Copper and copper alloys - Analysis by spark optical emission spectrometry (S-OES); German version EN 15079:2015

Title (German)

Kupfer und Kupferlegierungen - Analyse durch optische Emissionsspektrometrie mit Funkenanregung (F-OES); Deutsche Fassung EN 15079:2015

Overview

This European Standard specifies a routine method for the analysis of copper and copper alloys by spark optical emission spectrometry (S-OES). The method is applicable to all elements except copper commonly present in copper and copper alloys as impurities or minor or main constituents, which can be determined by S-OES. That is, the intensity of the radiation is measured, whose wavelength is characteristic of each element, generated by a spark resulting from the application of an electrical discharge between the sample, as one electrode, and an inert counter-electrode. Concentrations of elements are determined by relating the measured intensities of test samples to calibration curves prepared from reference materials. This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 133 "Copper and copper alloys", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). The responsible German body involved in its preparation was Working Committee is NA 066-02-06 AA "Analysenverfahren für NE-Metalle" ("Methods of analysis for non-ferrous metals") at DIN Standards Committee Nonferrous Metals (FNNE).
