Application
The oxygen probe is an essential tool in the steelmaking industry, specifically designed to measure the temperature and active oxygen content in molten steel. Its primary applications include:
- Converter Operations: The probe is used in converters to monitor and control the oxygen levels during the steelmaking process, ensuring optimal conditions for chemical reactions.
- Ladle After Furnace: Post-furnace, the probe helps in maintaining the desired oxygen content in the ladle, which is crucial for the quality of the final product.
- Argon Blowing Station: At argon blowing stations, the probe aids in refining the molten steel by measuring and adjusting the oxygen levels.
- Refining Furnace: In refining furnaces, the probe ensures that the oxygen content is within the required range, which is vital for the efficiency of the refining process.
- Tundish: The probe is also used in tundishes to monitor the oxygen levels, which helps in preventing defects in the steel.
The ability to accurately and quickly measure the temperature and active oxygen content in molten steel makes this probe indispensable in the steelmaking process. It plays a critical role in product quality control and process optimization, providing steel mills with the data needed to improve both quality and efficiency.
Feature
The oxygen probe boasts several advanced features that make it a reliable and efficient tool for steelmaking:
- High Measurement Success Rate: With a success rate of up to 98%, the probe ensures that measurements are consistently accurate and reliable.
- Good Repeatability: The probe offers excellent repeatability, with an oxygen potential deviation of just ±3mV, ensuring consistent results across multiple measurements.
- High Accuracy: The probe provides highly accurate measurements, with a temperature deviation of only ±3℃, making it a precise tool for monitoring molten steel.
- Fast Response Time: The probe has a quick test time of 4-8 seconds, allowing for rapid data acquisition and real-time process adjustments.
- Versatility: The probe is available in different models to cater to various measurement needs, including medium and high oxygen probes, as well as low oxygen (fixed aluminum) probes.
These features collectively make the oxygen probe a robust and versatile tool, capable of meeting the demanding requirements of modern steelmaking processes.
Principle
The oxygen probe operates based on the principle of electrochemical measurement. The key components and their functions are as follows:
- Electrolyte: The probe contains a solid electrolyte that conducts oxygen ions. When the probe is immersed in molten steel, oxygen ions migrate through the electrolyte, creating a potential difference.
- Reference Electrode: A reference electrode is used to provide a stable reference potential. This allows for the accurate measurement of the oxygen potential in the molten steel.
- Measurement Electrode: The measurement electrode detects the potential difference created by the migration of oxygen ions. This potential difference is directly related to the oxygen content in the molten steel.
- Temperature Measurement: The probe also includes a thermocouple or other temperature-sensing element to measure the temperature of the molten steel. This temperature data is crucial for interpreting the oxygen potential measurements.
By combining these elements, the oxygen probe can accurately measure both the temperature and the active oxygen content in molten steel. The electrochemical principle ensures that the measurements are both precise and reliable, providing essential data for process control and quality assurance.
