Legierung CuSn5Zn5Pb5 mit jeweils zwischen 4 bis 6 Gew.-% Zinn, Zink und Blei bei einem Gehalt von bis zu 2,0 Gew.-% Nickel und bis zu 0,1 Gew.-% Phosphor sowie als Beimengungen bis zu 0,3 Gew.-% Eisen und bis zu 0,25 Gew.-% Antimon genannt werden. Dieser Werkstoff zeichnet sich zwar durch eine gute Gießbarkeit sowie Korrosionsbeständigkeit auch gegenüber Meerwasser aus. Hinsichtlich der Abgabe von Metallionen in das Wasser muss dieser Werkstoff indes vor dem Hintergrund der künftig zu erwartenden Grenzwerte als nicht zufriedenstellend angesehen werden. Hier wird insbesondere die hohe Bleiabgabe von CuSn5Zn5Pb5 bemängelt.Copper alloys have always been used as gunmetal alloys for the production of water-bearing components. Common representatives are cast bronze alloys according to DIN EN 1982. By way of example, the gunmetal alloy CuSn5Zn5Pb5 here with between 4 to 6 wt .-% tin, zinc and lead at a level of up to 2.0 wt .-% nickel and up to 0.1% by weight of phosphorus and as admixtures up to 0.3% by weight of iron and up to 0.25% by weight of antimony. Although this material is characterized by good castability and corrosion resistance to seawater. With regard to the release of metal ions into the water, however, this material must be regarded as unsatisfactory against the background of the future expected limit values. Here, in particular, the high lead levy of CuSn5Zn5Pb5 is criticized.
Im Hinblick auf die mit Blei einhergehende Problematik bei wasserführenden Bauteilen schreibt die DIN 50 930 T6 in ihrer aktuell gültigen Fassung einen Anteil von bis zu 3,0 Gew.-% Blei vor. Nach dieser neuen Norm soll die dort spezifizierte CuSn5Zn5Pb2-b-Gusslegierung zwischen 84 und 88 Gew.-% Kupfer, nicht mehr als 0,6 Gew.-% Nickel, nicht mehr als 0,04 Gew.-% Phosphor, nicht mehr als 6,0 Gew.-% Zinn und nicht mehr als 6,0 Gew.-% Zink enthalten. Zinn und Zink sind mit jeweils mindestens 4 Gew.-% in der Legierung enthalten. Wegen der Zerspanbarkeit der mit der Legierung hergestellten Gussteile wird der Fachmann indes einen gewissen Bleianteil, der nicht wesentlich unter der genannten Obergrenze von 3,0 Gew.-% liegt, in der Legierung vorsehen.With regard to the problem associated with lead in water-bearing components, the DIN 50 930 T6 in its currently valid version prescribes a proportion of up to 3.0 wt .-% lead. According to this new standard, the specified CuSn5Zn5Pb2-b casting alloy should contain between 84 and 88% by weight of copper, not more than 0.6% by weight of nickel, not more than 0.04% by weight of phosphorus, not more than Containing 6.0% by weight of tin and not more than 6.0% by weight of zinc. Tin and zinc are each contained at least 4 wt .-% in the alloy. However, because of the machinability of castings made with the alloy, one skilled in the art will envision a certain amount of lead, not significantly below the stated upper limit of 3.0% by weight, in the alloy.

The iron content can be relatively high at 0.3% by weight. All other ingredients are below a limit that can be considered as an impurity limit. Preferably, the upper limit for the lead and the nickel content is set to 0.05 wt .-%. Particularly preferred are lead and nickel, each containing not more than 0.02 wt .-% in the alloy.
