The invention relates to a distributor device for continuous casting comprising a fire-resistant distribution vessel (2) for receiving and forwarding metal melts, in particular steel melts, and a flushing device (3) for flushing the distributor vessel (2) by way of a gaseous medium before and during the filling thereof with steel melt, and a method. In order to achieve an improved flushing of the distributor vessel (2), it is proposed that the flushing device (3) comprise at least one gas feed (4) for the gaseous medium with at least one gas outlet opening (5) into the interior space (6) of the distributor vessel (2), and that the gas outlet opening (5) is integrated into the fire-resistant in-feed (2.1) of the distributor vessel (2) and/or into a built-in fire-resistant component (13) of the distribution vessel (2). It is proposed to carry out the flushing using inert gas and/or a combustible gas, wherein the combustible gas is detonated in the distribution vessel (2) and also binds oxygen. |
