Fume Extraction System
An electric arc furnace (EAF) is a furnace that heats material by means of an electric arc.
Industrial arc furnaces range in size from small units of approximately one-tonne capacity (used in foundries for producing cast iron products) up to about 400 tonne units used for secondary steelmaking. Industrial electric arc furnace temperatures can reach 1,800 °C (3,300 °F), while laboratory units can exceed 3,000 °C (5,400 °F).
In electric arc furnaces, the charged material (the material entered into the furnace for heating, not to be confused with an electric charge) is directly exposed to an electric arc, and the current from the furnace terminals passes through the charged material. Arc furnaces differ from induction furnaces, in which the charge is heated instead by eddy currents.
Advantages of Green FES
- High-capacity FES system for clean and green steel making
- Integrated with furnace PLC
- Lowest energy consumption: VFD-controlled motor speed varied as per furnace KW and fume quantity
- Fully automated and no wastage of power
- Integration with furnace PLC for remote access and remote diagnostics
- Detailed fume calculation and engineering/project assistance for foolproof system
- Option for direct purchase of bough out items like ID Fan, motor, bag house. and taking only the control panel, hood and detailed calculation/specs from Megatherm.
