Graphite electrode manufacturers teach you the correct use o

1. When selecting a graphite electrode diameter, refer to the allowable current load and current density of the electrode.

    2. The graphite electrodes should be protected from rain, snow and water during transportation and storage, and should be dried before use.

    3. During the loading and unloading and transportation of graphite electrodes, they should be handled gently to protect the threads and prevent shocks and damage. A special spreader can be used during loading and unloading.

    4. Before connecting new electrodes and connectors, the screw holes of the electrodes must be cleaned with compressed air, and then the connectors and electrodes should be installed as required. When the difference between the two electrical surfaces is 20-30mm, perform a second soot blow, and then tighten the electrode and connector.

    5. If the electrode is lifted with an iron connector, be sure to ensure that the connector screw does not deform and avoid damaging the electrode thread.

    6. When connecting the electrodes, use the torque value of the torque wrench to connect the motor.

    7. The electrode lifting equipment of the electric furnace should not be shaken during operation to prevent the electrode joints from being loosened, withdrawn or broken.

    8. The electrode holder must hold the electrode within the safety wire of the electrode.

    9. In order to prevent the electrode from being broken when the undissolved charge is collapsing, the electrode should be raised in time according to the dissolution situation, and the undissolved scrap steel is pushed into the furnace.
