Gas-Fired Holding Furnace

Gas-Fired Holding Furnace

Product Details

The 62-GH gas-fired aluminum holding furnace was designed to fill the needs of customers who want a gas-fired holding furnace that fits the footprint of the popular Holimesy® electric holding furnace line but with greater metal temperature recovery capability. A great choice for the higher operating temperatures required in permanent mold and sand casting applications. Optional launder connectivity available.

Benefits

  • Maintenance-friendly burner location
  • Monitored temperature control
  • More comfortable for the operator when cleaning
  • Provides maximum heat retention
  • Recovery is much faster
  • Reduces the surface temperature of the steel shell over ambient with 1200°F metal
  • Stays Cleaner: Since there is no heat applied above the bath, there is virtually no oxide build-up at the bath line, and the surface remains undisturbed
  • The unique burner and blower combination allows nearly a ten-to-one turn-down ratio to eliminate metal temperature “creep-up” at low fire and still provide maximum metal temperature recovery at high fire

Features

  • A pneumatic roof opening mechanism is included providing easy access to the heating chamber for fluxing and cleaning
  • A variable speed blower is used to provide fully proportional firing for better temperature control and maximum energy savings
  • Different BTU/hour input packages are used on the standard sizes for different capacity furnaces providing better temperature control and energy savings. Additional packages are available with higher inputs for use on special, or non-standard, furnaces
  • The burner produces a flat flame pattern that promotes even heating by radiation from the roof and eliminates flame impingement on the bath, minimizing metal losses
  • The majority of the combustion train and the junction box are mounted on the top of the roof to free up valuable floor space
