Gas and oil fired crucible furnaces

Gas and oil fired crucible furnaces can be supplied with an automatic two stage high / low/ off control or a single stage high/off control packaged burner system. The refractory linings comprise of a hybrid of perlite boards (cold face) and refractory bricks on the walls and castables on floor. Leak detectors are provided at the drain out hole on the furnace floor and this serves to stop further melting operations should aluminium flow out of a broken crucible.

These features are available on all our tilting and bale out furnaces (electric, gas or oil fired). Suitable for melting aluminium and zinc.
