Assembly of a tapping device and a cooled inductor

摘要

An assembly includes a tapping device for flow therethrough of molten material and a cooled inductor to be connected to an electrical source and mounted with respect to the tapping device to be inductively coupled to one of the tapping device and the molten material flowing therethrough. The inductor includes an electrically conductive induction coil having therethrough at least one cooling passage. Each cooling passage has connected thereto at least one supply line for supply thereto of cooling fluid and at least one discharge line for discharge therefrom of the cooling fluids.
