Charging and Preheating Systems:
- Preheating systems can reduce energy costs by more
than 10% per ton of molten metal, compared to direct
cold charging devices.
- One-man control station monitors complete system from charge makeup to furnace-ready charge for maximum ease of operation.
- Rugged flow-feed conveyor disperses charge in even layers to assure rapid, thorough preheating.
- Air manifold maintains precise fuel/air mixture for greater fuel economy.
- Preheater raises charge to uniform temperatures in six minutes, providing the energy necessary to increase furnace output while reducing energy costs by more than 10%.
- Preheater removes a high percentage of dirt, grease and other impurities from scrap, significantly improving metal quality.
- High velocity reducing flame provides maximum temperature with minimum oxidation of charge material.
- High velocity burners maintain automatic ignition temperature at all settings, eliminating flame-outs and the need for electronic flame safety.
- Shaker-type preheater conveyor jogs charge intermittently, ensuring even heating and more efficient energy transfer. Temperature control reduces gas input as temperature differential between flame and charge material decreases, maximizing energy efficiency.
IMPORTANT:
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must be worn
by anyone in proximity to molten metal.
