Introduction |
| |
Clay graphite ladle bowls are the bestmeans of taking molten metal samples and for skimming slag and dirt from
Induction Furnaces and ladles. Supplied in a range of sizes from 90cc to 4000cc capacity. Ideal for taking samples
for spectrographic analysis, test bars and thermal analysis samples. They provide a cost efficient means of
obtaining a molten metal sample, free from contamination or dirt, which is close to the temperature of the bulk
metal being sampled (important for thermal analysis). When supplied with a drain hole they are the ideal means of
removing slag and dirt from induction furnaces and casting ladles without resorting to the excessive use of slag
coagulants. |

Applications
VB 20/1, NB32/1 |
|
These are spoon shaped ladle bowls which have been specifically designed for use in the removal of slags
from all sizes of electric induction furnaces. The shape ensures complete removal of all slag from the surface of
the molten metal easily and quickly.They are supplied with a drain hole so that only dirt and slag is removed from
the furnace. |

| Care and use of clay graphite ladle bowls. |
| Assembly. |
| |
Handle can be manufactured from a 1"or 1.5" dia steel tube with a T piece welded to one end and a 10mm or
16mmnutwelded to the other. Length to suit application. |
| |
| |
1. Screw extension rod/handle onto the threaded stud.
2. Set handle intoa convenient operating position.
3. Tighten the locknut back onto the handle ensuring that the bowl and handle remain in relative positions.
4. Donot disturb the ladle bowl bolt securing nut, asthis will shorten the life of the bowl. |

| Use |
| |
| |
1. The clay graphite material must be preheated before use to ensure that any residual moisture is removed
before immersion intoany molten metal.
2. Beforeuse preheatto ensure molten metal maintains temperature for thermal analysis or sample taking.
3. After use hangfrom a convenient hook to ensure mechanical damage to the clay graphite bowl is minimised.
4. Clean any adhering metal or slag by washing in molten metal. This will prolong the life of the bowl by
reducing mechanicaldamage due to cleaning.
5. In aggressive applications occasionally coat ladle bowl with a graphite wash to extend life.
6. Shouldonly be used for the purpose for which it is designed or recommended |
