The porous plugs installed in the hearth of an aluminum reverberatory furnace generate a bubbling of inert gas (argon or nitrogen) inside the furnace, stirring the metal causing an agitation and consequently a greater uniformity of temperature, speed of alloy and homogenization, with a partial degassing of the liquid metal.

The complete set includes:

  • Porous plugs distributed in the hearth (one or several units, depending on the bath surface).
  • Purge and gas dosing circuit with connection pipes to the plugs.
  • Control panel with individual system MFC (Mass Flow Controller) adjustable, for process agitation, degassing and automatic purge by-pass.
