FAQs of Used 10T Electric Arc Furnace:
Q: How is the 10T Electric Arc Furnace installed and what infrastructure is required?
A: Installation requires a proper foundation and EAF-compatible power infrastructure. It operates on 3-phase electricity at 380440V, so ensure your facility meets the electrical and structural requirements before setup.
Q: What are the main operational benefits of using this furnace for steel melting?
A: This furnace offers high melting efficiency, robust construction, and a quick melting cycle (4560 minutes per batch). Its industrial-grade materials and control systems provide increased safety, durability, and operational reliability for metallurgical applications.
Q: When should the refractory lining be inspected or replaced?
A: Although the refractory lining is installed, it is recommended to inspect it before commissioning and regularly during operation. The replacement frequency depends on usage intensity and the types of materials processed.
Q: Where is eccentric bottom tapping (EBT) used in this furnace, and why?
A: The EBT system is used during molten steel discharge to minimize slag in the tapped metal and enhance worker safety. This tapping method is located at the lower eccentric part of the furnace shell.
Q: What is included with the used furnace in terms of spare parts and accessories?
A: A basic set of spare parts is included in as-is condition. Additional spares or specific components should be sourced separately as needed for ongoing maintenance.
Q: How is safety ensured during furnace operation?
A: Safety is supported by a combination of PLC/manual controls, comprehensive alarm systems, and a water cooling system that mitigates overheating risks, protecting both operators and equipment.
Q: What types of steelmaking applications is this furnace suitable for?
A: It is ideally suited for industrial-scale steel production in metallurgical industries and steel plants, delivering consistent, high-quality melted steel suitable for various downstream processes.
