Electrically Heated, for Melting and Holding
Bale-out furnace T 110/11
Bale-out furnace T 800/11
Due to their high-grade insulation and optimized connected loads the bale-out furnaces can be used both for melting and holding. They feature good melting performance together with outstanding temperature uniformity in the melt. The 1100 °C version can be used for melting aluminum, the 1200 °C version for brass as well. The 1300 °C version can also be used for melting bronze alloys. The bale-out furnaces are fitted with multi-layer insulation.
Four side heating for excellent temperature uniformity
Manual ladling from a bale-out furnace T 80/10
- T../11 with Tmax of 1100 °C for aluminum or zinc, with a maximum melt bath temperature, depending on the condition of the crucible, of 950 °C
- T ../12 with Tmax of 1200 °C also suitable for brass, with a maximum melt bath temperature, depending on the condition of the crucible, of 1050 °C
- T ../13 with Tmax of 1300 °C, also suitable for bronze alloys, with a maximum melt bath temperature, depending on the condition of the crucible, of 1150 °C
- Four-side heating using electric heating elements, freely radiating on support tubes
- Simple replacement of individual heating elements. In case of crucible breakage, only the defective heating elements on each level need to be replaced
- Heating of furnaces up to 60 kW power rating controlled using long-lasting, noiseless solid-state-relays
- Heating of furnaces beyond 60 kW with contactors
- High melting performance with temperature uniformity in the melt
- Insulation constructed in multiple layers with lightweight refractory bricks on the hot face
- Emergency outlet for safe draining of the melt in case of crucible breakage
- Only fiber materials are used which are not classified as carcinogenic according to TRGS 905, class 1 or 2
- No exhaust gas discharge needed
- Integrated safety system which continues to operate the furnace at reduced power in case of malfunction in the bath thermocouple, in order to prevent the freezing of the melt
- Over-temperature limiter in furnace chamber for protection against overheating. The limiter switches the heating off when the set limit temperature is reached, and only switches it back on after the temperature has fallen again
- Furnace chamber control with temperature measurement behind the crucible, recommended for melting
- Crucible not included in the standard version
- Defined application within the constraints of the operating instructions
Additional equipment
- Crucible of clay-graphite or SiC
- Work platform
- Collecting pan under the emergency outlet
- Crucible breakage monitor with visual and audible signal (not for 1300 °C models
- SMS-alarm message to one or more mobile phones, e.g. in case of crucible breakage
