German term

den K 4-Wert

German to English Tech/Engineering Metallurgy / Casting Testing
Der Reinheitsgrad bezüglich oxididischer Einschlüsse darf den K 4-Wert von 35 nicht überschreiten.
(Ermittlung nach DIN 50 602)

Einzelne "globulare Schlacken" dürfen die Grösse von 100 μm nicht überschreiten.

Been trawling the internet to find out what this means. Possibly has something to do with - Copper-Accelerated Acetic Acid-Salt Spray (Fog) Testing (CASS Test) (from DIN website)

Can anybody help ?

K4 rating

Inclusion morphology is of prime importance
for the isotropic behaviour of the
material. The maximum sulfur content of
Buderus ISO-B grades is 0.003 %. The
average is below 0.002 %.
The Sum-Total-Index-Number (STIN)
for sulphide and oxide inclusions, rated to
DIN 50602, does not exceed the following
limits:
K1 = max.10
K4 = 0

Oh, and Sum-Total-Index-Number is Summenkennwert (see link).
I found several references to "method K"/Verfahren K according to this DIN standard; also K1 rating or K1 limit (so K4 limit would be another option).
