SCCM ALP products

SCCM ALP water-cooled, long-life equipment for arc furnaces (EAF), blast furnaces and secondary metallurgy industries are designed to provide an economical and qualitative solution. SCCM ALP strives to provide high quality while guaranteeing the shortest possible delivery times. These products enable steel manufacturers to achieve a real gain in competitiveness. In addition to its technological “savoir-faire” of the manufacture of water-cooled elements (panels, ducts, vaults…), SCCM ALP stands out for its mastery of thermomechanics, which enables it to design its water-cooled products based on the characteristics of your installation, maximising thermal exchanges and preserving your infrastructures.

A water–cooled arc furnace vault consists of two main subassemblies: A one-piece tubular screen or a set of water-cooled panels. A structure ensuring the functions of water supply and support of the water-cooled panels and accessories. The vault is also equipped with an opening to receive : A vault door and vault in the central part for the passage of the electrodes. A water-cooled tubular elbow for the capture of fumes. Miscellaneous accessories (water-cooled launders, pressure tap, etc.). The design of a vault must take into account : The geometrical constraints for the installation of this auxiliary equipment. The multiple stresses to which the cooled elements are exposed (high thermal loads, mechanical shocks with scrap metal, etc.). The safety of use, maintenance and replacement operations of the water-cooled panels.

The converter hood is placed just above the converter or retort containing the feedstock to be treated and it ensures the capture of the fumes generated by the process.
