Note 3: Loading Caution

When loading and unloading with forklift, additional wire rope must be used and steel wrapping tape can not be employed directly to fetch electrode.

2020-08-28

Note 5: Precautions Before Use

Electrodes should be dried next to electric furnace before using. The temperature should not exceed 120 °C and the time should not be less than 48 hours.

2020-08-28

Note 6: Wrapping Tape Cutting

When using electrode, special tools should be employed to cut the steel wrapping tape, and crane should not be adopted to avoid bursting.

Note 9: Hoisting Attention

Use revolved resilient hanger and put soft cushions under the electrode nipple to avoid breakage of thread.

2020-08-28

Note 10: Connection Caution

Before connecting, clean the screw thread of electrode with compressed air free of oil and water.

2020-08-28

Note 11: Nipple Connection

When connecting, the electrode is aligned with the center axis of the nipple to which is the connected.

2020-08-28

Note 12: Tighten the Electrode

Use special caliper to tight electrode according to rated torque by mechanical way, hydraulic pressure or wind pressure equipment should also be available.

Note 8: Electrode Thread Cleaning

Steel-wire ball, metallic brush or emery cloth is not allowed for cleaning electrode thread, but compressed air free of oil and water is available.

2020-08-28

Note 13: Electrode Clamp Position

Clamp holder should be placed out of the alarm line. (Note: clamp holder should not clamp at alarm line zone, or the middle of the electrode, as it is easy to cause the rupture of the electrode) Clamp holder and interfaces of the electrode must be cleaned regularly to keep good touch with electrode.

Note 14: Graphite Electrode Selection

To avoid the electrode breakage, insulating materials should not be put into the furnace. The working current of electrode must be conformity with the allowable current of electrode in the instructions.

2020-08-28

Note 15: Large Material Smelting

In order to avoid electrode breakage, put the large materials in lower part and small materials on the upper part.
