Metal Smelting

High-temperature processes and electrically demanding environments with no tolerance for guesswork.

What we do here

Smelting operations combine extreme process conditions with difficult electrical environments. Control systems must be specified and installed with that in mind — from instrument selection through to cable routing and earthing.

Our work covers furnace auxiliaries, cooling systems, material transport and the process monitoring that keeps operators ahead of the furnace.

.CAPABILITIES

What we cover

01
Furnace auxiliaries
Control of charging, tapping support systems, gas handling and auxiliary equipment.
02
Cooling systems
Water cooling circuits with redundancy, flow and temperature protection.
03
Material transport
Charge and product handling, conveying and weighing integration.
04
Process monitoring
Temperature, flow and condition monitoring with alarm strategies suited to critical equipment.
05
Electrical robustness
Installation design that survives the interference and thermal loads of a smelter.
.IMPACT

How we impact the industry

Protection of critical assets
Cooling and interlock design guards the furnace against the failures that cause real damage.
Operators ahead of the process
Monitoring and alarm design give time to act before a condition becomes an incident.
Reliable in a hostile environment
Equipment and installation specified for heat, dust and electrical noise.
