CONNECTION BETWEEN THE OUTLET OF A METALLURGICAL VESSEL AND A SHIELD TUBE OR IMMERSION NOZZLE

摘要

The seal is to be simplified and a leak monitor is to be produced in a connection between the outlet of a metallurgical vessel and a shield tube or an immersion nozzle connected thereto. Arranged above and below an annular space, to which inert gas is supplied, are compressible sealing rings. An indicating device monitors the gas pressure prevailing in the annular space.
